The Lord has shown me today that at times talking to those who want to quench the Spirit is not as easy as I once thought it would be. I figured I could show you the Scripture, and you would belive it. But Glory be to God I have grown so much in one day, i now realize I have to pray for you, and just leave it be for now. I believe you truely want to Follow God, so I will pray for you Sir. I will pray you will see how ignorant in God's will for your life that you have become. Grace be with you, and may the Holy Spirit Guide you Sir.
On behlaf of Christ I pray for you,

And have I watched that particular clip? No Sir I haven't, I've never gotten it to work from this website yet. Though I believe its most likely one I have seen.
Well,
Thank you for addressing this, that is helpful.
Laughing not of God? Well, that's quite absurd, look at us! :-)
But, this out of control, stuttering stammering , 'drunk in the spirit' type of thing we have seen being manifested in these types of gatherings is not what happened at pentecost no matter how much we may try and read into it. Common sense ought to be enough.

| | Re: | | How do you know it wasn't that wild at pentecost? It was wild enough, to where everyone who saw those guys said that they were drunk. And it woudln't just be the tongues that would make them think that. |

You are speaking of a god of your own imaginations claiming him to be the almighty yet using him for your own purposes. Wretched men that we are who would use god as a way of our success and gain, our carnal appetites desire after the things of the world and surely to guise these frutions in a sense of godliness and doctrine is a pervision and mishandling of the scriptures that will lead people astray. You claim to know the God of the scriptures but the god you paint in our minds is a god of gain and sucess a god foriegn to the true god of scriptures.

You claiming of divine revelation beyond all of us including saints offered on this site such as: Tozer and wilkerson, leave me in a state of wondering how far can a man be decieved till he cannot even hear the true words of God. Dear sir if you are praying for me and fellow brothers and sisters on this site I hope you pray aright, and not only pray for others but yourself that you may be led into all truth. Me and others are not 'quencing the spirit' of God, rather there is such an extreme desire for truth and the spirit of truth in our hearts that we are not content without it or finding it in all situations. I would strongly suggest you watch this video: [url=https://www.sermonindex.net/modules/mydownloads/singlefile.php?lid=4217]The Love of the Truth (video)[/url] by Art Katz.

Decency and sobriety are two simple words in connection to the holiness which the Holy Spirit introduces through His sanctifying work.
Christlikeness is another term which fits as a label for the work of the Spirit. What Hagin brings, does not come along these lines.

| | Re: | | I was just showing you Sir, where the Bible does say that those who saw them on the day of Pentecost, thought they were drunk. And thats what you are saying now about Hagina nd his group. That they are just acting to wierd. I'll keep you all in my thoughts, I know if you pray for the Spirit of Knowledge and Wisdom you will recive it, God has already assured us of that. And regardless of what Satan is yelling into your minds, and putting in your hearts, Letting God give you what he wants to give you, is not Greed.
God bless you all,
Mitch |

Why did you back off from communicating when we began to quote Hagin on the matter of faith in Faith vs. biblical faith?
A matter to hot or difficult?

That is totally unnecessary.
Brother there is an awful lot of teaching here on this site, from many many men of God going back years and years. Not only in the audio sermons but in articles etc. Also, there is much wisdom amongst those here who have walked with the Lord and who's experience would likely overshadow your own as well as mine (in my case that is without a doubt)
It is quite easy to dismiss outright what others are saying without taking anytime to weigh and consider their thoughts. Also, in just a few short days it is impossible to grasp where people are coming from so it isn't really wise to just throw out a quick little comment about who is or isn't 'quenching the Spirit'. Has it ever occured to you that you may be doing the exact same thing here? Remeber the fruit of the Spirit?
