I try to.
I have a rather simplistic look at my Pentecostal roots.
God can do WHAT he wants, WHEN He wants, ANY WAY He wants with those who are willing.
I don't mind answering questions, but I don't have all of the answers. I dislike the divisiveness of it all.
I cannot stand the arguing. Debate is another thing but we are instructed to do ALL in love. I hope they all walk away with love. What type pentecostal church or other church...many accept Pentecost do you go to?🙏

It is a Pentecostal church that has a primarily African American in demographic. Very small group of about 25 people. Loving group to accept me into their fold. I also attend an Assemblies d church on occasion (just to visit) to support them and their camp meeting.

😂😂😂😂😂😂sounds good to me! Do you sing or play an instrument?🙏
Guitar some. I will be taking lessons starting in the fall. I am a bit older than most for lessons. But a guitar instructor will be teaching me how to play and be a part of a worship team. Looking forward to that

Have you ever had a supernatural experience, beside being saved?
I think one time, after I took a good nap and feel refreshed, before I indulge in how good that feels, I somehow decided to read the Bible which sounds like "relaxing documentary", and then decided to take a relaxed reading of the Word, and in a relaxed position, it speaks to me, and it is not even my doing, eventually, I somehow sense a faint subtle essence of I'm guessing 20-30 foot tall Jesus hoovering over me, repeatedly saying "my child, my child, my child" repeatedly

Like he was holding me by the chair that I sit on (similar to how I'm holding the Bible as I drink upon the milk of the word) which I believe is "cradling me"

as if expecting to see something
special
Looking back, I thought I was imagining a faint image of Jesus, but it could also be possible that I "saw" Jesus, but thought that it was mere imagination back then

While expecting ...


This sure gives a whole new meaning to "seek Him and you shall find Him"

Back somewhere closer to the day of my salvation, guessing 2 months after I got saved, I think I had vague awareness of Jesus saying "my child, enough said" while I was venting on paper about struggles

I'm not even sure how I sensed Jesus, and ... if I were to guess at the hand gesture, it's probably laying his hand on my shoulder as if trying to calm me while trying to assure me "my child, enough said"

for a long time, I didn't feel any of that, for reasons I'm not sure of, but I sensed it once back then and almost forgot about it

And I copy and paste my rant in the following ...


Rant:
yes there's still sinful desires in my heart, but think of it this way



can secular wisdom change our heart for purity? if it could, then we wouldn't have saved mountains of sin



if it could, then we wouldn't have to "give in" to sin.



if it could, then ...



Jesus just told me, "my child, enough said"



ok, the point is, for purity, secular wisdom is not an option
