Comment:	I am not bothered by Bentley's personal appearance it is what he says that bothers me. Regarding some of his claims.Bentley says that the angels took him up to heaven and performed some kind of operation placing numerous white boxes inside him. On another occasion when preaching,he claimed he was so tired because the previous night he had been traveling(in his spirit)around the world healing people!!Now I don't know about you but these experiences sound like classic alien abduction or New Age out of body experiences. He also claimed that,on a visit to heaven,St Paul told him that Abraham helped him write the letter to the Hebrews!!(See Wikipedia entry on Bentley).In spite of all this thousands are taking him seriously and flocking to listen to him without asking any questions when it is quite obvious his claims are weird. Chris Cole says:"His tattoos offend the religious mind set which is probably one of the many reasons why God is using this fearless disciple of God."Now I do not have a problem with tattoos(I have one myself)but why does God feel the need to be so divisive? Is that really how the God of peace really works?I suspect God has better things to do than to bring division to the Body of Christ through a tattooed man who makes strange and unbiblical claims for the supernatural.
