I’ve been speaking in tongues since I was a child. Speaking in tongues is the perfect prayer from your soul to our heavenly father. Your thoughts may not know what you truely need but your soul does. Our purpose in life is to be of service to others, “help each other” there is no greater happiness.

This is not accurate.The way you make us seem is as if we’re snobs. We are not all strict and we don’t have to dress or act a certain way. It is some human nature to act and dress appropriate which we do and not only Pentecostals. Also we do cut our hair. I don’t know where you got that information from.

I grew up a Baptist, my husband a Catholic. We now are a part if Church of God in Christ. I wear what I want to wear. I haven’t seen a handbook that tells me what to wear. I Love our Worship service. The Holy Spirit is always present. In the Baptist Church I came from, people would just sit there during praise & worship. I never understood that. I will praise my Lord and Savior wherever I go. Hallelujah

It is not a trance but rather the receiving of a gift and instead of criticizing one should try and receive it.

It is most unfortunate, if not downright deliberate and misleading, that the link your cite (SpiritualAbuse.org) takes one to a website that gives information only on a tiny splinter group of the Pentecostal movement (the so-called “oneness Pentecostals”, or “Jesus Only” group). This is an aberrant group that broke off from mainline Pentecostalism many years ago, and does not represent the vast majority of us. Most of us mainliners, Assemblies of God and some Church of God groups, highly question their “Christianity.” We don’t consider them true Christians, much less true Pentecostals.

I read the clothes part and that’s kind of the opposite. I’m pentacostal and we don’t really spend a lot of time at all on clothes. A lot of wear jeans to Sunday service. We do believe in speaking in tongues. I’ve met some of the best people in my church and the people who speak in tongues are no different. I love my pentacostal church and I find nothing weird about it

Grace + Faith . Jesus did all that was needed for my salvation. I didn’t earn it, if it had a price it’s not grace. I didn’t deserve grace, if your worthy you wouldn’t need salvation,. Grace of Jesus is to Believe that He died, And is the first born of the resurrected. Faith is taking God at his Word. Many believe “in” God But few believe God.

i use to be a pentecostal christian, but left it! i’ve discovered something disturbing in there doctrine! a few years ago i found out that im hebrew (jewish) and learned that our messiah is not christian, he is hebrew and he kept the commandments and jewish holidays! and studying the scriptures for 4 years now i discovered that he did not did away the Yahweh’s(G-D) commandments or his holy convocations! The christian churhes are still under the Roman Empire church! Yahshua the real name of our messiah died and resurrected on a jewish feast! the holy spirit came on a jewish feast! the messiah’s return will be on a jewish feast!
shalom!

God is very creative indeed, but when he thought of Pentecost, he was definitely showing his HOLY wild side!!! Praise Jesus!

I go to a Pentacostal church but our pastor is not strict out clothing or how you look. its our view that God dosent care what you have on your back when you enter his house. and yes they do speak in tongues ive only seen it a couple of times and usally when someone is worshipping with all they have does the holy spirit cause them to speak in tongues. and its true we dont really care what everyone thinks of us we keep our eyes on God and Jesus at all times however our paster will ask everyone including other chuch leaders to pray for us and with us. so we dont just stick to ourselfs like some cult we actually love it when other churchs come to praise God with us. if you have a Pentacostal church where you live you should go give it a try you really feel the holy spirit!

Actually Some Pentecostal Are Like That, But Not In My Church, The People Who Are That Strict Are The Ones Who Always Look In The Old Testiment ! But Times Change .
