 Question  (short): 
"Oliver Twist" Christians?
 Question  (full): 
How much "more" do we need than God's word -- the Scriptures? I hear people on many of these cable TV religious programs asking for "the anointing" or some special, tailor-made revelation from God. I hear them say, "God told me this or God told me that." They seem always to want more -- more than what God has revealed in His word. Have we become a generation of "Oliver Twist" Christians, saying to God, "Please, sir, I want some more" (See Dickens' Oliver Twist, Chapter 2). Is God's word as revealed in Holy Scripture incomplete? Does each of us require special revelation, special treatment -- indeed, individual tutoring -- from Almighty God? Critique this modern TV "gospel" that is being pumped into the homes of America. What's wrong with wanting "more" -- more revelation, more assurance, more of everything spiritual than the word of God comprehends? --Hank
