Let's hear what the Word has to say, please:

"What is this then that is written, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner? Whosoever shall fall upon that stone shall be broken; but in whosoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder."
JESUS ~
Luke 20: 17- 18

"The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit; MANY are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all." PSALMS 34:18 & 19

HEBREWS 12:6 "For whom the Lord loveth HE CHASTENETH, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth. vs.7) If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?" vs. 11) Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby."

Let us all remember the words of King David , "Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm." [repeated in 1 CRONICLES 16:22]

Pastor Charles Stanley is a fine man of God being used mightily for the LORD'S Kingdom , in Atlanta, GA., USA, and also across the globe - and into Iraq.

SS, I believe you have misjudged Pastor Charles Stanley, much to his harm. He is NOT a preacher of the "FAITH" doctrine, which says, only believe, have faith, and you will always be healed. NOT SO!

Please be more careful with your own judgmental opinions. If you don't like something, why not just pass it by and go to something/somewhere else? I say that to help you not get 'banned' again. You do have a good side, which sometimes surfaces. That's a fruit-bearer for the Kingdom of God.

I also find it very hard to believe that Billy Graham gave the figure, you gave, as those being saved at a 'Billy Graham Crusade'. Pastor Graham is very much aware that , "Man looks on the outward appearance but God looks on the heart." (1 SAMUEL 16:7b)
