Ever been overcome by the Holy Spirit? You better make sure there’s someone there to “catch” you.
In this man’s case, no one caught his Spiritual fall….so here come the lawyers.
“Matthew Lincoln was attending an evening service at his nondenominational Tennessee church when he approached the altar where a visiting minister was offering individual prayers for parishioners. Assigned “catchers” were present on the altar in case congregants fainted, fell, or otherwise lost control. When the minister, Robert Lavala, slightly touched his forehead, the Knoxville-area man “received the spirit and fell backwards.” Except nobody was there to catch him, Lincoln charges in a $2.5 million lawsuit filed yesterday against Lakewind Church and its pastors. Lincoln, 58, claims that he fell backwards, striking his head against the “carpet-covered cement floor,” according to the Circuit Court complaint…”
This man claims that “as a result of the fall” he is suffering from “severe and permanent” injuries. (Not my intention to make light of this man’s injuries)…but we all suffer sin and death as results of ‘the fall.’
