I visited a church Sunday night that I absolutely loved the way this pastor did altar. It was a great service with a lot of worshiping and at the end the pastor asked if there was anyone in the service that had not received the Holy Ghost since they believed. Two people came up and the pastor simply talked about how simple it was to receive God's gift. It was seconds before the two were speaking in tongues. So simple - so easy - no scare tactics or begging.
How does he give an altar appeal for individuals who just want to make commitment to Jesus? (They heard the Word and believed)
