| Charismatic (Continued from page 1) husband. Freeman goes on to say in his book that, § g “Those who humbly seek the truth of the validity of | this doctrine will see it; those who have prejudiced S g the question in the negative on the basis of their :g theological background, prejudice or rational $ § argument, will be unable to receive it." Also in the “Faith for Healing" book, Freeman $ $ terms the idea that sickness comes from God as a**§ § “blessing in disguise" as unscriptural. He writes $ “This cannot be supported from scripture and is a £ ❖ direct hindrance to faith for healing." Freeman § | goes on to say that all pain and sickness come from & Satan, citing examples of Jesus casting out demons from the afflicted. $ 'Charismatic* £ In reference to the Faith Assembly the term S x "charismatic renewal" Is often used. The & >: charismatic movement is a religious movement $ $ which practices and believes In “speaking In & $ tongues." When this occurs an individual speaks an £ unintelligible phrase, which another member of the £ < congregation interprets. The belief Is that the $ unintelligible phrase comes directly from God. £ $ The Other Side £ S A position paper from the Christian church $ § denounces the charismatic movement. It says that § $ tongue speaking is actually mass hypnosis, citing a •$: study that when a strong leader Is present the :< $ members speak like him and they stopped speaking $ J In tongues when they disassociate themselves from 3 § the leader. The paper says that, "Studies show it has none § S of the characteristics of a language; the same £ S expressions are often translated differently; and $ there is no correlation between the number of g words spoken and the length of the interpretation." x The Christian position Is that tongue speaking s 3 occurs in non-Christian religions and spiritualism. $ And a book on "How to" speak in tongues has been £ § published. % 3 § Another subject of the movement, healing, Is 3 commented on In the paper, saying, "No one In the £ 3 New Testament ever felt called to a healing x ministry." And It separates praying for the sick 3 x from the healing. The paper goes on with, “Since g x ‘gifts of healing' appear only In I Corinthians (and £ 3 then only three times) and never in the epistles of £ Peter and John or any other of the epistle of Paul, g ;■ or in Hebrews, we ought not to make much of that S $ which God makes very little." $ Second Coming $ Members of the Faith Assembly are preparing £ for the second coming, as forseen in the Book of # $ Revelations in the Bible. Greider has stated that he $ S believes himself and the congregation will be part | of the “manchild" that is removed from earth | :$ before destruction begins. g
