An encounter with an angel... Or not.

1) How can a Christian know when something was genuinely from God? Please be creative with your answer instead of calling her a fake Christian. You don't know her therefore you can't make that call.

I understand.... that they (xtians) cannot understand anything that does not fit their delusion. Ergo that ANYTHING can be "from god" if they wish it to be so..much like any child under the age of 5 years.

Agreed. Have had a similar experience. Mostly it is just some random person wishing to exercise their superiority in-front of those less evolved. A scam if you like, for personal gain.
