Then there are also others who come here truly in need of fellowship, and support from other fellow believers.
We can't all agree - that is impossible, and you have your right to your opinion, and it is as valid as anyone else's. But if you begin to degrade others without truly understanding their position, that is an entirely different matter.
Scars are difficult things, and wounds open up easily, even after being closed for many years.
Hopefully here on AFF there can be healing, and love happening. It can, if we all agree - to disagree sometimes - in love.

Ahhh, but who is being degrading ? I am simply questioning the validity and degree of disgruntledness. After all, when I state that I jump or shout in the spirit but am told I am just "following the emotional high of the song" and its really not God." Or I feel the "personal conviction" to not do or wear something and I am "brainwashed by a culture" that was indoctrinated into me from childhood.
What about that Mr. KTBW? What about the degrading of other people's beliefs ? What about telling someone their spriitual experience was just nonesense Mr KTBW ?

In fact I think that the insinuation of "hateful" Pentecostals is coming mostly from the fertile imaginations of bitter, backslidden ex Apostolics who are constantly trying to find a way to justify their actions. ~ strait shooter
