Now as far as asking for tongues. STOP! Do not seek the gift seek the giver of the gift.


Note to Renee - I've heard that before. Trouble is, those predisposed to an either/or mindset never find the gift. In I Corinthians 14 - Paul tells believers to earnestly desire the higher gifts and towards the end of the chap, he says earnestly desire to prophesy and do not forbid speaking in tongues.

An ex-AoG here...

My father was an AoG pastor. I did my undergrad work at Southeastern University (AoG), then went on to Assemblies of God Theological Seminary before transferring to St. Michaels.

I still have close ties with my AoG friends and minister in their churches.

:scratch: :doh: This cant be good news......

In the AoG....The Holy Spirit is a very present God in charge of the church.

In Catholic Church, Jesus left men in charge and gave them authority to make changes.

I hate to disappoint you, but as someone who has been to quite a few AoG General Councils over the years, as well as having good friends and family in various positions of responsibility within the AoG (pastors, presbyters, college presidents, District Superintendents, etc.) I can assure you that I saw far more politics as men fought for power/authority in the AoG than I've seen in any of the sacramental churches.

And you may not be aware that there are actually far more Spirit-filled Catholics than all the other Pentecostal/Charismatic groups put together.

I don't want to argue with you over this, since it would only derail the thread here... but your post shows that you're just not that aware of what the Catholic churches really believe/practice.

:doh: I used to be a Catholic too..:D

Respectly Father Rick
When an X AoG presents himself as a Catholic Priest....We want to know what in the world happened to you?


My possition is that ALL AUTHORITY IN HEAVEN AND ON EARTH is given to Jesus...In AoG the Word of God has final authority and not the Church over the word.

Be blessed Father Rick....We'll play tag later.


Later is now Father RicK....... We just have to talk about your claim of Holy Spirit led Catholics in another thread.


Respectfully

I used to be, but my husband is covenant, so we go there...still believe that way though!

Hi,

What's covenant? If you'd rather, you can PM me instead of posting it here. If that's more comfortable for you.
