They had someone focus on the serial numbers on a 20 dollar bill (they are all differeny), and she read his mind and said the exact numbers. She also had people focus on his name and she said it aloud. It was just...so weird. And I'm not sure if it is demonic or ESP is something some people can do. |

I now recall watching this. They also made broken clocks work again. They bent spoons all with the aide of the audience and a group of children gathered together onstage. They also telivised a live seance.
According to God the only way a prophet can be a prophet is if they are accurate about everyting they project all of the time. Now on the show, each psychic testified that their "gift" does not always work. One has to seriously believe in their ability and "project the image from the mind". When they demonstrated the table rocking around the table they made the requirements for the volunteers: any of those who have been successful in using the oujia. This is not 100% accuracy and the messages delivered by the oujia are not from God.
I realize that this would fool some into the belief that these people had the power to read minds, channel spirits, and bend inanimate objects to their will. These people do not have this power. These are the puppets of satan being used as a form of proof. They themselves discredited their abilities yet some people still think this is amazing and dismiss when the medium is wrong. God has never lied. Remember this when trying to realize what is of God and what is not of God.
Mind control was also publicly demonstrated when the hypnotist hypnotised people over a great distance. He hypnotised them and a woman walked over top of them. This was an obvious form of mind control! The male participants didn't even know what happened when they awoke from their trance!
This is evil at work in full force in public view. And for crying out loud they used children to "appropriate" some of the demonstrations! This is sick and twisted! My question is where are these kid's parents? I felt as if I were going to be sick.

It's trickery. It's meant to be trickery. Nothing to see here, move along folks...

Also, they did a John Edwards things. They asked us if anyone here had lost someone a long time ago. And one lost her grandma 12 years ago. So she went on stage, they did some kind of hand motion, and someone took a polaroid picture...and in it was the girl, and behind her was the face of her grandmother... |

One could percive it in this manner of course. Anyone can be tricked at anytime in their life. Remember though that satan is liar and he uses any means necessary to trick us. |

This was easily noticed by many when it occurred. Being an Infantry Grunt in the snowy 10th Mountain Division one of the major points of cold weather training was if you were lost one of the first thing you should do is tunnel into a snowbank.
Why? Ever wonder why some Eskimo's build igloo's out of Ice?
The body heat melts the surface of the ice/snow and seals the ice/snow into a solid wall. Then a person's body heat is sealed into the compartment keeping you nice and warm and toasty (very warm and toasty). The only stamina Blaine had to have was enough to stay standing that whole time...he was actually wet when he came out (that wasn't melted ice, it was sweat). He wouldn't have been cold at all.

All of his illusions are slight of hand and there are perfectly good explanations for all of them. I do many of the same illusions, and trust me, he is doing things in a natural way. |  | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode | | | |
