Well if that's true then I will have to scrap my idea of charging at the door.

Still I don't see that many unsaved people at a church service, those numbers are a bit off.

Yeah... but there was concerted effort to make just that happen. Thousands of man hrs went into getting people there on Sun night.

Only Mr Smith said they were unsaved. They could just go to their local assembly. This is a General Conference not a week long revival meeting.

Ok, so I read that there may not have been a charge. I'm still worried about all these carnal people.

So not only do the unsaved almost outnumber the saved but they also all are filled?

Again this just doesn't add up.

Consider that this is in a city with a very large population and they spent the day out in the city evangelizing not to mention local congregations show up with their friends and families that have not spoken in tongues yet...I don't see why that number has to be far fetched

Im referring to the issue of those that haven't spoken in tongues for a while, not those that never have
