What is "Coming Close to Receiving the Holy Ghost"
Saw on Facebook someone wrote that service was great last night and that someone got close receiving the Holy Ghost. What is that? Is that some poor soul begging God and groveling at His feet pleading to speak with tongues? Is that God tantalizing someone with the gift but alas not giving it to them? Is it someone almost good enough to get it, but not quite? What does that mean and is it Biblical?
