i heard that. bloody freakshow.
Must've been a lot like Acts 2. Freaky flames over people's heads, dang weirdos speaking in other languages, some black guy playing a Hammond B3 through a leslie....
Jesus told Naman to dip 7 times in river, he spit in the dirt and healed a blind man, he brought the dead back to life, a lady was healed by touching his clothing...he tells us that by the power of the holy spirit we can do the same things that he did.
However, most of the religious intellecutal elite want to put God into a box and control the way in which the spirit moves. They are politically correct Christians...they don't want to make anyone uncomfortable.
Give me a service where some may seem a little nutty, and some very well may be...over a human intellectually controlled service in which the spirit of God had no room to move any day.
"i heard that. bloody freakshow."
Amazing. This is exactly what unbelievers said about the first Christian in New Testament times...specifically when they spoke in tongues.
They accused them of being drunk.
Freak show? In what way? My family has always spoken in tongues, especially my grandmothers. I do not consider them to be FREAKS.
