The bold is Baptist, and at that point you have received His Spirit. Of course, no evidence or biblical prove for that.

I said the prayer back when I was 11. Something hit me during service, made tears come to my eyes. To this day I know God moved on me in that little baptist church. Went to the front, the preacher stuck a mic to my mouth and said "repeat after me" and poof, I was saved!!!!

Never felt it again, until 3 years later I went to a pentecost church with a friend. Haven't looked back.

Re: The problem with the UPCI

See, thats the issue I have PO as you stated below I bolded everyone wants to run to the evidence, what about the snake handling evidence in the bible and picking one up..I dont see that being done in the majority of the Churches unless your in the Mountians..

After the Lord drew me (repentance) I had this great hunger for the word of God and prayer. That looks like evidence to me.

The Greek for a serpent includes, figuratively, an artful or cunning person and can include Satan. If that is taken out of context by some, it can be shown that the interpretation is simply wrong headed.

Right... Or UPC for that matter. Historical documents show us that a sizable percentage of the UPC - even ministers, did not exactly expect heaven to be a reunion of Oneness Pentecostal tongue speakers. I agree with the first General Superintendent of the United Pentecostal Church in this matter.

Same here. I have been at a couple of Baptist altars, tears, but still feeling empty until I came into Pentecost.

My BIL, a Baptist, told me you knew you had the Spirit when you felt joy. Okay, I felt joy taking a tequila shot when I was a bartender. I KNEW I was not saved.

I agree with the Bible. I am following Peter and Paul (Acts 10:46; Acts 19:6) Hang men and their personal views... Just sayin'....
