Baptists and Baptism

[classicalhero]

As a former Pentecostal, I would recommend staying away from them. There are many Christians who are among them, but the visions, "discernments," and other alleged revelatory powers, tend to lead primarily to self or group delusion, and much abuse. It can get you focusing too much on outward signs rather than focusing on Christ.

The Pagans love the Charismatic/Pentecostal movement, since the way they behave is extremely similar. I know a Pastor that my local church has fellowship with has had contact with some very strange things. He knew a former witch, who was saved by the blood of Jesus Christ and she told him about a ritual murder that happened in Sydney of a young girl, most probably chosen because she was a virgin. She told him how when she was actively practising her beliefs, they loved to talk to Charismatics and get them to change, since what they do is very similar, and thus they don't need much convincing to become pagan. She was legit, because they went to a police station to tell everything about the situation and the occult crimes unit asked her very specific questions and her answers were specific, like she was there. Unfortunately due to spirituatl wickedness in high places, the case was sent to a town that had nothing to do with the case, so it was forgotten. The esoteric knowledge and the "speaking in tongues" are what Pagans do in their rituals, so be careful not to fall into that trap, Lucy.
