Not a pleasant comparison.

God get's mad at Israel.
God works on a pagan king's heart to invade
Pagan king is kicking butt when Israel decides to repent
Pagan king dies at the hands of another pagan army

Yeah that's the problem it seems. When we focus on the negative it's hard to tell if "we" are really happen anyone is saved. Instead we'd rather speculate on the morality of a few

3. The numbers do not seem out of line with what I observed.
4. We had people who attend our church receive the Holy Ghost for the first time in this service.
5. I fully believe that the impact of what took place in this service will be seen in the natural and spiritual realm in my city.

Feel free to crucify me for my observations
Thanks Bro. This is exactly what I suggested earlier happened. Houston is a large city and surrounded by many others. There are not only many churches IN houston but many others around the area that drove to that service no doubt with people from their church that were needing the baptism or just with invitees
