So, did Moses David Berg, Yoneq Eugene Spriggs, Charlie Manson, Marshall Applewhite, James Warren Jones, Sun Myung Moon. and Swami Vivekananda.

All had had a different perspective on what the Bible was trying to say to the people.

Sadly, Huston's meme is what comes to mind.
Now saying that the whole thought of "soaking" in prayer, or in the word, is "weird" is fair. It is fair because those who have not heard the term in that context may very well find it weird. This allows the individual to perhaps explain what "soaking prayer" is to them, and how they have experienced it, instead of just assuming that what they mean and calling them a witch.

Stop, the posts are being levied at you.

I hate to break it to you... but nearly everyone who has ever read the Bible has a perspective on what they believe the Bible is trying to say to the people. Even you.

This isn't news at 11.

Nope. I didn't even start really posting in this thread until after I began reading what was being said to Michael. Go back, look if you don't believe me. In fact, I brought up the whole soaking prayer and contemplative stuff because I knew some wouldn't be able to resist the attack. I just felt like taking some heat off Michael. I mean, all he was getting beat up for was for liking some charismatic song or music style or something. That's not cool.

Your definition is found in the Lexicon of Strange Christian groups?

Ok, I was gone for a bit, so when was it you brought up Esaias in your chant?

Or something? You mean you really don't know why?

That's about typical with you.

Not sure what you're talking about. I never said a chant.

Well, can you explain why Michael was being berated so badly?
