Pentecostal churches are recognized or want to be known as “Scriptures Christians”, “Holy bible believing churches”, as well as doing whatever utilizing the Scriptures as the sole Authority in Christian issues. Every min of their days are spent reviewing the bibles. They price quote 2 Tim 3:16 “All scriptures is influenced by God and works for showing the reality, scolding mistake, correcting faults and also offering direction for appropriate living.
They accuse other churches, especially the Catholic church of not being Holy bible believing, Scriptures Christians, and refraining from doing everything according to the Bible. Numerous Catholics have joined them therefore.
However, a closer as well as careful research study of the Pentecostal show that they are not what they seem to portray. They are not as Bible believing as they claim, nor are they Scriptures Christians more than Catholic, neither do they do whatever with the scriptures as single authority as they say.
They are several things that Pentecostals do that are not in the Holy bible, many more ignore Scriptures commands, facts as well as guidelines among Pentecostals. Also the straight orders of Jesus Christ, our Lord, are not adhered to by them.
Many attributes of the church, spoken of in the New Testament are not discovered among Pentecostal churches. I have considered this issue for as long that I have actually decided to share it with other catholic as well as additionally Pentecostals.
Here are many of the things Pentecostal do, that are not in the Scriptures as well as those in the Bible they do not do. I really hope that Catholics and also Pentecostals will gain from this and transform as necessary.
PHANTOMS
It appear unusual that a church that claims the Holy bible as secrets of the bible revealed its origin and also a wealth of the Holy Ghost presents within them, do not tape-record phantoms. Jesus Christ appeared to St. Paul in a phantom, which converted Paul and attracted hearts to Christ, Acts 9:1 -23 Moses as well as Elijah Mt. 17:1 -8, appeared to Jesus, Peter, James as well as John to prove that Christ was the anticipated one. Lk 9:28 -36, Angels showed up to Mary Lk 1:26, to reveal the resulting Jesus Christ. The exact same to John the Baptist’s papa. Apparitions are for this reason an important part of the Christian belief and also scriptures, as they depict crucial occasions and messages.
Considering that the beginning of the Pentecostal churches, they have been no phantoms as well as apparition messages.
In the Catholic Church apparitions of Virgin Mary, God, Jesus Christ, the Saints and also Angels are so many. Such devotions as the Brown scapular, the amazing medal, the sacred heart, Devine mercy, are very popular, as well as were as a result of apparitions from a God that does not alter.
PRAYING ALOUD IN TEAM
No one hoped aloud in teams, all at the exact same time, thus creating problem in petition, in the Bible St. Paul warns against problem in Christian worship. 1 Cor. 14:26 -36. The Baal prophets hoped in such a manner. 1 Kgs 18:28 -29.
HOMOSEXUALITY
In the U.S.A, some Pentecostal churches wed homosexuals, they wed them in their churches, of recent the Anglican Church in England has done the very same. See what bible says” in the same way the males give up natural sexual intercourses with women and burn with enthusiasm for each and every other, and because of this, they bring upon themselves the penalty they should have for their incorrect doing. Rom. 1:27, Lev. 18:22, Lev. 20:13, an offence that brings in death sentence in the days of Moses.
