I grew up in a tradtional church environment but I decided that I wanted to experience something different and attended this charismatic church camp over the weekend but I was shocked by what I saw.
I witnessed what was called the 'Baptism of the holy spirit.' As the pastor prayed, people all around me were speaking in tongues, laughing out loudly, falling down, shaking, vomitting, and there was even 1 case of demonic manifestation. I just stood there and nothing happened to me.
The whole experience was very traumatic for me and I felt uncomfortable during the whole thing...I didn't feel at peace, didn't feel that I was in a church camp at that time.
Is it normal that all these should happen?? I know that tongue speaking is recorded in the bible but wonder if tongue speaking is really that easy and does it really occur so frequently among people??
