The Abuse of the Holy Spirit | Costi Hinn | EP 147

[@Titus2BibleStudy]

From someone coming out of the Pentecostal/charismatic movement, this is so desired and needed in my life!!

[@natg_37]

Mee too😢

[@darlenestokan8021]

Be encouraged. I came out of spiritual abuse years ago. You will become free of those experiences-it just takes the truth of the Word and time!

[@natg_37]

@@darlenestokan8021 I hope you heal.🕊

@JC-du6sn The Bible gives better exames and life lessons.

[@purpleluna8413]

I did too During Covid began watching Redeemer Bible Church, Gilbert Arizona where Costi and some other awesome men pastor check out on FB) Also found a church that only teaches the Bible, found on their home Web page couldn't believe nit only Australia but my town Can I recommend Spencer Smith his 3rd Adam series is a eye opener

[@bettycarmella1127]

I was raised like this… all the bells and whistles of charismania… it’s interesting how easily I moved from this to being a full on witch, it’s like my mind was already primed🫣 Praise God for saving me from this madness🙏🏽

[@CassandraJohnson2023]

Thank you for doing this. Thanks to you, John MacArthur, Justin Peters, and Voddie Baucham. You all help my husband and I realize the truth and get out of a church that was not biblical.

[@robinpatrick9787]

Amen!

[@Diamond-eq2xj]

They act like pharisees and bullies but go off. They wait around for someone to be human and make a mistake and try to profit off of embarrassing them and “calling them out” people like them make me happy God didn’t bless me with a mic in my hand because if I had to deal with Christians like that id be too discouraged to preach

[@jozzen77]

Left my WoF/Prosperity theology church this month, this comes in great timing, thank you Costi!

[@emmanueloshaddai3259]

Well done brother. May God bless you on your journey

[@turkeybobjr]

Glad you got out, brother!

[@cmsdiego40]

Praise God you’re out!! 🙌🙌🙏

[@JesusSavesBySacrifice]

I was in a pentecostal charismatic church for about 7-8 years and I taught much false doctrine myself. I'm out of that false church and am grieved heavily on what I said to people. I was after an experience and a free ticket to Heaven but didn't care or really know scripture well I am extremely thankful that God brought me out of that doctrines of demons church.

[@Micah-kbluezr]

Amen!

[@anthonystroman8407]

Thank God.

[@JuniesWorld14]

I’m so glad your starting this series. As someone who recently came out of the Pentecostal holiness movement, I really want to understand the role of the Holy Spirit better.

[@carlottaforJesus]

read the bible and do not rely on man. going from one teach to another is unwise. the Holy Ghost is right there with you if you're saved.

[@thembamaselane5885]

The Holy Spirit has placed gifted, empowered men who are immersed in the Scripture and are sound doctrinally, some have left us their impartation in their writings as they lived hundreds of years ago while others live today are even within our community of believers. To eliminate role of other people filled with the Holy Spirit speaking to my life is as dangerous as the warning you have just given which is cultic, entrusting my spiritual development into a personality is idolatry, eliminating the role of sound teachers can lead to mysticism so let's rather strive for balance. Now if my comment betrays a misunderstanding of what you ment you have my humble apology

[@natg_37]

Please continue exposing these evil wicked pleople.

[@FrankOWahl]

I can hardly make it through the clips. My "post charismatic stress disorder" kicks in. 😬 like nails on a chalk board.

[@oztheberean]

Lol, same!

[@rhodanicholson450]

I know what you mean 😢. These things started coming into our church too. We've been gone for a few years but it's hard to watch this.

[@JesusIsKING7140]

😂🤣😂🤣😂😭😭😭🙏✝️

[@rickiilatino]

The clips should be as short as possible. 5% clip 95% word of God ✝️

[@OlgaSmirnova1]

What the hell is that? 😮

[@Rosa-vh6ct]

I’m so grateful to God that I found this series. I’ve been praying and for some more clarification on this topic. I came from a Pentecostal/Charismatic background (my family still believes that way). I gave up that life and, for the last few years, am now Reformed even reading the Bible cover to cover like never before. I thank God for showing me the truth through His Word. Keep up the good work. I look forward to more videos. Thanks!

