I see alot of people in here belittling pentecostals. I am no christian and do not share their beliefs, but I have alot of friends who are pentecostal, and they are very nice people. They are some of the nicest and dependable people Ive ever met. Tone it down will ya Joseph Gustaufssen |

I agree with you Joseph. There are a few 'little minds' on this site that like to make fun of them. Pity them, they get themselves off vicariously doing that. |

Hey Arron, From my understanding of the e-mail I received, only certain services are going to cost money. Actually, those services will still be 'free', but if you will pay for them you will be bumped to the top of the list of priorities, so to speak. FACTnet is a large site, and to quote them they have 600 posts a day at times...I can't say I blame them for trying to defray some of their maintenance costs. I am curious how many of the 6000 registered users actually ever donate to FACTnet... |

Dear friends, Good if some of you are Pentaecostals, but I need to tell you Jesus never had in mind to bring up a denomination called the Pentecostal Denomination. I consider what happened in Asuza street as a move of God. But God never meant anyone to stay there, but to press forward to greater realities in the Spirit. I don't approve much of the Charismatic movement as there is lot of ill waves and false doctrines in them. I consider the Charismatic movement as a dirt wave between two great waves. Don't mistake me, I am talking about some ill-practices and unholy activites that are attributed to the Holy Spirit. I don't wish to mention them. Those who want to stay in their Baptist and Brethren faith can stay there and not be blessed by the Spirit baptism, those who are in Pentecostal faith can stay there and not blessed by the liberty and greatness of the Spirit. My sincere advice: Don't stop, keep diving deep into the Spirit! Sidharth |

Dear dear belongtojesus, If I spoke on the behalf of Baptist or Brethren faith or any other group of "faith in Christ alone"- then I would be so honored but I'm sure I couldnt say enough for the wonderful things these congregations do in the Spirit. It is ludicrouse to suppose that the groups haven't seen that the bible speaks of the Spirit and what that intels. I'm convinced that the manifistations, as most Pentecostal or Charismatics believe, isn't subject to the Holy Spirit. Meaning that the manifistaion of it, as they've have been wrongly taught, doen't make the Holy Spirit more real. Just as we have a savior that I can see deed in a persons life- a transformed life- and I can see in word, so it is that the Holy Spirit has indeed reconciled me to the Father. Knowing where I came from and able to describe a life of continuouse dispair allows me to speak of this tranformation- a life changed is the testimony Paul refered to when he wrote to the church. They were the testimony. Had they all spoken in tounges! No. So to connect this philosophy with the Holy Spirit is a lack of study. Oh I don't say that you aren't saved. But I tell you what, most pentecostal and charismatics can't discuss details outside of Christ at the Cross and the ressurection without tieing it to salvation. When I speak of tounges, which is clearly what you're refering too, then I clearly have to say that you are wrong. It might do you some good to understand what faith alone really means. For starters: It was faith before Christ and it's faith after Christ...what really took place then? Jay the peacemaker |

And yes Pentecostal people are good people. I've never met one this isn't good because tey all have the opertunity to be good. Just as I do. I try to be and I do my homework. I study to show the hope that is within me. Realize that we Americans, find oursleves in an overriden academic culture where intelligence is seen as a novelty. In liue of that there are great skeptic and to reach them we must have a firm understanding. To be a missionary though in other parts of the world- this is not so necessary. But finding myself here- it has been helpful both for me and otheres. It took some appologetic studies to penetrate my thick skull because I was as skeptic as it got. So please understand that it isn't my logic (greek wisdome) that I have made substituted for the real God. Yet I use it and know that the Holy Spirit is not bound and elite to those who wish for the manifistation through giberish. There are other translations available for you to understand and I'm sorry there haven't been confident and convinced Christians in the past to show you the diference. Most are undecided. This makes checking it out to see if it's true an option. We both can understand that teaching something wrong would have serious implications-noone would purposely suggest it right? Wrong. There are lots of cults and people in them that haven't found out yet. When they leave and try to live a normal life and undo what had been done- they walk around like they put thier finger in the light socket. At least know you looked for it. You'll find it. Onother thing. Know that people make thier experience thier new God. You hear it as a mantra! The mystery has been revealed! Jay the peacemaker |
