David Hogan
David Hogan has many tall tales of the miraculous with absolutely no evidence to back them up. Here is a short list of some of his wild claims:
1) He raises people from the dead.
2) He is thrown supernaturally across rooms into walls.
3) He multiplies food.
4) He drives his vehicle underwater.
5) Angels are assigned to him and have to go where he goes.
6) He is miraculously transported from place to place.
7) He is invigorated when new demons are unleashed on him.
8) A demon has tried to tear out the innards of his child.
9) His little son has a hanky that makes people fly by shaking it at them.
10) He has seen limbs grow on limbless people.
11) He has seen the creation of new brains in a brainless baby.
12) Jesus talks to his dog and horse.
12) He has seen people fly around the room under the annointing of God.
David Hogan:
"We've had over 200 people raised from the dead in our work...I've personally been in on 19 dead raisings and I know."
"I may be the most simple man you've ever met but you ain't never run into anybody in our generation that has touched as many dead men and let 'em get up as I have. How does that feel?"
"I said to Jesus, 'You make me like that baby or I aint gonna preach.'"
"And so I decided that I was going to seek heaven until the day came that I could walk up to a dead person and touch him and watch him fly up from the dead."
He claims that when his son shouts 'fuego' (fire) and waves his little hanky at people, 'You are flying through the air like you were shot with a gun--an 8 year old boy--It's amazing.'"
Hogan tells his listeners that it was God's will for all believers to raise the dead since it was commanded. Hogan claims that thousands of people have been healed in his ministry and that, "Every part of the human body healed or recreated."
As Hogan goes on, he tells of a woman who shattered her wrist and arm and had bones sticking out of every which way. He says his touch and prayer brought the bones all back together, closed the skin up and effected a perfect healing. However, if this were true, we could send Hogan and his entourage to the trauma centers and emergency rooms of hospitals and send the doctors home.
"Take your wildest imagination....'Cause my Bible says that whatever things I can think about, Jesus is going to do greater." That truly is an amazing statement and an amazing lie. No one's Bible says that anywhere.
"And I have a pretty serious imagination."
"All the food that we fed them when we went back to the pots was still in the pot....Woooo....Today, this day, it is fulfilled in your ears."
He says that 25 henchman were sent to kill him and his workers. Somehow Hogan and the group must have turned invisible: "We walked right by 'em. They never saw us. And I am not a quiet individual....Yahoooooo." He then relapses into a surely mode and accuses the students there of "decadency" and "apathy" and verbally beats them up for a time.
"Let's see what you can handle---are you ready? Let's see if you can handle the real me. Most demons in humans can't."
Talking about demons, "But I can promise you this, I'm a great friend but I make a lot better enemy. Just remember that your whole life."
"Cause my bible says that the Holy Ghost shed His blood--in Acts it says that." It does not say that in Acts and this is total confusing and torturing of Scripture.
He tells his audience that he has "two submarine trucks" that go underwater even though "mechanically it is not possible." He proclaimed
"great wash job Holy Ghost."
Jesus the appears at the October meeting and starts to read from a list: "I was looking around, and as he was reading from the list of people went flying through the ait, getting healed and delivered. It was phenomenal, what God was doing. And he's done it in every service in our work that I've been in since then. It's amazing. Wonderful."
