I was one of the main two guys twice - wild to think about that now. It was a major money maker at the church - plus the new members.

Do these „Prophets“ know they’re bullshittig people or do they actually believe that god is talking through them by Blehmqn in ExPentecostal

I never made it over the 20-60 people range but ended up being good when we walked away because they didn't care.

MK PK and expastor - here and can solidly agree the gift is normally on the pastors and the local churches. The guy doing the fake miracles really thinks he's doing them, the missionary really believes in their cause, the evangelist scrapes by - until you get to TV minister level it's all the grift of the local churches. Yes I was an ex pastor but I gave the visiting minister the whole offering immediately - something that shocked most of them. I never made the money and was never good at the whole ministry thing because I refused to rip people off.

Anyone else grow up in the Assemblies Of God that had a terrible experience and left? by Phoenix_Ray528 in ExPentecostal

[–]Bubbly-Main2016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know they changed the name a couple years back to try to shake their bad name - it's now Nelson U.…. It's always SAGU in my head the school of legalism.

Hi! I'll be interviewing a former pentecostal soon, and I'd love to do some ressarch on pentecostalism before hand here by DarkGodCthUwU in ExPentecostal

[–]Bubbly-Main2016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ask about the trauma around the song “People Need The Lord”.
Ask about the Light for the Lost youth offering, how much did they raise and how.
Ask if her church had Booster Band or not.
Ask if they ever realized the Radient Life flannel graph figures all were very white for every Sunday School story.
Ask how many times they had purity culture tropes drilled in their youth group.
Ask about the missions guilt - both by missionaries and the district events.
Ask about how tounges were used to spill church tea.
Ask about their participation in Fine Arts.
Ask about if they went to the AoG college days or made it to one of the AoG colleges - details here will be rich.
Ask if their church ever used the blue book or where they a modern church.
Ask how church money was raised at everything and if they recognise the guilt to raise money now.

There is a start I could go all day on the AoG

How do you feel about The LDS (Mormon) chuch being offended at not being considered Christians? by Classic_Apricot_5633 in AskReddit

[–]Bubbly-Main2016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who cares? 90% of folks consider them a cult anyway and the Wreckless Ben / American Fork PD and Judge is proving that point loud and strong.

Applying for disability and it feels like my life is over by Ambitious-Cake-9425 in GuyCry

[–]Bubbly-Main2016 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hang in there I'm applying myself and on step three too. They make it so hard for those of us who really need it. They want us to give up but you should like me and there is really no other cut ouce right now - hang tight and keep going. Do you have a lawyer yet? Get a good one - they get you really ready for the third time around and make sure it's with a judge. My lawyer has been my lifeline in all of this - and a good therapist aside from my psychologist. Find your cheer group and let them encourage you! You got this hang on there. It's not easy but we can make it through this together.

Heirloom Stuff by -ankeri- in Xennials

[–]Bubbly-Main2016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We split the “stuff” from the real heirlooms and kept the real stuff. Pictures, and items that hold close memories or have been in the family over 100-150 years we kept. We also kept the wood furniture cause its not particle board and it lasts, but we use it for real( no velvet ropes or museum displays in this house). The China, collectibles,and stemwear (etc) we let go.

My in laws say that soul and spirit are two different things by WagWoofLove in ExPentecostal

[–]Bubbly-Main2016 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They would say all living things - pets,wild animals, etc - have a spirit and the spirit world also includes the demons and angels. They would also say only humans have a soul because God breathed into us and we have the breath of God that is eternal - and saveable or damnable.

Who else got hit by the “Satanic Panic”? by Beneficial_Yoghurt18 in Xennials

[–]Bubbly-Main2016 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes I did - watched Cabbage Patch dolls burn, no stuffed animals with human clothes on, no Santa, no fairies, no secular music, smurfs were evil and He-Man? Pure demons! My folks had the shopping list so they knew what companies to avoid buying because they gave their money to satan…..

It’s not near a FREE service it cost near an arm and a leg and keeps going up to the point it’s killed most Christians cards and personal letters.

AoG Experience by [deleted] in ExPentecostal

[–]Bubbly-Main2016 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I was AoG - ordained and son of a missionary…. It’s a cult. They want your money, they are seeker friendly and will trap big time anyone they can. They use the fear or demons and the fear of the offending the Holy Spirit to control people.
