Supporters argue that those who haven’t attended the Lakeland “revival” should not to judge because they haven’t experienced it.
That's like saying that those who haven't been to Afghanistan or Iraq shouldn't express their opinion on the war. That's ridiculous!
Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world.
1 John 4:1
"...the disciples came to Him privately, saying, 'Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?' And Jesus answered and said to them: 'Take heed that no one deceives you. ...Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many.'"
Matthew 24:3, 4, 11
