Somehow I knew when I was writing my own reply that you were going to use the Elijah example. Call it 'developing my seer ability'.

Elijah is mocking the prophets of Baal. You were goading all of those ordinary people, ordinary believers, who spoke up for TB, who were 'vociferous'. You asked 'Where are you?' In doing so, you are belittling the many sincere people who were genuinely taken in by Lakeland. We have all been taken in by things at some stage in our lives. Mishel, who started this site, was deceived and taken in by charismatic ministries. I was taken in by a ministry for ten years. Thank God, when my eyes were opened, I didn't have to suffer mocking taunts from those who had seen the light before me, but genuine understanding. Direct your fire by all means against those shepherds who have done the deceiving, but not against the deceived sheep.
