No church and no person should think they are better than the other person. Our lesson Sunday was on humility...not long ago I told a person they were going to have to be humble to work for God...the reply I got then they had rather not be a worker.

No matter what we deem ourselves to be the book still reads the first shall be last and the last shall be first.

I do not know who is Assembly of God and who is Jesus name. I am a Jesus Name missionary but it was not the jesus name folks that were the first missionaries to Brazil it was the Assembly of God...

I have spoke at several of their ladies meetings and churches. In fact my daughter in law (one of them) her father is a well known Assembly of God preacher in his state.

I feel that I am blessed with a little more truth than him but his first wife left this world in a bus wreck coming home from a convention in the mountains..the bus turned over and she was pinned under the wheel of the bus and left this world taking in tongues...and she NEVER heard of baptism in Jesus name. I ask you, Whose sin was this?

And never think I do not value what I feel as truth but let us all be careful how we talk to each other.

I have given my whole life telling others about the Mighty God in Christ. I am very humbled to think that He that requires blood would think of us and robe Himself in flesh and become God among us.

Thad, thanks for telling me who I am talking too...sometimes I am in the dark...(most of the time) ha...

I doubt many would like some of the topics, so I read a lot.

On a related note... think of how many churches are named "First Baptist Church".

(I know its not quite the same thing but still...)

Isn't this like "The Ohio State University" or any other state university. Are they trying to claim that there are no other universities in their state?

You're right...it's not the same thing.

"THE BAPTISTS OF DALLAS" would be the same thing.

Thank you Sister for your kind words. I love the Jesus' name people, too. On the mission field we work together don't we? America truly is becoming the greatest mission field.

Dumb . . .

Seriously. *grin* If this bothers people, they need something to do.

Naming a church "The Pentecostals of _______" is nowhere near the same as "The ONLY Pentecostals of _______," which is what's being implied in regards to feelings of arrogance.

It's not arrogant. They're not saying they're the ONLY Pentecostals of that city. They're simply identifying themselves as Pentecostals in that city.
