Re: This Place Is The Only Source Of...
I heard an old timer say this once:
When people leave This, they always have in the back of their mind, a remembrance of what it felt like. You cannot forget what the Presence of God feels like. And no matter how far they wander, its always there, that memory, they remember what it feels like...
JD, I pray that you work through whatever it is you are going through. I pray you find peace.

I left old time Pentecost but I certainly have never left the presence of God! Forsaking the pentecostal culture of hopping, jumping, doing the whirly bird, jumping pews, screaming the name of Jesus loudly over and over as fast as you can, etc, etc is not the presence of God.

You know, hopping, jumping, doing the whirly bird, shouting the name of the Lord are all entirely Biblical.
But you've progressed beyond that, of course.

Re: This Place Is The Only Source Of...
I agree with him on this, but I am very curious as to if and how he responds.

Please show me where. I don't find it in my bible. The account of the day of Pentecost has been twisted to cover any and all behavior in "worship". Show me where there are New Testament accounts of what we typically see in old time Pentecostal churches today.
Also reconcile the practice of speaking in tongues in church a lot with no interpretation with the guidelines given in I Corinthains 14. In particular verses 18 and 19.

Re: This Place Is The Only Source Of...
I am "old time pentecost" and I have seen most of those, at some point.
And I believe that most of those can be done in the Spirit.
However, I was also trained that all things should be done, "decently and in order".
Sometimes, those things can become out of order.
