I watched someone preach using mainly this story, resulting in many being baptised and being filled with the Holy Ghost, and it bothered me a little for a couple of reasons:
I'm not sure I buy the story
I'm wondering why people need to be scared to the altar
I'm wondering why preaching the Love of God would not be better
or, if preaching from the word of God w/o using this wierd story would be better
can't argue the results though, scary wierd story got the job done . . .
It actually was more scary then a Dexter episode, and that is saying a lot.
