putting their head below water? Are you conversing approximately baptism? If something yet baptism, i might say stupid too. this is obtainable you are going to an entire gospel church. What grew to become into as quickly as ordinary as 'holy rollers'. if that's the case, i will attempt to describe. In an entire gospel church, the participants have confidence in each and all of the presents of the Spirit. This includes, coaching/praying in tongues with interpretations/visions and desires/and greater. what's suggested as 'slain in the spirit', is got here upon many cases in the Bible. memories the place you examine somebody fell below God's means, or fell carriers on the sight of an angel. that's pronounced, in the Bible, that God abides in our praises. this is actual. once you elevate up your voice and start to compliment God, it provides an street with the aid of which the two your spirit and His is able to commune at the same time. this is 'social gathering time' for the Holy Spirit. this is the uncommon 2nd whilst the Holy Spirit is able, with the aid of your permission, to be open and freely show love. this is impossible to experience this freely open comforting from the Holy Spirit and stay unsleeping. this is like passing out. that's a finished and absolute relax from this international. Experiencing it, is so very candy and comforting, that human beings do no longer want to enable it bypass. it is likewise in this experience, the Lord speaks it seems that. i've got witnessed healings, as a consequence. whilst the Holy Spirit is alive and prefer lightening, the devil leaves immediately with the aid of fact he can not stand the presence of the Lord. So for the believer, that's an absolute relax. If certainly, that's a Spirit crammed church you're attending, do no longer begrudge human beings who blessing.You sit down there long adequate and the night will come whilst some thing brushes around the returned of your neck and you look and no-one is there. Chills run down your physique and you merely want to cry, you do no longer understand why. if certainty learn, we on no account understand how drained we are until we experience finished relax. This experience is greater effective than any spa. It ignites the believer and replenishes their desire in the following day. this is drugs.

This is a general question that really can't be answered well. Some pastors probably do and some don't. There are always going to be good and bad churches so choose carefully. Find one that teaches verse by verse through the Bible and keeps each passage in context. This can really decrease the amount of importance put on the leaders in the church.

In Kentucky recently some fool put up $25 million to build a museum dedicated to treating the Genesis account of creation as if it were scientifically true. Pathetic. I started to get upset about this, but realized that there are so many churches already built, spewing out so much B.S., that one museum more or less could make no difference at all. If there's a God and he's watching, he's probably laughing his almighty @zz off and saying to the angels, "No, no, don't disturb them, let's see how big a mess they can make if we leave them completely alone." Religion to me is a procedure by which we assign credit and blame for our successes and failures to outside things we made up, to show we aren't at fault (responsible) for our own lives. Tragic.

It is sad because the preachers are preaching their own or the doctrine of their central church administration's interpretation of the words of Christ and many are just simply accepting it either through laziness or ignorance.
This is truly how people are indoctrinated whether they realize it or not. The more times you repeat and repeat something the more that it becomes the accepted truth. All you have to do is look at the history of propaganda to see how effective it is in affecting the beliefs of certain group or the masses.

Pastors just spread the word of God and Jesus, they build up the church for the glory of God and Christ, or thats who the pastors should be building it up for, rather than for their own personal gain and take the focus off who we should truly be glorifying.

I'm not sure I agree with your premise, but I do get a bit disturbed with I see billboards and churches with the pastor's name and face on them.
The 'least of these' is the leader. Not the owner of the church of ministry.
But I simply go somewhere else and leave it to God to sort out.

I believe that a lot of Pastors use their authority to force their congregations to abide by their rules or get out.
A lot of Pastors believe that the Church belongs to them. I know one particular minister who does not visit his congregation and keeps himself in his office. He keeps the church locked up and will not let anyone in unless he has an appointment with them.
This is during the daylight hours. BTW he is in his early 40's and not ill.

It's all about the Pastors, their egos and how much money they can rake in. It has nothing to do with Christ.

and they all say the same thing."We do not want to owe any allegance to no Pope", but meanwhile they have set themselves up as one and they do not even have the Divine Blessing as the Pope has.
