This is just what I "think" happened in Brownsville, not what happened. I say this because I went through a similar experience only on a smaller scale.

I attended a church for years and I remember revival breaking out one time for an extended period of time. There were signs and wonders going on and there definitely was a powerful move of thr Holy Spirit. I think it went to the church leadership's head. This is what i think happened in Brownsville. Church politics, greedy leadership, power trips, spiritual abuse and probably a lot of dictatorship too. This in turn probably stopped the revival and people saw through what the leadership was doing, leadership became devisive and Brownsville is now in trouble.

It is sad that it had to happen, but it did and it is sad. Let's just love people, show them the love of Christ in us, train them up and equip them and then they will go out and do the same. This is what it's all about and is what I desire in a church family.
