Gamaliel's Advice in Acts 5:34-39 is crucial in all matters of this kind. If it is not God eventually it will come to nothing. If it is God, then we must not fight against Him. Therefore great wisdom is leaving matters like this in God's hands.

Many heretics have had highly successful careers fleecing God's sheep. I think part of making sure it comes to nothing is challenging heresy wherever we find it.
I don't know that this is heresy. I'm not interested in it enough to study it. I personally do not like any big revival service which focuses on anything other than than preaching the saving grace of Jesus Christ. Huge signs & wonders pep rallies make me nauseous. Flash over wisdom, style over substance. Maybe thats just me though and God can certainly perform healing and other miracles. I just don't think He does it on our schedule.

We can't proof text for our beliefs.. Scripture, as a whole, says otherwise when it comes to leaving things alone.

It's like trying to patch a series of holes in a dike, just as soon as one is addressed, another pops up. Invariably, people don't care if the Bible is contradicted or if things totally out of Christian character is done, as long as it FEELS spiritual and/or exciting, then it must be from Jesus.
The question, I've learned, is always, "Which Jesus?" God nor His chosen servants contradict His revealed scripture.

I was reading something by J. Lee Grady about this and we as Christians need to be careful of this sort of thing. This may be the new thing, however, there is some concern about this and movements like this because they bring people out of the woodwork offering false hope.

my pastor has just invited people in our church to come along and watch it every night at church and participate in the "revival". I don't know what to think about it and what to say about it as I don't agree with some of the people associated. What would you do or say? My husband is on the church board and thinks I am making too much of this.
