At this point, I think it is a great stretch of faith to think that you, I and Randy are part of the same movement. You deny that baptism has any efficacy, that one can receive the Holy Ghost without the evidence present, and then say we are part of the same movement?
Add to that your total disdain for our beliefs, and you have a potent cocktail of cynicism and mockery. The Holy Ghost is a promise. A gift. But that gift is only available to a truly repentant heart.
