Thoughts on the Lakeland movement

I believe that the current movement centred on Lakeland, Florida, is not a true revival from the Lord.

Although I have not been to Lakeland, I have attended a number of UK meetings heavily influenced by ‘Toronto’ and its related phenomena, including one led by Rodney Howard-Browne at which Gerald Coates and Colin Dye were present.

I reported this in the Christian press, as well as in an interview with Mick Brown, a freelance journalist who had written a piece on ‘Toronto’ for the Telegraph Supplement. So I have had contact with these phenomena and with people who have been ‘Toronto’-ed or ‘Bentley’-ed.
