What is "Coming Close to Receiving the Holy Ghost"
 
Saw on Facebook someone wrote that service was great last night and that someone got close receiving the Holy Ghost. What is that? Is that some poor soul begging God and groveling at His feet pleading to speak with tongues? Is that God tantalizing someone with the gift but alas not giving it to them? Is it someone almost good enough to get it, but not quite? What does that mean and is it Biblical?

Stammering lips but not another tongue.

Close but not close enough?

Where does this concept of stammering lips come from?

the bible


Isaiah 28:10-12

King James Version (KJV)




10For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:

11For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this people.

12To whom he said, This is the rest wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear

Too simple, just too simple!

Stammering lips is an idiom, It is not the quivering lip.

Kinda like " The Holy Ghost is all over you, let it in, let it in" left ear-"c'mon, you almost got it, loose your tongue, let it out, let it out" right ear- 2 people in back shaking the person, the person in front about to give him whiplash cause he's pushing his head back with his hand on his forehead. 5 minutes later "awww you almost got it, maybe next time".
Thank God I recieved when I was baptised and didn't have to go through that nonsense.

I'm glad the nonsense stuff was done with me or else I would have stoped short of receiving his spirit....

I especially laughed at the guy screaming 'LOOSEN THAT TONGUE" at borat. I don't think this particular clip included that part of the guy screaming though.

Man, what a way to 'git the holyghost'. I wonder how much screaming in the faces of those who were in the upper room waiting on the promise was done? And who was the anointed preacher who did the screaming in order for them to 'git the holyghost'?

So many questions, so few answers.

Why would they be against cameras? Honestly, what went on in the service that wasn't a typical upc service?

Is there something to hide?

Just curious here, why did the preacher specially invite Borat to come talk with d microphone? I thought he was gonna give an altar call for repentance and prayer right?

And I just got it on my own. No shaking required to make some of my words sound unintelligible.

The over 100 that received the Baptism of the Holy Ghost at Cornerstone Church/Pastor Bill Godair on Wednesday night had the initial evidence of "speaking in other tongues as the Spirit gave utterance." They did not stutter and stammer - they spoke in tongues. It was a Supernatural Night in Salisbury, NC!

Did you make sure each person rolled their R's and threw in a Shando? That is the sign of a REAL penecostal!

Is it a requirement for tongues to end in a vowel?

2: Not all upc services at the time had men with such a lack of discernment in a service to allow it to go that far. So no, it was camp meeting, and it was not a "typical" service to men who would have never let this happen.

3: No, theres nothing to hide, just morals to keep and landmarks that shouldnt be moved.

*NOTHING* about the folks attempting to get borat to get the holy ghost was scriptural.

It was a pure show of flesh and pride. Borat was the least of the mockers there that night.