[@sphtu8]

I came from a charismatic background, too. Yes, let's keep reading, meditating, loving the Bible! Thank God for teachers like Costi. ✝️

[@Hoguehollerhomestead]

I am also from the same background, my family and friends still there but God brought me and my husband to a church that is reformed after He began reveling these truths while reading His word. I am amazed at how much I believed from a pulpit because I wasn't encouraged to read my Bible. When you do it is all revealed.

[@gsweets]

This is why I will never stop learning church history. Plus I'm a theology nerd 🤓 I absolutely Love God my Father! It is my job to raise up my children and deciple and council them as best I can. Under my husband's headship. As for a church, I have been praying for a year since we had to move a few states away... for a sound church. So far we have seen lgbtq churches and a lot of other issues I will not attend because of. It has been hard. I pray for a church family and community 🙏 ❤

[@Kra-ri6fd]

I found pastor Brett Meador at Athey Creek online to be a wonderful Bible pastor...he goes book by book, chapter by chapter and has a teaching on every book of the Bible because he's been doing that for a decade or two. I won't ever trust a pastor 100 percent but this one I trust the most. He wants everyone to have their Bible when he starts and encourages a Berean attitude to studying. He has a women's study and a men's study called Iron works to help each sex grow as God designed for us. He even covers Biblical prophecy on the first Friday of every month. Please look in to him. His church exploded after he refused to close during covid. Many found him then, including me. I believe you'll like him a lot.

[@carolberubee]

Thank you, Costi! I'm looking forward to this series. It's very telling when we compare the "manifestation of the spirit" at places like Bethel with the "manifestations" of Hindu devotees. They are identical, complete with "speaking in tongues" (gibberish).

[@tomtemple69]

Um actually that's tongues of angels 1 Corinthians 13:1, 1 Corinthians 14:2 says no one understands him and he speaks to God so that HAS to mean it's not an actual language and there's no way of proving that wrong cuz you cant tell if something is actually an angelic language so i can get around the fact that its not an actual language like tongues was in acts 2

[@stevehardwick7285]

You've been misled, pray for discernment.@@tomtemple69

[@01Camillag]

Looking forward to this series! Such a needed teaching. Thank you for SOUND doctrine.

[@maryowen1722]

It makes me tremble how flippantly and sacrilegiously they speak about Almighty GOD!!!!

[@ilsebaunjensen104]

Thank you, Costi Hinn. There is nothing like the Truth 😊❤

[@rhondarussell688]

Thank you so much for this EXCELLENT teaching and explanation. I'm free from this 3 yrs come this OCTOBER. PRAISE GOD. I just feel so sick when I see it and so thankful that I and my husband was rescued. Still growing in the truth. It's so hard to find a solid church.

[@MiniMaker68]

Being raised in the deception of pentacostalism, I was even told that we test the spirits by our feelings, until I was loosed from that deceptive trap, I really thought I was so gifted in discernment, (as most of my family, still do ) because I "felt" so much, but when I came into the knowledge of His true Holiness, I realize, we believe through FAITH, not of Feelings, I wish my family who still swim in that would just answer my questions , (which they never give me scripture when I did get to ask, when they used to talk to me) But my question would be, If you Never "felt" the spirit again, if you never fell out in the spirit again, if you never felt so connected to a song, would you still believe? Sometimes Gods ways are hard to accept, so I pray for the Lord to help me accept His ways, even if I don't like it, but in searching myself, I find that my own experiences, were Not Biblical, so my question to you, Is this spirit they feel, of the enemy? And do I disregaurd my experiences? Thank you, I have been following you since I seen American Gospel, thank you for your obedience to our Heavenly Father, and the Holy Trinity!

