"Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world." - James 1:27

I pass no personal judgment, for GOD HIMSELF is Judge, The Lord JESUS CHRIST HIMSELF is Lawgiver, but beware! These prophecies have been and are being fulfilled, this is the word of GOD, ", Thy word is truth". Praise GOD! YAHWEH reigns!

"For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect." - Matthew 24:24

"For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works." - 2 Corinthians 11:13-15

"And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not." - 2 Peter 2:2-4

"Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. " - 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4,

"For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness." - 2 Thessalonians 2:7-12

"And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live." - Revelation 13:13-14

"And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone." - Revelation 19:20

Make no mistake, The Lord GOD is The miracle working GOD, but where there is The Original, there are virtually always counterfeits, some of which (as in this case), are/is detrimental! The only truth is contained in the infallible word of GOD, thus, search the holy Scriptures,, "watch and pray." The Kingdom of Heaven is near, "even at the doors"

"God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged." - Romans 3:4

"The LORD is righteous in all his ways, and holy in all his works." - Psalm 145:17

I believe in miracles an a living proof,but doesn't this one seem untrue? How can I shadow strike down someone in the name of the anointing,or special move from God.
Do we now follow practical signs instead of the word of God,is this whole show upĀ  necessary? Can't we accept and have faith in God without all the show up.does the show up strengthens our faith or take us far away from believing.

There is diffent between Demonstration of the spirit and show. This is teaching Christians about what they have within.

1 Corinthians 2:4-5
4 And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: 5 That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.


It's important to demonstrate the power of God .Christianity without the supernatural is like any other dead religion. The kindom is not in word only

1 Thessalonians 1:5
5 For our gospel came not unto you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Ghost . . .

Very true that christianity is about power. It is about the power of the christian priesthood over the minds and souls of the poor but faithful sheeple, through the effective use of deceptive doctrines based on ancient middle eastern desert mythologies . Quite accurate.

Just wondering about the same thing. What if Oprah Winfrey organizes the same stage shows, arranges a mammoth crowd from her shows, lines up a few odd gals and guys, and passes by to let her shadow fall on them - with exactly or even more dramatic results to on lookers? What's the whole point in this show?

Why is it that it is healthy people who have no ailments that are made to stand and keel over after the shadow hits them? How do those allign with Acts 5:15-16??

[list]Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them. There came also a multitude out of the cities round about unto Jerusalem, bringing sick folks, and them which were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed every one.[/list]

Where are the healings from sicknesses and unclean spirits? Why are people often amazed by display without results?

^^My dear,
This kind of thing happens very often.
In our meetings, many get healed instantly just by sighting the MOG.
It's the power of God's Spirit. . . so don't be offended.

What a wonderful life we have, Christianity is all of it about power otherwise it's not Christianity, Paul put it right, The kingdom of God is not in word, but in power.1st Corinthians 4v20. Jesus concluded it all, when He said, behold I give unto you power, Luke10v19, How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power, Acts10v38. Are you born again, full of the Holy Ghost then go demonstrate the power it's in you, put the devil to where it belongs.

Let's not be mistaken this power is inherent in every Christian, it's not a show we put on,it's just that a lot of Christians are still in the dark about who they are in christ,it's like a 300 kva engine being used to power a self contained apartment,so much power but little knowledge of it's capacity.

So, have you done any healing with your shadow?
Re: Christianity Is About Power by Enigma(m): 12:04pm On Sep 02, 2011
I would have thought that the video in the opening post would have been confirmation to anyone still doubting that this Oyakhilome fellow is a real charlatan. Does any sensible or right thinking or biblically informed person think the charade we see in that opening post is anything to do with genuine Christianity?

Unbelievable! sad

Do your Christian brethren (not pastors) heal with their shadows also?
