Imagine that you are an airplane pilot.
Did you know for every single degree you fly off course, you will miss your target landing spot by 92 feet for every mile you fly.
Now you time this by 60 miles and now you are just about one mile off of your target landing spot.
Add another 60 miles and you will be just about 2 miles off. Another 60 would be about 3 miles off.
Suppose that you wanted to fly around the earth's equator and you were just one degree off, you would be about 500 miles off of your target. This is what pilots call, "the vector effect."
Now let us apply this "vector effect" to someone who is trying to teach or preach something that they think is of God, but in reality it's a doctrine started by man, than that church would experience a vector effect.
I personally believe that speaking in tongues is still for today. Now there are some churches who believe that tongues have already ceased.
Now because of somebody's misunderstanding, a vector effect is taking place. Somebody is going off course.
Or what about divine healing. Some will teach and preach that divine healing is of the past, while others teach and preach that it is still for today. Again a vector factor will take place.
Same thing about of whether you can lose your salvation. Some say you can while other say that you can't. Again there will be a vector factor.
This is why some churches are flying way off course. It is not because they want to preach error, but it's because of misunderstanding of the Word of God. And we all, including myself, can experience a vector effect at one time or another when it come to understanding the Bible like we want to.
