[quote:Anonymous Coward 70661422:MV8yMDE5NzI1XzU0OTg3OTMzXzY2NEQ1ODVB] [quote:Anonymous Coward 23571805:MV8yMDE5NzI1XzMzOTQxMzU1XzM3QjA1QUVC] Yes there is speaking in tongues, which is said to be our unique language to God. During worship there is speaking in tongues and some people receive visions such as the holy spirit surrounding the earth or other very symbolic things that i can't remember. It makes me love God even more when I hear these testimonies, I live how Gpd pictures things for us :). There is also healing taking place at the altar through the power of the holy spirit. One time my mom asked for prayer about her fear and she said she saw a vision of an explosion of light. Now she hardly ever gets scared (she used to get panic attacks when she was by herself but not anymore) However, I have never experienced recieving a vision or speaking in tounges. Another time my mom saw a vision of our family being protected around a cross surrounded by flames. She saw angels dancing on our house lol. Anyway..I'm getting off topic. I find nothing wrong with Assemblies of God churches. I believe they stay pretty close to what the bible says. [/quote] 1 Peter 4:11King James Version (KJV) 11 If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. 1 Corinthians 14:19King James Version (KJV) 19 Yet in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that by my voice I might teach others also, than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue. 1 Corinthians 13:8KJV Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.

Original Message
I go to an Assembly of God church and everyone is very nice and holy spirit filled. The pastor and his wife have a very close relationship with God and they are not afraid to go all out in worship and get filled with the holy spirit. What's so bad about it? (I read some posts on the forum and someone thought that it was scary that Sarah Palin was part of the Assemblies of God church..why??)
