This why Im not in Rangers or Assemblie of God anymore. Unfortunate to me,
Royal Rangers does not exist outside AG or pentecostal.
I believe in the Holy Ghost and baptism. But I dont believe in Speaking on
tongues as the eveidence of the baptism. Speaking on tongues is a gift to be
used for the edification of the church with a requirement to translate those
tongues is speakin to the body. I bleive with spirit baptism comes the power
to witness to others.
Am I wrong? If so please tell me. I jsut dont like it when people jump
around at church and act all crazy. Saying it was the holy ghost.
Soprry for casuing problems. Just the way I believe. I go to the non
denominational church now.
