not sure if this is directed to me....or someone else....i'm not sure what comparison i made.
the word charismatic can also mean...compelling, appealing, captivating....things i think most would want their church to be.
my point being...I think we would all be better to stop labeling people....charismatic...liberal...consrvative...EC ...etc... the exception i see in the NT is for those who cause divisions among brothers.
labeling allows us to paint with broad brushes or classify movements...instead of looking at each person as just that....a person....or look at each Christ-follower as just a Christ-follower....not a pentecostal, baptist, UPCI, AMF, ALJC, etc......but just a person who is trying to follow in Christ footsteps. I believe if we did this....then we would better fulfill what Jesus prayed for....to be ONE....and that the Father's kingdom would come and will be done here on earth as in heaven.
