And as it is often with social media-proliferated 'news', especially with spiritual matters (for all are looking for hope somewhere, but only a few looking for it in Christ)—there are three camps: the Easily Excited, the Rarely Ignited, and the Wisely Incited.
The Easily Excited are all heart with no head; ready to believe, praise, and support Kanye West, Benny Hinn, and other well-known people and groups who profess repentance and faith in Jesus Christ. Emotion is prime and easy believism is promoted, though it may be unintentional.
The Rarely Ignited are all head with no heart; ready to disparage and discredit claims that any well-known person or groups can truly be converted. Detached opinions are prime while a gate narrower than Christ ordained is promoted, though it may be unintentional.
The Wisely Incited are head and heart; ready to test all matters with the Word of God (1 Jn 4:1, 2 Pt 2:1-3), being quick to heed the Holy Spirit's counsel, slow to speak (approve or disapprove), and slow to insist on his/her own opinion(s), with compassionate intentionality (Js 3:17-18).
By God's mercy and grace, such is my darling husband, Jim. Please read and heed and give thanks to God for granting such wisdom to a mere man.🙌💝🙌

As with all things, honor Christ as Lord in your hearts. Before you believe or disbelieve, approve or disapprove of anything, obey the LORD: Pray, Wait, Pray, Watch, Pray, Exult Christ!
