    Pentecostalism: The Glorification of the Flesh

    I don't normally defend doctrine to any great extent... But I am Pentecostal Holiness! If I hear anyone speak in tongues in a service I am always sure to stop by and thank them for being obedient to the Holy Spirit!

    Pentecostalism: The Glorification of the Flesh

    Can Yankees experience revival? I would think so! But they would have to come out of their uppity Yankee ways! Doctrine alone won't do it!

    Pentecostalism: The Glorification of the Flesh

    The Old Oxford Holy Club.... Jeering college students scoffed at these "Methodists" who tried to systematically serve God every hour of the day. The club members set aside time for praying, examining their spiritual lives, studying the Bible, and meeting together. In addition, they took food to...

    Pentecostalism: The Glorification of the Flesh

    My opinion is that the old Oxford Holy Club was the best thing Christian history had to offer and that whatever we do to return to those ways are the best paths to Christian revival. The foundations laid in the old Oxford Holy Club became Wesleyan Type Pentecostalism in which I am a member...

    One big reason why I will never abandon premillennialism

    Again... Not knowing the times and the seasons... 6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel? 7 And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his...

    One big reason why I will never abandon premillennialism

    The old timers in my Pentecostal Holiness church taught the rapture of the church as something imminent, as can occur any day, and discipled me a teenager to do the same. At the end of that summer we had a good revival in which the Lord seemed there in a mighty way. On reading the book, Run Baby...

    One big reason why I will never abandon premillennialism

    @FaithWillDo ... Spirituality.... So much of it lies in... 1. Getting a good image of the Lord Jesus Christ 2. Anticipating him coming quickly. 2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for...

Natural E/c2 - All mass is basically cooled plasma --- And bang! Back to plasma! Mental E/c2 - Mentally, A mathematical formula, and a mind to study these...

    What is speaking in tongues?

    My dear sir... Is not the scripted liturgical service a great way of losing a generation? I spent my teenage years in the Michigan tundra. There would be times when the pastor of our GARBC (liturgical Baptist) would take us to youth conference and I would see a worried look on his face on the...

    Winter Revival Update yesss

    Did the OP say that Jehovah's Witness, Christian Science, and Mormans... Were bible believing Christians? Did the OP say that's just people signing up to join religious organizations? It seems to me your criticism here is unfounded.

    What is speaking in tongues?

    For me to allow the Spirit of the Lord to function uniquely within the members of a church service breaks up the "Plain Jane" and ordinary.
