    It took me awhile but here is what I could find out for you.
    This was an odd incident that took place that needed to be looked into albeit unrelated to the question you asked:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_Comfort




    More to the point, on his own website he has an article called: "Doctor Luke's Cure."
    http://www.wayofthemaster.com/articles.shtml

    That is all I could find of his current writings on the web. He certainly downplays the necessity of medicine and rather blames a lack of revival for the problems of our society.

    If you go to one of his websites where his books, and others that he recommends are sold, you can see who he recommends. It is a horrible list, and seeing that it would not surprise me if he still held to those former beliefs. For example:
    At this site many such books are sold by him.

    He did not say nor imply any of that. What is wrong with you?

    Read the OP. He mentions "separation" and then lists things the charismatics do that he doesn't agree with--their music, their seeker friendly nonsense, their views on the gifts (read: tongues and healing). Then he says he might go out witnessing with them and not tell his home church. It's all right there in the OP. What's wrong with you?

    So do you object to their:

    1. Modern worship music
    2. Use of speaking in tongues and healing.
    3. Seeker sensitive outreach techniques

    Lack of a strong exegesis and seeker based church services.

    So you're fine with modern worship music and speaking in tongues?

    They do not speak in tongues at that Calvary Baptist Church chapel.

    As someone who is currently mentoring 5 Pentecostal Pastors, I would remind you that they "say that they believe in sola fide"; however, they deny it in practice through:

    1. Promulgating Speaking in Tongues as a requirement for salvation

    2. Promulgating a Gospel which "requires" new believers to "do good works in order to stay saved"

    3. Promulgating a list of Do's and Dont's ie, drinking alcohol, dress codes (some of them), and even confusing baptism at points


    That's my Opinion.

    Thankfully, a couple of the ones that I am working with are beginning to change their minds about a lot of things and I mean a lot of them

    That's nice.

    Are you OK with modern worship music and speaking in tongues?