[@tomtemple69]

Yeah I'm convinced half of them would stop believing if they never "felt" anything anymore and just had to rely on Scripture and faith

[@MiniMaker68]

I agee, I remember using music and acting excited to get others in the "Mood" to worship, but I am thankful now that I know the Holy, and just what that means, :)@@tomtemple69

[@audreyhehr7508]

This is such a greatly needed teaching. Thank you.

God bless you Costi for speaking the TRUTH!

[@beelos1982]

Amen brother great discernment I’m blessed that he gives you a gift to teach , preach and discern this mess others teach correctly dividing the word of God as we should . Grace and peace.

[@kaykay9458]

I cannot comprehend watching that poor boy writhing and screaming on the floor and not knowing that is demonic and not at all of the Lord. This is disturbing.

[@lisfong]

Wow - I can't even tell you how excited I am for this series! Thank you Costi!

[@cateclism316]

One reason I am no longer a Pentecostal is the utter absence of discernment. And if you try to introduce discernment you get branded as a "Calvinist", "Intellectual", "heresy hunter", etc.

[@thecrew777]

Praise God!!! I've been waiting some 40 plus years to hear this! Thank you, Costi! Subscribed on this video. So glad I caught the first one. I hope to see them all.

[@tuppence144]

If this angers me, imagine how it must grief the Holy Spirit. 😢

[@KeithGregory-uz2yo]

When I relocated to coolgardie in my I did a huge review of my theology . Costis books were essential reading

[@JohnnyCreighton]

Very hard for me to watch these clips. Breaks my heart and makes me very uncomfortable. Looking forward to the series though! Glory be to God.

[@ylecaraparr2102]

So thankful for your teaching brother Costi. I have your book on preorder, can’t wait!

[@jennamarielovesjesus12]

I’m so happy that God saved you out of the prosperity gospel, so not only is HE allowing you to expose all that FALSE , but also to preach the TRUTH . You are an amazing awesome man of God and I will continue to pray for your uncle because I know you love him and obviously also because we are to pray for everyone especially those in leadership because we know they will be judged more strictly Love u Pastor Hinn and you have a Beautiful wife and beautiful children, you’re truly Blessed🙏🏼✝️

I really appreciate what you have presented here and I found it very interesting - very coherent and well referenced. Looking forward to the following podcasts. Thank you.

[@thomasramey2997]

I have been blessed and privileged enough to be under teaching on the Holy Spirit for the vast majority of my life where it was emphasize that He is not to be taken lightly, He is to be revered, obeyed and loved. He is not a side show or used as a means of being silly or drawing attention to ourselves. He is HOLY and should be seen as such!

[@DougMcMinn-zm1pm]

Thank you Costi - much needed teaching yes but the comfort that understanding provides once clearly understood means the soul is being nourished in the warfare of today

so clear, Costi!🔥

[@rebeccacoffman3497]

One way people get caught up in this craziness is the fact that most people are hurting and broken and they just fall apart as they're being instructed to do this or that.

[@andk2846]

That clip from Baker was heartbreaking.

[@TrangNguyen-vc3yk]

Scary what these false teachers are doing!!! Beyond words.

[@bronzewing1965]

Needed this Costi. I pray and thank God, Jesus and The Holy Spirit.... Im so peaceful and happy, and still praying to stop my Apostle Peter's big mouth 😒 Im getting there. 😊 When i see this blasphemy from these people, i see nothing but a meeting run by Satan with multitudes BLASPHEMING THE HOLY SPIRIT. Its evil, and using Him to gain filthy lucre and lose millions to eternal DAMNATION. 😢... praying these people see through this before its too late and they lose their souls... 😭

[@MartinAsh785]

These chaotic behaviours is nothing but power of suggestion and hypnosis.

[@tomtemple69]

Yes the charismatic churches remind me so much of the Corinthian church Super spiritual but still very disorderly and babies when it comes to the truth of Scripture

[@SojournerDidimus]

You are being very (perhaps too?) charitable Costi.

