The formation of the AoG is keyed to the revival fire
that descended on Azuaza Street,Calif almost 100 years
ago..
As a youth, my Church promoted a salvation message first,
and followed it with a time of prayer that led to the laying
on of hands, and the infilling of the Holy Spirit with evidence
of speaking in an un-known tong. This remains foundation to
Royal Ranger doctrine.
In many ways.. my Church proudly wore the title "Penetcostal"
and suffered criticizum being labled "Holy Roller" ect. in
defence of this doctrine.
*Salvation first.. followed by the gift of the Holy Spirit
...evidenced by speaking in unknown toungs..
*Here's my question's..
------------------------
Is the gift of the Holy Spirit, intended to be universal
to all Christians? *Are we as RR's too "defend the doctrine?"
Why do we embrace this modern "Azua Revival" as authentic
and fondational to our fellowship over... any other pentecostal
event in the past?
In sharing with others of like christian faith, is there
to be a separation, or preference for a Holy Ghost filled
Christian over the non- pentecostal believer? Would the
non-pentecostal find reason to be offended, if I suggested
they had not fully accepted all that God had for them?
Does being "filled" with the Holy Ghost require "practice"
from time to time to stay in good "faith" with speaking
in an un-known toung? Does one make a "mental choice" to
yeild to the Holy Ghost.. that others do not make?
'jes wondering...
