God is a not the author of confusion, He is a God of peace, -
also of ORDER.

1 Corinthians 14:26-40
26 How is it then, brethren? when ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation,
hath an interpretation.
Let all things be done unto edifying.
27 If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and that by course; and let one interpret.
28 But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God.
29 Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge.
30 If any thing be revealed to another that sitteth by, let the first hold his peace.
31 For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be comforted.
32 And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.
33 For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.
34 Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law.
35 And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.
36 What? came the word of God out from you? or came it unto you only?
37 If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord.
38 But if any man be ignorant, let him be ignorant.
39 Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues.
40 Let all things be done decently and in order.
Colossians 2:5
For although I am absent from you in body, I am present with you in spirit, and I delight to see your orderly condition and firm faith in Christ.
Do any of those videos shown by examples portray God in such a manner?
What about the bystanders, that are witnesses to events like this?
If unbelievers was to see this?
also of ORDER.

If unbelievers was to see this?
Do they see these happenings as peaceful, or as total chaos, with lots of confusion?
Would this event make God look good, or bad? ...
People falling over, shaking and twitching - does God injure people?
How is this in ANY way edifying for the church of GOD?
- It's not, and if one of the people are seriously injured, even unto death, would it still be?
I have heard some of the screams, after seeing some videos, - and a few of them are screams in terror and agony,
and not screams of joy, in any way.
Yes, the spiritual world is real, yes - spiritual experiences are real -
but I have high doubts that it is the Spirit of God that is working in many of these events,
as it seems to contradict Scripture, and sound teaching.
So .... SLAIN in the Spirit.....
No thank you.....
