Comment:	I'm sorry but this is just plain shabby. The verses you quote here look great in the context of your article, but in their proper Scriptural context they tell a different story. "And David said unto God, I am in a great strait: let me fall now into the hand of the Lord; for very great are His mercies: but let me not fall into the hand of man." Yes, God spared David, but He also killed 70,000 Israeli men and nearly took out Jerusalem as a result of David's sin. God is merciful but there are earthly consequences for our decisions. "When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, 'If any one of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her.'" ...and then Jesus said "Go and sin no more." You see, the correct response to the grace of God is repentance and regeneration, not to keep sinning and rebuke those who call you on it. As for Todd Bentley's marital failings, that was just the icing on the cake. His "revival" was Biblically unsupportable to an absurd degree. There have been no documented miracles, only anecdotal at best. He was teaching angel worship and praising proven heretic frauds like William Branham. I watched that circus many times and could not believe the things I was seeing and hearing. It was out and out heresy.
