Ok we had a young couple in our church came one Sunday first time to attend a church and some members of the church went over and laided hands on them and prayed for them and when Sunday school started the young man stood up and testified how good of a feeling he got that he wanted to come out of his clothes the feeling felt so good..now here is the kicker they have not been back to the church since. Now my question is if this really felt as good as he said it did why would they not come back...
If he was going to come out of his clothes, maybe it's a good thing they didn't - - lol!
I was in the choir one service - a real heavy move of God - - cleansing kind of service. I looked down to see this guy (about 20 yrs old) had taken his shirt off and was knelling down to pray in the pew. My mother was visiting that weekend and she was sitting RIGHT behind this guy. I about DIED.

A lot of people just don't want to tell the Pentecostals the way they really feel. I have had several people tell me years later that they were very uncomfortable in our church but just went along with the group because everyone acted like it was such a big deal and they wanted to make the congregation feel better.
Is it possible that this guy was just saying that because he felt sorry for the people of the church?
