deliverance and christianity

there is this trend in churches nowadays whereby pastors organize crusades for deliverance. is this really Christianity cos most of these deliverance episodes are scary. Pastors whipping demons out of people, people shrieking and contorting on the floor like possessed people, stories on spiritual husbands/ wives, marine spirit, visions and prophesy by pastors. is this all really Christianity.

A christian is some 1 who has the life nd nature of God impacted 2 his human spirit. A christian has been delivered already at the new birth when he accepted jesus as his lord nd personal savour. Therefore a christian does not require any deliverance again after he has given his or her life 2 christ. Can christ be delivered? Obviously NO. So as a christian y then do u need.
