![]() I just get so annoyed when the number of “deliverances” performed tally higher than the number of people who eat at McDonalds. I’m not trying to mock those who do work for God. ![]() The Catholic Church is not about to give out numbers and what we hear from “Deliverance Ministers” is so over the top as to lose all credibility. Is there a rise in possession? There is no way to calculate that either.
