Mommy, mommy ... you mean I can be quickened and resurrected to New Life while dead in sin and not being properly buried, just like Cornelius? Aren't we supposed to help Jesus save us when we re-enact the Gospel?
And Mommy, are magnifying God and prophesying also initial evidence of the Holy Ghost like in the 3 of 21 conversions in Acts. And will my SAVING language be intelligible like the Apostles in
Acts 2? And when did historical narrative become didactic doctrine ? Why don't the apostles ever teach that tongues are initial evidence .. anywhere but rather refer to as one of many gifts of the Spirit? Mommy, do you the TRUTH?
