This is how 1 Thessalonians 5:21,22 reads. "But examine everyting carefully; hold fast to that which is good; vs22, abstain from every form of evil." (NASB).
The following is what kenneth hagin said. "Christ's physical death on the cross was not enough to save us. (How Jesus obtainined His Name, cassette #44-H01)
"Physical death would not remove our sins. He tasted death for every man--spiritual death. Jesus is the first person ever to be born again. Why did HIS spirit need to be born again? Because it was estranged from God. (The Name of Jesus, 29,30.)
Next I am going to give quotes by kenneth copeland who expands on what hagin taught copeland. And btw, these quotes are not taken out of context, they really believe and teach this stuff to their followers.
"The righteousness of God was made to be sin. He accepted the sin nature of Satan in His own spirit. And at the moment that He did so, He cried, "My God, My God, why hast thou forsaken Me?" You don't know what happened at the cross. Why do you think Moses, upon the instruction of God, raised a serpent up on that pole instead of a lamb? That used to bug me. I said, "why in the world would you want to put a snake up there - the sign of Satan? Why didn't you put a lamb up on that pole?" And the Lord said, "Because it was the3 sign of Satan that was hanging in the cross." He said, "I accepted in my own spirit, spiritual death, and the light was turned off." (Kenneth Copeland, "What Happened from the Cross to the Throne" (Fort Worth, TX; Kenneth Copeland Ministries, 1990). audiotape #02-0017, side 2.)
The following is a prophecy by copeland: "Don't be disturbed when peiple put you down and speak harshly and roughly of you. They spoke that way of Me, should they not speak that way of you? The more you get to be like Me, the more they're going to think that way of you. They crucified Me for claiming that I was God. But I didn't claim I was God; I just claimed I walked with Him and that He was in Me. Hallelujah." (Kenneth Copeland, Take Time to Pray, Believer's Vocie of Victory 15, 2 (February 1987).
Now the question is, how do we prove all things and abstain from the appearance of evil with the above quotes? Or has wanderer stated, how are we to "eat the meat and spit out the bones" in these statements? PS: More quotes are forthcoming!
