Never fallen out uhh... Neither have I. One time we had an evangelist visit who had a few falling out. And those that didn't fall out, he'd go at 'em again.
Well, he approached me. He prayed over me and I did not fall. Then he stepped back and springs forward and places that big hand on my forehead. Well, I decided to throw myself onto the floor, eyes closed, not in the spirit, mind you. He got what he wanted.

*I am serious guys * no joke.
Seventeen years in big time moves of God, I have never danced in the Spirit or fell out.
I have even prayed and asked God for this experience.
I have danced and run around the Church as a sacrifice to praise God.
But have never been slain in the spirit or danced in the spirit.

PS. I have to say I have had mighty praying through in the spirit.
Also I have played music while the H.G. was so strong, the sound of the music faded away from my hearing, but I still played on time and almost effortless.

I detest that chicanery! If it's God, no one needs pushed!!

If it is not God, and someone, a man of God, no less, is trying to "produce" it, that, IMO, is some of the worst kind of deception.

A messianic Jewish rabbi in Jereusalem personally told me that Jews believe that if someone falls BACKWARDS, it is considered demonic. This is due to the fact in the Bible anytime someone fell down in the presence of God, it was always FORWARD on their face.

I don't need that experience. If God did it to me, I wouldn't mind either. I really don't care if someone "falls out" at NLC or not. I DO care if they are connected to Jesus Christ.

Interesting what the rabbi said.
I have prayed at the alter during service and felt God envelope me and the noise of the crowd and music would fade away. But I would have to be calm, still and focused on God. A shout or dance would just interrupt that.
To be Honest I have had better H.G. experiences at home in Prayer or when I prayed alone in the car.
Than In Church.

I also have no praise or use for folks who try get folks to speak in "tongues" by trying to get them to repeat after them.

I have been to Cornwell's church before.
