2 Rob Grayson September 30, 2013 at 9:29 am: The anointing of the Spirit, resting on a grave? Really? I wish this was a joke, but this kind of superstitious magical thinking is becoming all too prevalent.
3 Mark Lamprecht September 30, 2013 at 10:34 am: Rob Grayson I wish it were a joke too, but seems not.
4 Mark Lamprecht September 30, 2013 at 10:35 am: @rhology I don’t know who Bill Johnson is.
5 Rob Grayson September 30, 2013 at 10:37 am: Mark Lamprecht @rhology What?! Can you be a Christian and not know who Bill Johnson is? [Irony mode off]
