I sincerely wish that the government can give the students the permission to kill such irritating evangelists.

Pentecostal Happy Clappers.
Nope I do not believe so. They are like city harvest and ncc. they do not have any denomination.
I believe denominational churches would not resort to such lousy tricks to bring people in.
Such an act is against God's will.
The problem with non-denominational churches is that their founding pastor has no higher authority except God. So anyone question the pastor's preaching he just say ask God.
Usually these pastors have their own set of beliefs which differ from mainstream churches. Hence they go out and start their own church based on their own interpretation of the bible, which may or may not be correct.
This is extremely dangerous.

Yeah, but unfortunately, accordining to the Bible, God gave authority to the government of the world in worldly matters, so anything that affects society, the pastors have no say. So far, according to some semi-official rumours flying around in Singapore, the Singapore government has exiled some smart-alec pastors and priests since Singapore became a Republic. I really wonder how much more stupid idiots want to test water in Singapore.

independent pentecostal =/= pentecostal.
independent = ownself = cornerstone community church
It is ok if they do it discreetly, and not by force.
Hope these people will not affect other christians.

Actually, pentecostal movement is akin to the charismatic movement. However, independent pentecostal is self-righteousness in action since they deem their sole interpretation of the bible being the sole authority and is akin to the movement lead by the 12 apostles and Paul.
the world will be more peaceful if there are no such thing as prosperity gospel

Wrong, the world will be more peaceful is there is no such thing as gospel.

secondary school students in uniform molest or rape street preachers, that'll be the first.
targeting young schoolgoing kids
they pedo or wad
They target young sch kids because at that age, these kids are the most impressionable. They think that going to such 'modern' churches is very 'cool' and 'hip'.
And as most of the kids who joined have not previously attend any church before, they have no idea what a proper church is like. They are attracted by the disco lights, loud music and pastor who can speak well. Not to mention they can get to find bf/gf there too.
Without any objective research done on the bible, these kids naturally do not question the pastor and his teachings. They are easily influenced and become willing members and givers very soon.
Its not surprising that 60% of the members at city harvest are still teenagers.
Seems like if you want to grow a church, the strategy is to target the young and 'harvest' them.
