hmm, seems like they are agreeing here tho. i can't help but see Emo Concert at this pastor's definition of Revival myself.

well ok, i agree; but there arguably is no place called heaven, or hell, either. funny tho, the 'purgatory' thing is what most bothered me by the story at the time; and yet we have ample evidence for 'levels' of heaven and hell in Scripture, that run counter to our intuited, childish perceptions of them, and so in a sense 'force' a need for a purgatory, if that makes any sense?

Is this a tweet, or part of a message; and if so, is it online?

personal revival requires no intermediary, is possibly what i dislike about the quote the most.

Purgatory makes you feel better that you have some time left to get your act together after you die. At least that was my perspective as a Catholic - pass me another beer, please.

Mentions in the Bible:

Heaven - 550

Hell - 54

Purgatory - 0

Men cannot bring revival, start revival, or control revival.
Only God brings revival.

I have heard many say: "Let's have revival this morning". Etc.

As if revival is something that can be started by men.

Wait, so it's not a result of a Pastor - praiser connection?
