    "The Power Of The Spirit" by William Law I wish someone had put that book into my hands when I was first saved.

    What Are the Ramp Church Beliefs? Is It a Cult?

    The Ramp is not a cult by any stretch of the imagination. While the core of their belief system is very similar to the Pentecostal denomination, Church of God (which makes sense seeing as many of their leaders have attended Lee University in Cleveland, TN.), they tend to lean more toward...

    Christian book -Help needed plz...

    I know of an excellent author that both you and your friend should be able to relate to. His name is Dr. Michael L. Brown. While he is Jewish by birth, he is also very much Pentecostal in his beliefs. He has his doctorate in understanding / translating the Hebrew Language and has written several...

    discernment vs judgment

    I actually wrote the following post in another thread but I feel it fits in perfectly with this conversation as well: One thing that I have noticed in charismatic circles is that many seem to mistake being a very sharp judge of character with spiritual discernment and, in doing so, have...

    Pacifist Tradition in Pentecostalism

    A strong case for the roots of pacifism in pentecostal / spirit filled circles date all the way to George Fox and the Quaker movement of the 1600's. The beliefs of the original Quaker movement (not to be mistaken with the mess that it has since evolved into outside of modern evangelical...

    Not Believing in 'Personal Prophecy'

    One thing that I have noticed in charismatic circles is that many seem to mistake being a very sharp judge of character with spiritual discernment and, in doing so, have convinced themselves they are somehow prophetic. By a sharp judge of character I mean, that a person is very good at reading...

    "BOASTING" about the Gift of Discernment

    Have any of you ever noticed that a good majority of Spirit-filled Christian seems to professes to have the gift of discernment, at least to some degree? I can't tell you the number of times I have heard "well, something about that just doesn't feel right in my spirit" or "I have a very bad...

    A very real concern about modern Pentecostalism

    Out of your own disdain for the Holiness church, you seemingly have become guilty yourself of the very sin in which you boast about those who are Holiness. Proof that there is truth to the old cliche; "Unrepentant bitterness only serves to turn you into the thing it is that you hate."

    I can't seem to pray enough.

    I know what you are going through and feel the same. We simply need to trust God and His soverienty. I know for a fact that He is raising up a generation of young warriors that are tired of complacency and sick of compromise. Maybe this will encourage you and your children...

    A very real concern about modern Pentecostalism

    My friend, all I am doing is sounding an alarm. The world sees the church as a bunch of hypocrits who preach one thing yet do the complete opposite. How can we reach them if our actions justify their opinions? If you feel "condemned" then maybe there's something going on in your own life that...

    A very real concern about modern Pentecostalism

    It is through God's grace that we are delivered. The process of sanctification is all over the bible and something that we should really take a seriously look at if we are going to overcome the serious issues which face our generation. As for the rest of the stuff you're going on about, it...

    A very real concern about modern Pentecostalism

    My goal here is not only to convey the message but also to recieve contsructive critique on the message itself. Where improvements can be made, where more clarity may be needed etc. I'm currently considering writing a large essay on the subject matter.
