I remember when I was about 17 sitting in revival one night on the same pew with my cousin who was married and about 24. She was raised in the church like me but when she turned 18 she done her own thing, only coming to church once a month at times, got really bad into alcohol.
Anyway, it was after service alter call and we were sitting about 2 pews up from the back, people were praying at the alter, God was moving, etc etc. All of a sudden the visiting preacher walked back to where we were sitting and looked her square in the eyes and told her: "If you don't get right with God your child will be born with difficulties" .. then he just turned and walk back to the alter.
Well first off, she didnt even know she was pregnant. But, just like he said, 8 months later she gave birth to a baby girl who was mentally impaired, born with brain damage.

In fact I think that the insinuation of "hateful" Pentecostals is coming mostly from the fertile imaginations of bitter, backslidden ex Apostolics who are constantly trying to find a way to justify their actions. ~ strait shooter

Let's play a game! It's called "Is It Literal Or Is It Figurative?". Someone quotes a scripture, and the rest of us have to guess whether that scripture is supposed to be understood literally or figuratively. Sound like fun? OK, I'll start.
Mark 9:47 And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: ...
Literal or figurative?

Oh, this one's easy! Isn't it? Isn't it?
