The last paragraph is even more sickening.. This is Lindell here:
> "I'm gonna say one other thing, and I don't say this lightly. But I just think you need to know what's going to happen. There are going to be β some of you are going to raise people from the dead. I'm not saying everybody will be raised from the dead. I'm just saying there are some people in this room β you're gonna raise people from the dead. It's going to happen."

They saw a kidney on an x-ray, huh? More than one miracle was performed that day!

I'm trying to deep dive internally into how JRA converted to this, and the only thing I could imagine is medical miracles create larger income than simply the Love of God, which is what I experienced when I was in that cult.
I'm not saying they were ever a great church to attend (in hindsight at least, they are very persuasive when you're there) but I never experienced anything like this when I was a member a couple decades ago. It would be more like recovering addicts, or them helping rebuild burnt down houses, which I can at least acknowledge still that whatever works is helpful.
Regrowing toes....No idea what's happened between then and now.
Happy member and donate monthly to Brentwood now who I know loves everyone for who they are. Just saying I can see how easy it is to get wrapped up in JRA's bullshit. If you ever go, at least as I experienced in the early 2000s and I imagine has only become more persuasive, every sermon was like a hype concert. They are performers that make you feel good about yourself, so it was easy to just kind of believe whatever they say.

One of the guys involved claimed that he had a friend regrow a kidney.
