Slain in the Spirit

Filtered – with Costi Hinn
Written By Costi Hinn

In our third installment of “Filtered — with Costi Hinn:” 

Being “slain in the spirit” has long been of the most prolific charismatic practices in the church. 

With people, shaking, convulsing, and manifesting at the mere touch of a supposedly anointed man or woman (or the wave of their jacket), many people are convinced they’re experiencing a special encounter with the Holy Spirit. But is that what the Holy Spirit does? Does He cause people to shake, bark, scream, convulse, and topple on a stage? Is any of this biblical? Does it match the ministry of Christ, His apostles, or the Holy Spirit? Costi Hinn unpacks.
