First off, I know little about Bethel other than they have very good music. I began reading about some of their beliefs and practices. I have to say, some seem odd if not unusual.I always attempt to keep an open mind about things. But, if it is not found in the Word of God, then it’s case closed.That said, supposedly Bethel advocates grave sucking or sucking the anointing from anointed dead people.Without this devolving into a heresy witch hunt with nastiness, can someone confirm or deny that practice?
I have not read anything from Bethel regarding the topic of your post. That being said, it surely would not surprise me as they have wandered far into areas that are so unbiblical that I would never endorse or support them.A simple GOOGLE search will tell you all you need to know, if you’re interested. Any group that promotes the appearance of gold dust and feathers is not for me________________“Hell will be filled with people that didn’t cuss, didn’t drink, and may even have been baptized. Why? Because none of those things makes someone a Christian.”

Consider the source (L)
Always consider the source but there seems to be more than one case where people from Belthel go and lay down on top of graves to try and get the dead persons anointing. I think they try to justify it with the story of Elisha’s bones found in 2 Kings 13:21youtu.be/6wKPjf1mjb8
Ain’t it the truth! ________________Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]/
‘Grave sucking’ is just the next logical step which follows the widespread belief that one’s ministry gifting or anointing can be ‘transferred’ to another. Those who practice ‘grave sucking’ typically attempt to base it on how Elisha’s bones had the ability to bring a dead man back to life in 2 Kings 13:21
I find it funny that a group of pentecostals is hammering someone for pure charismaniac idiocy. I’ve grown up in pentecostal churches my entire life and have seen a BUNCH of charismaniac idiocy.
So someone takes a photo of Bill Johnson at the grave Mrs Wigglesworth and assume he is grave sucking. I listened to Bryan Cutshall today, what does this say of me. Oh never mind Bryan is Cog so all is well.Yes I saw the stupid students lying on graves. Question do you identify the Cog by every stupid things Lee students do?I have pastored a few stupid people that does not mean everyone I pastored was stupid________________Recorded Sermons @ http://www.pastorwiley.com
Can an anointing rest in a hanky?

Brad the thing that amazes me about the hanky is the fact that some have taken the story of Paul and made a doctrine of it and un-anoninted people send un-anointed hankys around the world.Un-anointe handys are for blowing un-anointed noses and wiping un-anointed faces. ________________Recorded Sermons @ http://www.pastorwiley.com
