what do you all think of rev. peter popoff the guy from tv with the miracle spring water?

Question

i recieve his letters in the mail

i didnt pay for it i never gave him money, i just recive his letters and he prays for me although he does try to ask for money

Answer 1

For a small donation Ill send you my book on why he is wrong and my free miracle sand is the way to go.

Answer 2

Does he believe in Jesus Christ, does he believe in Jesus dieing on a cross for your sins and then rising from the dead the third day to wash away our sins forever for all that call upon his name?? If he does then his ministry will be blessed, if he doesn't his ministry will fall, however I don't think there is a miracle in his spring water, the miracle is in Jesus Christ, another question I have about him is that is he selling the water and claiming it will work a miracle, We know Jesus didn't sell his miracles did he, as you read thru the Gospels you find that he healed everyone who asked him to and I can only imagine how many he healed that isnot recorded in the Bible. Pray for guidence with this Rev as I really don't get a good feeling about him but I am not the judge. Jesus Christ is, Just ask yourself if Jesus was here, what we he do??

Answer 3

He has been exposed as a total fraud many times in the past.
In the 1980's he attributed to himself a "gift" of being able to pick out people from the audiences who attended his evangelistic meetings, identify what was ailing them or what their particular need was, and then perform the "healing." It was uncanny and people considered it all supernatural.
Certain persons came forward later and claimed that Mr. Popoff was "wired for sound" with a small earpiece. His aides, working behind the scenes, conducted random interviews and engaged a lot of the rally participants in idle converation prior to the start of the events. They would take this information and then feed it to him during the event so that it would appear spontaneous.
I truly believe that a special place in hell is reserved for people like this.

Answer 4

Fraud. Selling holy water??? If its a gift from God, dont you think everyone should get that gift for free, instead of lining Popoff's pockets??

For the record, James Randi exposed him as a fraud in the 80's. He disappeared, and now that everyone has forgotten he was a fraud, he is back on the scene.

JC - that man is ripping off your fellow Christians. You find that hilarious? Not even I find that funny. I find it to be sad and conniving on his part.

Answer 5

To be polite..he seems a little over the top. however, I've never sat and watched his whole program, so I can't speak to what he may be preaching. The miracle spring water thing though is too much, in my opinion.

Answer 6

I think he is HIGHLY suspect. Why is it most of his followers are minorites?

Given the fact that he is on tv so often, he obviously has lots of wealth.
He must be getting rich off of their donations for the water.

Didn't one of the tv stations expose him recently?

Supposedly he wears a mike so his wife can feed him information;
" Isn't there is a woman named Grace who is suffering from pain in her leg?"

The wife interviewed Grace before the session

Answer 7

He's a joke....just like every other Christian evangelist looking for a quick buck. True spirituality (or closeness with the creator) can only come from within....you can't pay for it or bottle it up.

Answer 8

I think he is great. The guy who can sell miracle water is a pro.

Answer 9

Miracle spring water?
Is this for real?
I can believe it...I've seen all manner of crap, yes CRAP, sold to people. These people make my blood get hot.
It shouldn't surprise me, but it does, that people actually fall for buying this junk.

Answer 10

Hey, it's a good scam to make lots of $$$$$$$$$
