You know, I was surprised to find that a lot of children raised in pentecost doubted what was taught in their church. Some even doubted the Holy Ghost experience of speaking in tongues. I wondered if that was because it was common to them? You know, like they seen it all their life but never really experienced it? Just thought they did? Now, I am speaking about the ones I have personally been around. It just puzzles me that people can be around and taught so great a salvation and gift experience, but never truly experience that gift themselves.
I am not referring any of this to you Timmy because I don't know what you have experienced or not experienced. I am just referring to some of the children I knew who grown up in the church but have doubts now.
