So, as I said to Timmy. You would not understand.
What he's saying is . . . you're dumb. Timmy's dumb. We're all dumb except for him and the few that agree with him. If you read through a couple threads you'll notice that people who disagree with BS are, in a way, said to be novices, dumb, ignorant, etc. Only the people who have agreed with BS are smart and get it. :sshhh

They have the same type meeting at Indy and I don't go there the distance you know. In general in what I have seen around Pentecost I tend to agree with your analysis.
Don't listen to other people's ill considered estimation of what I said. Note: I did not say that anyone was under demonic influence. The human spirit is given wide lattitude within its own fallen nature often motivated by many human considerations of human nature which very often calls into question personal agenda, motivations, political thoughts, reputation, and pride among others. For instance; Pride is not a demonic spirit though the Pride was found in Devil which effected his expulsion from realms of light. Pride can also be found in us which is NOT demonic but rather, entirely human. It is of the flesh and what follows are the works of the flesh.

Where I made my huge blunder here is, I jumped off into an area of spiritual nature that is little understood by the rank and file. My bad! But once in here, I should not have responded to the many unlearned questions and comments that was directed at me. I should have just let them continue to think of me the fool that they probably consider me, without the attempted explanation. Hence, my "fishing trip." It will do no good to try to explain it any more than I have already. I have tried, but it only raises more questions. Therefore, my despair for Oneness Pentecostalism that we know as Apostolic has not been pacified in the least by these discussion here, rather the opposite.

Honestly this is what annoys me more than anything else... when preachers think that the peasants cannot understand what they are trying to say because they have some super secret knowledge of the "spirit" world...

I don't see how it is unlearned to ask someone to clarify something that was not clearly stated in the first place... when you give something a personality, such as a spirit, it is only natural to ask for clarification as to what you meant... I guess I'll go back to drooling on my desk now since we can't possibly understand though...

Nope. Your blunder was giving away where you were when this happened. Had you worded things in such a way that no one would have known where you were when it happened things would have turned out much differently. Giving away where you were when this happened led to the disclosure of who this prophet is, which led to him being defended, which led to questions you don't want to answer because the people asking are novices, which led to the other threads that have been started because of this whole mess.

Don't be annoyed. There is nothing really secret or even any super secret knowledge of the spirit world that a little instructions and experience would not help.

This is not said arrogantly though it may sound that way. This is said humbly.
