Because it entered into my heart! I have a wood stove in the garage that is attached to my house. Keeping the wood stove stoked keeps the whole house warm and in the seventies. My heat pump is set to turn on at 65 so I can feel the effects of the fire if it goes out. Especially as there is a...

Creeds or doctrines of men... The Apostle Paul once said.... But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man. For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ. - Galatians 1:11-12 And Paul goes on to say...

Why don't I promote Pentecostal Holiness anymore than what I do? The reason being character in the experience. It used to be taught the experiences as three... 1. Salvation - As simple as the sinners prayer. 2. Sanctification - With the sweet spirit of Christ. If you did not have it they would...

I first saw the light of day at a Marine Corps base in Camp Lejeune, North Carolina way back in the 1960's. My mother was a Marine brought up Pentecostal and my father was a Naval medic brought up Catholic. As a boy I use to enjoy the times my parents would drop me off at my grandmothers and I...

I remember as a teenager that I would sometimes listen to evangelists preach with such conviction that the entire congregation would go for prayer. The sermon below was given by an evangelist way back in the 1970's in my old GARBC Baptist church I attended. There was so much conviction in the...

Which is correct!

I used to enjoy Jerry Falwells fireside chats with his students and would tune into Liberty University broadcasts frequently. I posted this video after a Christmas visit... Liberty University Bridge jumping!

True.... Virtue and knowledge are in two different categories.... Virtue of the spiritual heart and knowledge of the mind. St John once said.... 7 Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. 8 He that loveth not knoweth not...

I don't know what churches you are talking about so I can't reply. I find myself wondering where I would be if I were a young person these days. There are not many quality Christian conferences going on these days.

What I would call the Philadelphian age encompassed much Christian conference. If they could not sense Christ in the experience they would tell you to come back tomorrow night, and smile a little as they said it. My old Pentecostal Holiness pastor was a good example of sanctification and...

I find myself reminding them more and more that the ego of man is not the unction of God! @Salty started a thread, Have you ever heard of this denomination?, in which researching the Baptist Church of Christ I found they did have foot washing services, and found myself desiring to visit...

I had a book ministry at work in which some guy, after reading one of the testimonial books, wanted to get saved but not in my Pentecostal Holiness church. I had a friend I knew as Ray who was Baptist, well a soul saved is a soul saved! So off to the Calvinistic Baptist church we went! Well...

I would fear going overly Sardisean and ending up saved, but spiritually dead. And unto the angel of the church in Sardis write; These things saith he that hath the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars; I know thy works, that thou hast a name that thou livest, and art dead. - Revelation...

I fell in with Christianity by attending Baptist retreats as a young teenager and Pentecostal Holiness revivals as a older teenager. I felt the clean effects of sanctification, from dwelling where I labeled the inside temple, in both movements. In the inside temple there was good music, a time...

We got a new pastor who graduated with a Masters degree from Liberty University. I have no issue with his doctrine or mindset. The problem is, though, the poor man has no fire on the inside. His spiritual man does not seem to possess what his mental doctrine professes! I think there is a danger...

Self-made Christian? If you just float out there in this Laodicean age your life will also drift from hot to lukewarm to cold! I would also think it is going to take some fasting and prayer just to avoid going cold these days! As I believe this the Laodicean age I would also think going cold a...