Is is why I will never let anyone lay their hands on me that I am not for certain that they are Godly. Demons just use folks like these as tools

[@tomtemple69]

Only the apostles could impart the Spirit or the gifts by laying on of hands

[@TraciBeneathMyHeart]

So excited about this!!!

[@mimipopova404]

Thank you, brother Costi, for the timely video on such an important topic! Watching these fragments from Bethel and H. Baker made my stomach hurt 😞, as I’ve been into this madness for 7 years. Thanks God for His saving grace! But I still have one unanswered question regarding the baptism in the Holy Spirit, pointed out by apostle Paul in Acts 19:1-7. There are many people in the churches, who confesses to believe in Jesus, but have no power in themselves to live a holy life, which comes only through the Holy Spirit, living in us. The disciples also needed the Holy Spirit, to be able to fulfil their calling. So, what is the practical implication of this in nowadays and how the churches, which are not charismatic or Pentecostal, suppose to do it? Thank you.

[@jennamarielovesjesus12]

I don’t know when you started this KZbin channel but you should have over 500K followers for sure, I pray that GOD will do just that 🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@samanthahammondsrealtor]

19:10 RED FLAG! If I say God help me, that’s out to the TRIUNE GOD! That’s the Father , Son and HOLY SPIRIT, this guy literally discredited the TRIUNE GOD!

[@daniel.d2150]

They have no self control 2 Corinthians.10:3-6 3For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: 4(For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) 5Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; 6And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.

[@mresab1997]

It’s important to bear in mind, when Jesus outlines the duties of the Spirit before He is given, he states that the Spirit is there to do three things: reprove the world of sin, the need for righteousness, of the coming Judgement (John 16:8). And only a few verses behind that in (3), he is said *not* to speak of Himself. The Charismatic movement is nothing short of *Ancient Montanism*

[@dgh5223]

This why it’s important to read and study the Bible for yourself and don’t trust just anyone who calls themself a preacher. They can lead you wrong.

[@janetdavis6473]

I’ve seen this Heidi Baker clip before. Absolutely horrifying!

[@DoctrinePolice]

1 Tim 4:1-5 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving: For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.

[@mariabelman734]

Thank you so much for this Costi, keep teaching the true word of God.

[@jocelynarcentales]

Wow… so good!

[@sharonevans8504]

My husband and I left a church that believed Jesus was in modes one time God and then turned into the Holy Spirit. If they believe that that way they unsaved and not going to Heaven? Our focus of our faith has to be on Jesus Christ and Him Crucified! The Holy Spirit will only work in those perimeters.

[@BillyAddair]

Good word

[@patsyw6477]

Where is anything even remotely like this taught in the Bible? This is why this type of "pastor" doesn't teach the Bible. If they taught the Bible people would know this isn't Christianity. It's so sad that these young people will end up being disillusioned and walk away from who they thought was God. I was raised in the AOG and they never taught anything like this.

[@daneilstewart6082]

Facts I got to an AOG right and we don’t teach like this

[@briankady1456]

That shaking and convulsing you see is kundalini, based in Hinduism.

[@edwinrivera5377]

The Lord is the spirit 2 cor 3:17

[@Williamb612]

Love how Ms Baker said before she started that what she was going to say would sound a little weird…as I everything else she says does not 😐

[@slycescott]

Yeah that impartation video snippet from Bethel was probably one of the most disturbing things I've ever seen in spiritually. As far as I'm concerned that church should be shut down

[@christinawilliams1456]

We are in the biblical end times. Get saved and rapture ready now!

[@charlynesimms9451]

I've heard a pastor before he preaches, he calls/becons or seemingly conjuring up the Holy Spirit. Went so far to say, Jesus is here now 2x? Wouldn't they know that?

[@FallingMoonXoffical]

I think I got second hand trauma from those clips. The clip with that guy screaming and convulsing on the ground brought me to tears. So disgusting, I don’t know how people think that convulsing and screaming is from the holy spirit. I believe that the gifts can be present today, but the kind of stuff in these clips is just unhinged demonic behavior.

