The post is an attack on the Charismatics of the world, and God’s Word says in Scripture “the only unforgivable sin is blasphemy against the Holy Spirit”....opposing the Holy Spirit is denying the book of ACTS and the experiences in the Upper Room. Those are as real today as they were then.

There are 269 million Pentecostals today, who are dedicated to God, and their worship is set forth in Psalms 146-150. That is how God wants to be worshipped.

DAVID was right to dance before the Lord as an act of Worship. God also said David was the ‘apple of his ey’e...why was that? He respected God’s authority, Saul, and obeyed the worship rules. Yes, he made tremendous mistakes, and always he also repented.

That does not mean other forms of worship are not valid, and each can show how he wants to worship. However Praise and Prayer are more effective than any of it. The Word say “obedience is better than sacrifice.” Jesus said those he forgave the most would love him the most....so those good people who are critical of others way of worship would be wise to keep it to themselves to avoid God’s wrath.

Scripture also says “the effectual FERVENT prayer of a righteous man avails much”. Of course all must be done in love, or it’s in vain. Charismatics are from all denominations, in fact Notre Dame had an outpouring over 50 yrs ago that started a huge revival, and added millions to the Charismatic movement for 25 yrs. Azuza Street in San Francisco was an outpouring on America not seen before at the start of the 19th century...those things do not happen without the HOLY SPIRIT reviving his Church, the church is NOT a building but those who follow him with Christ at the helm.
There is a NEW revival coming, an outpouring of the Holy Spirit that has not been seen since the day of Pentecost.
