Yes, it would have been difficult to say Grannie never received the Holy Spirit because Grannie never spoke in tongues. So maybe I would have resorted to a teaching where the Spirit is given at faith unlike what happened throughout the book of Acts as well to sooth my mind. But frankly, I'm more interested in serving God in Spirit and in TRUTH.

So you are saying first generation Pentecostals were teachers of false doctrines?
