...however, I will springboard from that comment to say I think many people who receive the baptism of the HG by speaking in tongues hold this sentiment that when they don't get it right away, they start feeling guilty and examine themselves...and then when they do finally experience this, they ease their mind with the thought "Ahhh, now I must be in right standing with God....I must have done something right to deserve this"....and from here begins the dangers of self-righteousness and spiritual pride...and then the road to merit-based christian living begins...rather than a grace mindset....Rhona mentioned something in another thread about learning about grace in another church....
