Toronto Blessing

...Toronto has its flaws, some of them quite serious. The pressure to find biblical warrant for bizarre physical manifestations was more than its apologists could resist. Many simply "overinterpreted" the significance of what was happening. Others felt compelled to artificially prop up and perpetuate the renewal when it was obviously (and by God's design) on the wane. And critics are right in pointing out that the Scriptures did not play as central a role as they should have.
