Response to Evan. Bennicasa:

Brother, I see one major distinction in the folks that I have added to my fellowship, and the ones that you use to refute my statements and is that these folks proclaim the Name of Jesus. So your arguments holding up the magic of these pagan and apostate groups is simply a straw man to distract from the discussion at hand.

The folks that you associate with may be the exception, if that is so, God bless them.

Hey, I raise questions that should cause OP's to consider, and you simply attack me personally, what's with that.

Contrary to your defensiveness, I have no desire to bash OP's, but I do desire to provoke to good works.

Mormons uphold the name of Jesus; their church is called The Church of Jesus Christ. I brought up the other groups to show that anyone can be in a religion or program and get the same results as you listed. Apostolic One God Jesus Name churches are the best start for anyone who would like to make a spiritual journey. The Jesus name One God people are most devoted individuals in prayer, fasting and Bible reading. Anything else is just trying to go from New York to Florida by way of Toronto to British Columbia, and then down through California. It would be way easier to jump on I-95 and just head south.

CJ, they're not the exception, there is a great number of Apostolic Pentecostals who are so wonderfully exceptional people. They love the Word and are very studious, and are prayer warriors who love God and have the fruit to show.

Attack you personally? If I did it was not intentional; I use to be hard on you CJ, until I understood where you were coming from. One I understood that you were an Inclusionist, I took another position with you. I don't think the Gospel of Inclusion is Biblical, but I can still have a discourse with you and try to understand your belief. I also think you feel that what One God Pentecostals believe is not conducive to what you believe, and therefore you need to help open our eyes. I have no problem with that, just present your case, chapter and verse. Again I'm trying to have a discussion and without making it personal. Also I was pointing out how I felt that you started this thread with some subtle slams, but if you say that was not the case fine. I don't believe that anyone will make heaven their home without Jesus name baptism for the remission of sins, and the in filling of the Holy Ghost with the initial evidence of speaking with tongues.

Provoke may be closer to the truth?

Yes, One God Pentecostals have more fun than Trinitarians

Where God's presence is, there is His power also. If people are worshipping Him in Spirit & in truth, He will be there and He will do mighty works. We are by no means considered a conservative OP work, but God has been good to us. We have seen miraculous healings, miraculous financial provisions, marriages restored after years of pain, backsliders return, etc. etc. etc. We worship a powerful God and He answers prayers.
