Pentecostalism is exactly what was done at Pentecost and I LIVE and BREATHE my life in the same way that those on the Day Of Pentecost did do , sans the tongues speaking. I've never done that , but I have FAITH that when and if and where and how and why God wants to do that, He will, and, I will open
A church that can understand that FAITH runs the human mind, faith in Him, WILL gain Him. Otherwise..... Now, that's not to say there are not many denominations with a faith in Him that transcends Scripture, that goes into the very being of our lives and ways that God interacts, even so, sometimes, GASP, having us grow long hair when Paul says that's taboo, even when God says that taking His name in vain is wrong, for, on the streets, how else can you reach some IF you don't 'rattle' there cages !!! You HAVE to, ultimately, let the Lord work through you, and, how He works is for an infinitely GREATER mind than the one you got, which is not His, but, take heart, console in the fact, Paul tells us, we have 'the mind of Christ.'
Evangelism, yes, rache, YOU GOT IT !!! That is where it's at, unless "Go into all the world and baptize in the name of the Father, Son, Holy Spirit" is not true.
And, somtimes, as said in my earlier post in this thread, that 'world' God wants you to go into is much closer than you think, it's right even, sometimes, YOUR CHURCH, that needs encouragement. I don't know how you go about doing that kind of 'faith' work IF you are not in a church that is growing and doing things for the poor, needy, of your town and other towns and other countries but He does Pray to Him, you will know exactly where you are to go, what you are to do, why you are to do it, when you are to do it, and, how you are to do it . I like the Scripture verse that let's us know that things don't go our way, they go His way, we are but vessels, that are to be 'pure' and are to KNOW that we CAN be used for 'silver' and 'gold' purposes, ah, yes, just as that snowman guy sings in start of 'Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer,' that sweetly CAN be our work for Him. He says it, NOT me, so, don't just turn up your nose, that just means you're snubbing someone who made you, cares for you, and, WANTS you to cast all your cares on Him, even others' cares that are part of your life, like your church body
Has YOUR church helped you in the past, have they? Have you been down in the dumps and your pastor or a parishioner came to you and helped you through that time ??? Have they? Surely, someone has and so to appreciate them in a way of helping that church you attend, which may be in trouble financially, or, spiritually--due to some problem like 1 Corinthians 5 speaks of with adultery.
IF all we do is complain about things, and, look from things from the outside in , we will never figure things out, as God intends, working from the inside out, throu8gh FAITH , that which He measured to you for you to use, for you to work
