Between 2 Churches

SOMEWHERE IN TIME

I got a call from one of my brothers. Evidently some people (besides me) had been trying to convince them to try out an Assemblies of God church that was growing strong in Milwaukee and evidently they were thinking about it until they ran into a certain situation.

Their friend, who was a girl their age, was in a hospital bed recovering from something or another. Two groups of Christians came to visit her. The first group, from the AG church, prayed with her for healing and when she got none on the spot they told her she was lacking faith.

After they left, she cried.

The next group, from Elmbrook Church came shortly after. They prayed with her; some prayed that she would be healed but when no healing came they were o.k. with that because for reasons we don't understand God doesn't always heal. They talked with her and comforted her.

When they left, she was comforted.

Based on this my brothers decided not to pursue the Pentecostal (Assemblies of God) experience. Even as a Pentecostal I had to admit they made the right decision... because out of faith, hope and love, love is the most important.
