Waiting for your analysis.

Did you read what I wrote?

You have my analysis already. But here it is again, If they didn't speak with other tongues as the Spirit gives the utterance like the disciples did on the day of Pentecost, then they aren't Spirit filled.

Do they have to speak in tongues at every service to be considered Spirit filled?
NO!

Some people have told about going to churches in Las Vegas where people put casino chips in the offering. Since the chips come from several casinos it is difficult for one of the church employees from each church to return them to the individual casinos to redeem them for cash, so a local monastery serves as a central clearing house by receiving the chips and then sending the appropriate value to the various churches. The person who does this at the monastery is called the "chip monk." According to Snopes at http://www.snopes.com/humor/jokes/chipmonk.asp this is not a fact.

You have quite a lofty view of yourself, don't you? How special you are to be Spirit-filled. But those poor suckers who don't have "The Truth". It must suck to be them, huh?

Any suggestions?

If you need a place to stay I might recommend the Golden Nugget hotel downtown on Freemont St.

We just spent two nights there last week.

There is a church called Praise Tabernacle pastored by Randy Blizzard. It is on Peace Way in the tne NW part of the city. It is a moderate church and from what you describe you should feel very comfortable there. They have one service on Sunday at 2pm.

I guess 1 John 4:15 means nothing... and John 3:5 MUST be interpreted through Acts 2? Hmmmmm
