But all those years living for God leading up to that experience was ALL DONE BY ME AND ONLY ME....FOR I HAVE WILL POWER AND MIND OVER MATTER...and I alone showed the fruits of the Spirit by my own abilities and power.....
....uhhh, at least that's what they would have to believe since God was not dwelling in me all those years.
You are not hearing good news, when you are told that it is not enough to place your trust in Jesus Christ and his shed blood on the cross and that you have to wait for an experience to confirm....it is terrorizing news and can last for 16 yrs.
Oy vey....
SOMEONE PLEASE POINT ME TO THE CROSS!!!!!

JRoc, how old were you when you first spoke in tongues? Are you saying you went through 16 years of accountability after repentance before you spoke in tongues? Are you Dan's age now?
