Or so says proponents of Bill Johnson's Bethel Church revival meetings. Here they are:1. Begin at the 6:00 mark for a 20 second shot of the glory cloud:www.youtube.com/watch?v=tcPkOR4Lwj02.

Hmmm.They say people at Azusa Street saw a cloud, fire, etc. Was there anything like that in COG history

OTCPNothing in these videos that can be defended by scripture. Sorry it ain't there.

Some years ago I heard a lot about the gold dust. I heard Bob Shaddels (sp) once. I know he was into the gold dust. He did not mention it while he was preaching. Something did show on his suit while he preached. Don't know what or how.I was not impressed with the gold dust deal. However I was impressed when about 25 came forward for salvation during the altar invitation.They say it was signs and wonders. I admit it did make me wonder. I wondered where it came from and why.As one posted there is no Biblical support for this Recorded Sermons @ www.pastorwiley.com

I can understand and comprehend the visible presence of God's glory, but the gold dust and diamonds. I showed these to a local DJ and he says he uses the same special effects in a show.Notice that these manifestations were happening under carefully controlled lighting conditions.Like the whale said when he saw Jonah, I ain't a gonna swaller that.

CoG Meeting With Glory Cloud

I was invited to meet in a special pastors only meeting with T L Lowery a few years ago when he came to town for a meeting. It was him sitting in a chair facing 15-20 of us and he just spoke from his heart about the church and the importance of the demonstration of the Spirit in our worship services. After his mini-lecture he opened it up for any questions anyone wanted to ask him about anything concerning his almost 60 years of ministry.

I have the answer OT, It is indeed a Cloud ... But its a cloud of smoke from one of the megawatt amplifiers burning out....

Hey spartanfan...

My wife and I were in a meeting with one of the greatest men of God I have ever known. He was speaking at a church near us.I have been in meetings with him at other locations, including a meeting he conducted with the COG in Cleveland.This precious brother seemed to be bothered that night. Have no idea why.He laid hands on me and I fell under the power of the Spirit. He laid hands on my wife and she did not fall, so he attempted to push her down.I still love the brother and great respect for him. But I do not like being pushed.I had this happen to me at the church we attend a few months ago. I let my pastor know the man tried to push me down.I know I am off the subject. But I do not like display. Holy Spirit needs no display. He can do as the Father wills, when He wills Recorded Sermons @ www.pastorwiley.com
