| Résumé : |
Christian leaders spanning the spiritual spectrum proclaim that we are now in the midst of the greatest revival in human history. In their haste to embrace this great awakening, multitudes are instead becoming ensnared in a great apostasy. Thousands testify to experiencing powerful psychological and physical manifestations. These experiences are so "real” that many key evangelical Christian leaders are convinced they cannot be explained apart from the power and presence of the Holy Spirit.
The appeal is so staggering that churches on every continent are inviting their people to '‘experience" God in a brand-new way. The form and function of the church is being so radically rearranged that even the secular world has taken note. Time magazine pointed out that sanctuaries throughout the world are littered with bodies as "supplicants sob, shake, roar like lions and strangest of all, laugh uncontrollably.” Newsweek reported that this behavior has spread to “roughly 7,000 congregations in Hong Kong, Norway, South Africa, and Australia plus scores of churches in the United States.” Counterfeit Revival documents the danger of looking for God in all the wrong places. As leaders of the Counterfeit Revival employ socio-psychological manipulation tactics, their subjects are trapped in a dangerous web of subjectivism. No one is immune to the force of mass suggestion. Once this epidemic contaminates a movement, it can make black appear white, obscure realities, and enshrine absurdities. In full force it strikes intellectuals as well as the ignorant, rich, and poor alike. Pagan religions and pseudo-Christian cults have long capitalized on slight of hand and slight of mind to promote their practices. Today counterfeit Revival leaders are following in their footsteps. The author exposes the stark contrast between the deeds of the flesh and a genuine work of the Spirit. |
