Joe k,

Give me an arminian who follows the RP, and he is still as lost.

The idea of an Arminian who follows the RP is an oxymoron.

Joe, we've both had our say and this is obviously going nowhere. It truly is my wish that you not have to travel 400 miles in order not to be "bored" with God's words.

At the risk of being named one of those who "has an experience" I still wish to say something. I have never in my life (and I've witnessed plenty) seen the "Charisma" get even a single foot into the church door without a resulting disaster for that congregation. It is my opinion that first a self-centered and "superior spiritual" behavior followed by emotional and a subtle demand for "better" music is the way they gain entry.

My distaste for those who claim and shout "Give us the Spirit" is echoed by Martin Luther who said to the (Charismatic) Enthusiasts of his day:

This quote is not meant for you but to show you exactly where I'm coming from.
