REally? I have to explain what that meant? Im sorry, I forgot the intelligence level I was writing too.... it was harmless, dont you worry.
I dont stoop to your level...i dont threaten people or hurt people on purpose. which is why im out of this. I am better than this and actually have more important things to do - have fun w/someone else!!

You keep saying your done with this blog, but you keep on writing. If you really do stop maybe "clarifying" person will too. Sounds like you may be a bit bitter yourself to keep going at this......MANY people have been hurt and families ruined because of this so called ministry--unfortunately, not everyone involved with this ministry found a relationship with the Lord -- just with Ben -- those are the ones to be concerned about here because their souls are doomed along with all those still going to that place unless they have a true relationship and fellowhip - not with one another but with God Almighty -- and know HIM as their Lord and Savior.

All I know is that it is very easy to make anonymous comments with no responsibility for what you say. As far as I can see Im the only one willing to take ownership of their comments. If you feel the need to to keep posting accusatory comments then at least have the courage to identify yourself. The good Lord knows that if everyone believed all of the random anonymous postings made on the internet we would all be in trouble.

[what do you know]

Keep it up why don't you.........

We are from Africa and dont want to know much about Bro Shields' death(how, why..) though we mourn him and believe he was the prophet of God and has gone home to glory.We have over 70 churches here under christian outreach min and over 10,000 believers of the truth as preached by the prophet.In fact we have more prophets raised by the prophet himself so no matter however much you people try to discredit his min you wont get nowhere fighting with God!direct your energies to salvation instead!

We are not fighting with God (we know that would be a losing battle). We are not fighting with anyone. We just want the truth! Whatever he did in Africa, I don't know anything about, but
I do know the lies and deception that were part of his ministry here. God doesn't change His Word for anyone. I don't care who you are. He is the God of truth and that is what we are after. His mistress Carol and his supposedly best friend Jess have done nothing but steal lie! And you tell me this is God? I am Ben's daughter and we as his children know he left our mom and had a baby before he and my mother were divorced. He married that woman and was still married to her at the time of his death, yet he chose to follow the lust of his flesh.
Is this God?
I'm thankful that God IS A GOD OF TRUTH! and the truth will be made known! We all know God as our best friend, REDEEMER, COMFORTER, ADVOCATE, HEALER, OUR ALL IN ALL. HE IS OUR FATHER!

If you directed your energies to salvation, you wouldn't be writing on this blog and telling other people what to care and do---practice what you preach!!!Unlike your prophet did. You weren't his "family" -- "flesh and blood" so why would you care? Does your family care about you? Does it matter to you about them? Or do you shun your family if they don't believe as you like your prophet did. Ever wonder why your prophet couldn't do here what he did there? Because YOU DON'T KNOW except for what he showed, and people here know what he showed himself to be here too. An adulterer and a liar, and a thief!

mind your own business and keep your crazy thoughts and ideas in Africa. If you were his friend like you claim to be, you would want to know if he died at the hands of others. what is wrong with you?

a special service at the Pentecostal Church in Olean,NY at 1100 Homer st. just off exit 25 of route 17/I-86 is planned on Sat august 29 at 2 PM. Some people who knew Hubert Ireland and Ben Shields when they worked together years ago will be there and refreshments afterwards

[Wondering]

Just wondering, where is Carol O living now, since she left the house in Olean along with all of Ben's belongings. Anyone know? What is going on at the church, are people actually still going to that place?

[truthseeker]

Go to the Church on Saturday august 22 in Cherry Creek for the 2 pm service and you will see what is going on and who is there.

I remember when Evangelist Ben Shields came to State College, Pa in the 70s and had powerful meetings that those who attended never forgot. Sorry to hear about his passing away but we all have a birth date and will have a death date.

Was wondering if anything was explained at the service on Saturday... just curious

A couple of us went to Christian Outreach tonight. Shame on you Mr. Sprague for pointing at me and calling me the devil. You call yourself a Christian behaving like that in front of your children. You know better than that. Do you also teach your children that it is ok to lie, steal and cheat like Jess and Carol? It is too bad that you have compromised your Faith to feel the importance of singing on a stage to a crowd of 6 people. You are not winning and I was not the one that was mad, you called me the devil and pointed your finger at me , shame on you for your unchristian behavior and shame on you for teaching your children that this is of the Lord. We have the Lord on our side, he knows all and sees all and we trust in him and believe in him and the truth will be known to all. Mr. Sprague, If you ever slander me again in that way, I will most definitely take legal action against you. Shame on you for calling me the devil and pointing your finger at me during a so called church service. Shame on you !!!!!

[jewels]

You were right when you sang the devil is mad. He was so nervous we thought he would wet himself.
So yes.... The devil sure was mad. He was so mad he could hardly speak. Yep... The devil himself was tongue tied and shaking like a leaf.
Hallelujah

[just me]

Sounds like the real devil made himself known. The devil can't stand to be in the presence of a true believer and this proves it. He didn't want you there so he called you a devil. Your presence must have made him really nervous and he didn't know what else to do but call you the devil. He probably thought you would leave. YES, SHAME ON HIM!
