I was under the impression Rex Humbard passed away
years ago. This news is a surprise.
The reason is, I understand that faith healer minister
Ernest Angley took over the property that used to
house Rex Humbard’s cathedral church…

Rex Humbard was the first to bring the Gospel to TV. Fulton Sheen later took Humbards style but teeked it a bit. Humbard in the early 1950’s saw a huge crowd in downtown Akron Ohio watching a TV showing a baseball game. He began to think that if people would watch tv then maybe they would be able to hear the gospel over tv since it was a novelty at the time. Rev Humbard was a kind and dedicated Christian. He had a great following and lead many to Christ. I miss him deeply, along with the Rev Dr. Jerry Fallwell and Dr. D.James Kennedy.
ernest angly bought Rev Humbards facilities and angley now runs his ministry through rev Humbards original church.
Angley preaches holiness and conversion of life, heart and living for the Lord. Fasting, praying and reading Sacred Scripture are prime.
Its true his ministry is very orthodox. His flock does not drink , smoke, dance, attend things of the world, worry about sports, gossiping about others, etc. Angley has a few things that can seem laughable to a person not familiar with holy living but the discipline of the Jews of Jesus time was strict. Good, holy living and not givint into sin is preached. Sin is a choice, not something a person cant avoid.
We catholics can learn something from this type preaching. unfortunatly, not many are capable of living a true Christian life and leave the things of the world behind.
