Even if one doubts or has zero faith, one may still be healed.

I understand your perspective, but Scripture does not teach it is an absolute guarantee while on this earth. In fact, a careful reading of Scripture demonstrates that Jesus didnt heal everyone near Him while on earth. 1. Total healing while on earth would mean that no one would ever...

I'm very aware of the AOG position, but thanks...

Hello, I wish I had more time to expand upon my answer to your above point, but this answer will have to suffice for now. To make those statements ignores Scriptural context, synonymy, principles of biblical word studies, authorial intent, and logic and places one's focus on a metaphor and not...

Strange reply... some have used weapons to attack churches here in the states because they disagreed as well. What are you really trying to say, and why would you use the idea of a weapon to convey it. Hmmmm

Yes indeed.

Hi, Technically, the Holy Spirit was sent from the Father through Jesus Christ ten days after He ascended to the Father on the Day of Pentecost. I never said that the Holy Spirit cannot understand grammar. I am saying that the Holy Spirit used the Greek grammar of the New Testament to convey...

I'll trust my knowledge of Greek through the Holy Spirit over your private interpretation... so yes, I suggest we part ways. Blessings

I'm just clarifying the Greek. Do you have a problem with the language the Holy Spirit used to write the New Testament.

The Greek Aorist Participle used in verse 13 teaches plainly that the Indwelling/Gift of the Holy Spirit is given AFTER believing, not SIMILTANEOUS to believing. The Holy Spirit doesn't agree with you, it seems.

I am having discussions with many pastors who like the idea of the Convergence of the three streams yet are still conservative and embrace all the gifts. I am excited to see what God is going to do. Sad

No, it has everything to do with misrepresenting what I teach. No conservative theologian on this planet teaches that man's sinful nature has been removed when man is born again. Here is one example from a conservative evangelical website: You are the only person I have ever read in my over...

Oh, you just reminded me. We have another distinctive teaching. We not only believe in general prophecy from the congregation, but we also believe in moderated personal prophecy for receiving Gifts of the Spirit and direction confirmation by those who are called Prophets. (1 Timothy 4:14-16;1...

When I visit an AOC church these days (I am not saying all our like this...), I barely see any tongue speaking, let alone any gift of the Holy Spirit, such as prophecy. It is quite fascinating.

1. I embrace apostolic succession. Actual authority was to be passed down through the centuries through the laying on of hands. 2. I teach that the Lord's Supper, according to Scripture, is to be taken weekly and that Scripture should be believed "This is my body. This is my blood." I do not...

Sticking to the text, Jesus's breathing has nothing to do with conversion. When this text is compared with its parallel reading in Luke, it is obvious that Jesus was Prophetically Breathing in view of the Day of Pentecost.

I no longer attend any AOG Church. Many God-loving people are in the AOG, but I have gone in another direction. I am in the process of incorporating a unique Pentecostal "Denomination." We have about twenty churches in agreement at this point. After the Secretary of State finalizes the...
