Fourth reason people fall for false predictions.

hermeneutics eschatology confirmation bias
Mike Winger idea 2018-04-18

Mike adds an eighth reason as a corrective that reframes the whole topic.

Winger resists the reactionary move of becoming cessationist in response to charismatic excess.

Gluttony is an underaddressed sin in the American church; fasting is a practical corrective; no need for strict calorie counting.
