>Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit; and there are varieties of service, but the same Lord; and there are varieties of working, but it is the same God who inspires them all in every one. To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good. To one is given through the Spirit the power of knocking out someone, which is a power given to all our Pentecostal Priests, which should be administered freely and lovingly, that all may know that the gift of the spirit is like a stroke.

They're voodoo tier tbh

Not really a scam, though I do think most of these “gifts” are just placebos from excitement

>Would they be considered Christian by the standards of this board?

Mostly. Oneness Pentecostals would be banned, but that’s a minority. The rest are fine

I consider myself "pentecostal", whatever that means anymore, but the churches I've grown in and have attended all my life wouldn't be the mythical stuff a lot of you guys think of when you hear about pentecostals.

Hey smoothbrain, this board defines a Christian as anyone who affirms the nicene creed. Since ‘’most’’ Pentecostals believe in the nicene creed, they would “mostly” be considered Christians.

Doesn't Anderson explicitly reject Nicene Christianity? I'm pretty sure I saw that in one of his videos.

He refuses to accept the Nicene Creed because it says "catholic"

I honestly know very little about them. What is their liturgy like? Do they have any particular statement of beliefs? What do they believe about sacraments?

The least he could do was claim that his dull little warehouse IS the Catholic Church. I don't see how even Baptists can take him seriously, though I suppose most don't.
