My son-in-law, who was raised Baptist, has been attending Christ Church with us for almost four years. A few months ago, I brought up HGB in a conversation that we were having, and he responded, "What's that?". I try to be very careful not to offend, but I do say how important that HGB is!
My children have all received the HGB, but not all of the spouses have. I do pray for my grandchildren!
Has he not heard anyone speak in tongues during a service in 4 years?
Has he not seen anyone get the Holy Ghost during a service in 4 years?

He has heard tongues and interpretation, and folks speak in tongues while praying, but he thought that was all the charismatic gift of tongues. He doesn't remember a message about a personal baptism of the Holy Ghost with speaking in tongues.
We have a large church so the alter area is pretty far from where he sits. He has not been close enough to witness someone receiving the HGB!
Many See the UPC just as people saw the titanic. They said it could not go down. When it was reported that they would sink people went right on doing what they were doing, saying it can't sink. the first life boats left half full. People keep on dancing to the music and ignoring the warning.
Only when it was too late did they believe.
The same thingis happening in the UPC. She is on her way down. People are daincing to the music form WEC and ignore the warning cries.

You seem like a person at a railroad crossing gleaming about a wreck that could happen because you did something to the track!!!

Again forgive the personal reference I certainly have no desire to offend you. I was visiting my father once and went to service with him he is a Charismatic preacher I guess because I was there he preached about the HGB and asked how many had spoken in tongues maybe 20% raised their hands in a crowd of about 2000. The shock on my father's face was evident. As we went to lunch he did not mention it and neither did I.

At the tower of Babel when the language was confounded the folks there found those who spoke the same language which became their identity. Thus in these last days it is the same men of differing stripes are looking for those who speak the same language over the complete spectrum of Pentecost. Have you noticed NO cons have been preaching at Christ Church? Likes attract. Is this evil??? I think not. I believe the Lord is in this myself. If the passing of Res. 4 was the sole reason it would be foolish but everyone on each side knows this is NOT the reason but the last straw.

Many people see those that are mad at the UPCI for allowing TV ads, as control freaks bent on tell God how to be saved.
