You know I appreciate you as well and your candor.....Peter said we have a more sure word of prophecy and not to trust experience over the word....Without a doubt God sometimes does things beyond the norm, but there is NO such thing as DRUNK or SLAIN in the spirit....they are foreign to the bible......your Aunt's experience notwithstanding.
Peace my friend

The earmark and signpost of the Holy Ghost meetings are Demons cast out,people healed,people saved,set free,unspeakable Joy,and folks acting drunk,and falling down.
Yeah,we all know satan saves and sets free,and heals people everywhere we find his little mischief and destruction.
I used to Go to bars and get drunk with beer almost daily before I met Jesus,got the baptism in the Holy Spirit,and spoke in tongues.
I never once saw anyone in a bar get saved from being drunk on beer.

Really,you also think that the example of people falling down in 1 kings is from satan?
10 And it came to pass, when the priests were come out of the holy place, that the cloud filled the house of the Lord,
11 So that the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud: for the glory of the Lord had filled the house of the Lord.

Oh,here is another verse CONFIRMING how people can not stand in the glory.
That stands to reason that my personal experience with God,in many,many Spirit Filled meetings is CONFIRMED in his holy word with at lest 2 witnesses.
2 cron 5;12 Also the Levites which were the singers, all of them of Asaph, of Heman, of Jeduthun, with their sons and their brethren, being arrayed in white linen, having cymbals and psalteries and harps, stood at the east end of the altar, and with them an hundred and twenty priests sounding with trumpets
13 It came even to pass, as the trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking the Lord; and when they lifted up their voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of musick, and praised the Lord, saying, For he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever: that then the house was filled with a cloud, even the house of the Lord;
14 So that the priests could not stand to minister by reason of the cloud: for the glory of the Lord had filled the house of God.

The brownsville revival,where many were saved and thousands fell under the awesome power of God.
@ 59;30 THOUSANDS run to the altar for salvation UNDER THE CONVICTION OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.
Now,you mockers be sure and watch it and mock the power of God.

Remember this? Jesus spoke of a people professing Him as claiming these same things.
Matthew 7:[SUP]21 [/SUP]Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.[SUP]22 [/SUP]Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?[SUP]23 [/SUP]And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.[SUP]24 [/SUP]Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:[SUP]25 [/SUP]And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.[SUP]26 [/SUP]And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:[SUP]27 [/SUP]And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.
So in spite of the claims, what is the real earmark that they are in iniquity? Falling down, because they did not heed His words that Jesus is the only way to come to God the Father by; John 14:6, not by way of the Holy Spirit; John 10:1
John 14:[SUP]6 [/SUP]Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
John 10:1Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber....[SUP]7 [/SUP]Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.
But many that chase after the "Holy Spirit's meetings" listens to the devil saying "Did God really say that?"
Proverbs 25:[SUP]26 [/SUP]A righteous man falling down before the wicked is as a troubled fountain, and a corrupt spring.[SUP]27 [/SUP]It is not good to eat much honey: so for men to search their own glory is not glory.[SUP]28 [/SUP]He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without walls.
His own words speaks against those meetings that includes being drunk in the Spirit as not of Him.
So in regards to your experience....either we are not getting the whole story or that baptism of the Holy Spirit with tongues did not come about by you hearing the gospel and believing in Him as a result of that gospel, but later on when they were promoting the receiving of the Holy Spirit by the evidence of tongues as separate from the gospel.
Because that is what everybody else is talking about here wherein... what do you know.. you can receive he Holy Spirit "again" and "again" and "again" by bring drunk in the Spirit. It never ends. That is not the gospel of Jesus Christ, now is it?
Just spirit this and spirit that. One local church had to make sure that everybody believed in Him before they focused on the Holy Spirit's meetings because some visitors were speaking in tongues without interpretation before they were believing in Jesus Christ. The pastor did not want any red flags raised that this event was not of Him since sinners were receiving that supernatural tongue long before hearing the gospel of Jesus Christ to believe in Him......
