I agree with @freed_and_redeemed that God definitely is still using speaking in tongues, miracles, and prophecy is church today!!! 😁
Though, I do also believe that if you don’t speak in tongues, you don’t have Gods Spirit dwelling in you (Haven’t been born of the Spirit/baptized with the Spirit/by fire.) I can go into detail if you want, but it might get long. (I can ramble. 😬😉)
I think that a lot of people confuse speaking in tongues (Just personally praying in tongues to yourself and to God) and tongues and interpret (A message from God for a specific group, moment, situation.) This Tuesday I listened/watched a live service from a conference in Louisiana that was powerful and had examples of both. If you are interested https://www.youtube.com/live/uS0RI51NN5Y?si=fMq7WWh2335F8oY3 Praying/speaking in tongues happened all throughout service, but tongues and interpret went forth at a little after 2:40:00 (It seemed to be one of the longest ones I’ve heard) I want to say there also was a good example of part of what Paul meant in 1Co 14:27 (If any speak in a tongue, let there be only two or at most three, and each in turn, and let someone interpret.) It sounded like two gentlemen started interpreting different parts of the message at the same time, and the preacher quickly told one to wait.

It isn’t a list of “dos and don’ts” and it’s not just “a” religion, it’s the TRUTH.
YES! I like that! Not “a”, but “the”! 😁

big Jonathan fan.
(Jonathan is my middle name!!!) I love. . . and yet am disappointed with him. His story hurts me. 🥹

1) Oneness, Apostolic, Pentecost, Holiness, Baptist, Jesus name, Christians! 😆 (United Pentecost Church International (UPCI))
2) I have been blessed to have been raised in this awesomely beautiful truth!
3) 66
4) All my immediate family, both sets of grandparents, all my aunts and uncles, and all my first cousins. (Not all of them attending churches in the UPCI fellowship, but our churchs share beliefs on major issues.)
5) By sacraments, are you referring to what I believe a person does to be saved?
I believe a person needs to obey the gospel by repenting, be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins (Being born of the water), recieve the gift of the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in other tongues (being born of the Spirit), and then live a righteous and holy life.
6) Jesus is the head of the body (the church), but the UPCI does elect a General Superintendent, which position is currently held in the U.S. by Dr. David K. Bernard.
7) Three of my favorites are Timothy, Peter, and David.
8) Attending North American Youth Conference (NAYC25!!!!) biannually is pretty cool, though I also have a soft place in my heart for Bible Quizzing events.

Just imagine if we had a massive sun flare that struck the earth with a cataclysmic EMP and completely destroyed all electronics/electronically stored data.
We would be so free. 😕

Do I indeed sense a slight of sarcasm?
*Tsk tsk*
Not honoring your elders I fathom. 🙄
Thou art mistaken. I happen to be well beyond 97. 😌

🤣 Boring books!? Kate DiCamillo wrote the Mercy Watson series! 😂
I will admit that I have seen several of Dicamillo’s book that caught my interest while browsing, but their descriptions seemed kinda pain filled, and I’m not particularly interested in more woe in my life.
Have you read Beverly, Right Here, Louisiana’s Way Home, or Raymie Nightingale? They have interestingly done covers.

Twas merely a jest aimed at my lack of a writing habit (And my utter indifference toward this detestable “blemish” in my disposition. 😜)
Thou hast struck upon the very thing! I don’t plan too break my neck by unequally yoking myself. My compatriots would be bellowing “HEAVE HO!”, and I’d be shrieking “WHOA! NO, NO, NOOOOO!!!!!”

MY PET SNOWBALL RAN AWAY FROM HOME LAST NIGHT!!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
*Bwwwwwwwh* 🤧
My precious snowball! Oh, how I loved it. . .
I made sure it was nice and smooth, no rocks. I let it go outside and play. I even made it it’s own pair of jammies!
😖
S-sorry, I have to p-pause for a moment.
😣
🙁
Okay I’m good now.
Last night, I tucked my precious snowball tight into it’s little bed (I made it a bed too) and kissed it good night. . .
This morning it was gone.
It must have run away.
I guess it didn’t like me because I hadn’t given it a name yet. 😒
If any of y’all see it, tell it I miss it!
(The part that really stinks is it wet the bed before it left. Now I have to clean up the mess. 🫤)
