Neither do I.

But that really wasn't what I was addressing.

I think it is extremely important for us to be able to share our views... our views and opinions are just as valid as theirs. (Yes it is an US and THEM thing for me).

It's fine with me if someone wants to stay Old Time Pentecostal!

I wouldn't want anyone to change out of peer pressure or being forced on them. I like to see folks change from a divine revelation epiphany and enlightenment. That way, you know it's the real thing!

I was addressing Prov 31 response to OP in regard to it being wrong for a preacher to give warnings or saying someone is lost IN GENERAL and not specifically in regard to "holiness standards".

The clean shaven Pentecostal man without the jewerly is too old timey for the new improved Pentecostals.

So the first step to being accepted by and fellowshipping with trinitarian charismatics is the dropping of the standard.

Then it's just another step to "well they don't really believe in three Gods, after all it's really just semantics".

And then the use of the name of Jesus in water baptism is not as important as it used to be.

Thanks, but NO THANKS, I'll just stay over here and WATCH the train wreck.

I mean what does it take to be saved around here.

Bye Bye Old Time Pentecost, I will no longer have to contend with hate and anger from five generations of backslide children and grandchildren who knew the truth about all the sin swept out of sight yet still look as holy as ever and are involved in everything from music ministry to Sunday school.

Bye Bye Old Time Pentecost, I hope I never see another sincere convert come down to the altar only to be told, "you almost got it" come back again all the while those that shout and speak in tongues the most were the worst sinners.

Bye Bye Old Time Pentecost, maybe now I can actually invite friends and family to church without them being abused spiritually and if they happen to get to the altar, physically.

Bye Bye Old Time Pentecost, it took me a long time but I actually found out that most trinitarians don't believe in three Gods. In fact, they use the same scriptures to talk about God as we oneness do and almost the same terminology.

Bye Bye Old Time Pentecost, you filled my mind with fear and propaganda that if I ever questioned anything I was headed down the slippery slope and we all knew that it lead to a life of six packs and cigarettes followed by a slow death by lung cancer or some other dreadful lifestyle. But what, I actually found out that there were good Christian folks who loved God with all their heart that had left our movement. And guess what, these folks actually had the fruits of the spirit demonstrated in their lives.

Bye Bye Old Time Pentecost, you preached another gospel to me. A gospel of fear and anxiety. A gospel made up of only Baptism and tongues. I was never taught Christ and him crucified. I was never taught the love of God and how he sent his only son so that I might be saved. Only Acts 2:38 and how everybody else was wrong and going to hell.

Bye Bye Old Time Pentecost, one year away from you has changed my life forever.

You are a sad story, but you do make my point.

Have a nice eternity.

He may have never said the exact words that DG was going to hell, but the implication is there in full.

"FTR, I have NEVER told an individual that they "were going to Hell".

You're not really comprehending what he is communicating, as you're too busy being judgmental!
