It hasn't proved anything. It's shown that there are some folks, who call themselves Pentecostals, who believe it's permissible to sleep around before marriage.
That's not really surprising considering the clientele.

Re: Sex Before Marriage: Does God Approve?
Mrs Bratty's post are once again on target!
"Choosing" to love someone.
What a concept in a world where we are taught the primary question is our feelings and "falling" in (or out) of "love"!

Which folks in particular are you referring to Charnock?

He's speaking evangelistically - - the only one that alluded to it was allstate and I'm not sure if he claims to be Pentecostal or not.

Perhaps more importantly...
In spite of all the other hyperbole in this thread, Allstate has also stated he believes it "is sin" in post 398.
"I do believe it is a sin!"

It is the other way around. Counseling professionals need pastorial education. Most secular counsellling is a waste of money. In some cases we see them take 5 sessions and not derive a "presenting problem"
Some people claim depression and we have become a Prozac nation. Under that sometimes a little repenting clears it right up.

One Person. Didn't say it was permissible (He said God does not approve), I didn't see him say he is Pentecostal, but maybe he is...you ever hear of a blunderbuster? That's what you got. You might want to trade it in with something that shoots straight and has a scope on it, because not only are you just shooting off like nuts, you are shooting all over the place but in the right direction