[@eastherrodriguez3046]

Costi thank you. Your teaching is an eye opening. Can you please tell me? I was planning to go to Israel on October 2 until .... I cannot remember the date will finish. It is related with Jerusalem House of prayer for All Nations. They are arranging a conference and one of the speaker is Heidi Baker. I don't know the other speakers. Can you please inquire about it? I don't want to be part of false teachings. Thank you so much.

[@lorainabogado]

Poor Holy Spirit. 😢

[@HenryGibbs-u2r]

To fight Satan's evil spirits and demons. All this evil are fallen angels. GOD'S ARMOR AND THE HOLY SPIRIT is a must. You I are just a body. THE HOLY SPIRIT is the STRENGTH to defeat evil. THE HOLY SPIRIT gets all the credit and glory. Satan knows I fight his evil. Only JESUS CHRIST can defeat Satan. The unforgivable sin is disrespecting THE HOLY SPIRIT. Might be the 2nd Death and The Lake of Fire Forevermore. All is up to GOD ALMIGHTY and our my LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST.

[@b.eunice]

Bruh, that Mike Todd video was so disturbing, he literally said those stuff. Wow just sad.

[@MartinAsh785]

Why do people allow themselves to be decieved? I too was in charismatic movement but none of that happened to me and I was skeptic about it then left. Is this hypnosis going on?

[@caminandoensuverdad]

WHAT IS BLASPHEMY? The act of insulting or showing contempt or lack of reverence for God. (Merriam-Webster) Therefore I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven people, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven. And whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come. (Matthew 12:31-32 ESV)

[@davidjenkins2429]

❤

[@ALROD]

These clips are so much about some sort of mysticism instead of discerniment that comes from the Holy Spirit.

[@charlynesimms9451]

And yet,,, they keep a large audience. I feel sad for the people. They humanize The Almighty

[@robinpatrick9787]

I heard a self proclaimed pastor calling the Holy Spirit "It", ugh.

[@DoctrinePolice]

Bethel fire tunnel just like the In Hinduism, Kundalini (Sanskrit: कुण्डलिनी, romanized: kuṇḍalinī, lit. 'coiled snake'.

Can you please tell me if the Holy Spirit can be called a mother? Based in we are born from the Spirit ... and other verses.

[@someguy9519]

There is no record in the bible of Jesus or His Apostles or His disciples carrying on like that EVER!!! Thousands are following these cheesy hucksters right into hell. There's always a kernel of truth, as Jacob Prasch says, there's real cheese in every rat trap.

[@athicks19]

Will the book be at the G3 conference this year?

[@stevehardwick7285]

It's hard to watch people mocking the Holy Spirit and attributing that nonsense to God.

[@ActiveGrandma]

I can't fully understand if slandering other preachers is from God. Believers should read their bible so as not to be led astray by fault finding preachers. If all those so called 'prosperity gospels' are false prophets, why is it their ministries exists and keep going. Only God knows the condition of their hearts. God said do not judge. May God deal with you in that aspect. Only God can Judge.

[@patriciacesar6500]

These churches are hard to watch. Makes me very uncomfortable Demonic My sister is Pentecostal and believes this stuff. Wow

[@illusionary5951]

A parent cannot teach that which they do not posses themselves, & that is in regards to children killing themselves. The Holy Ghost is a person He is not an "It" nor is He a "thing" And what people are calling Him today is not Him but their carnality. And when you attempt to correct them they get mad. But what they dont understand is if one is walking in the "flesh" they are walking on Satans turf where he can take them at his will. This isnt fun & games & parents who play at serving God are going to answer for said games. This thing of saying I'm ok your ok were all ok is a lie out of the pits of Hell. They have accepted another Jesus other than the one Paul taught & they are walking in a spirit other than the Holy Ghost.

[@charlynesimms9451]

Well that sounds like double talk. How do you be intimate?

[@Raindrops77]

Find somebody? She says???? Yes find a poor Sacrifice......... the People putting themselves under Influence from demonic Spirits.
