That wasn't what you described here:
Now take 50 or a hundred, or more, of this same kind of Christian — those who talk to God in such a personal way because they actually know Him that person-ably (Philippians 3:10), and are filled with His Spirit. Gather them in a meeting where prayer is want to be made, and the preaching of the Word of God is in power. One might be very surprised at the manifestations of God in His people in such a gathering. This might be in a church house, or in a tabernacle, tent, or brush arbor — in a forest or at a river side. The place matters little. The Person of the Lord Jesus Christ being lifted up and the moving of the Holy Spirit not being quenched. My, my. What gatherings! What worship! What a Saviour!
As I said, I've BEEN to those meetings. The HS, had He been present, would have been appalled.

What did I describe that was un-Biblical or absurd? My remarks were general without detail as to any actual practice?
Actually, I doubt that you have ever been in meetings such as the ones I have in mind. Would you care to identify meetings you have attended?
Are you up too early in the morning? It’s 4:45 in the afternoon where I am.
