Dear brother Dorrington:

The NCT embraced by Sound of Grace does not "condone"
Pentecostal/charismatic doctrine. We do accept individual people who hold to
that dcotrine to participate on our chat room.

I greatly appreciated your post and look forward to hearing more from one
who has "been there" and found it is "wanting." I usually am not eager to
hear someone speak in dogmatic tones who has little personal experiece in
the subject of which he speaks. It is pretty difficult to honsestly
represent what "they" believe (regardless what subject you are talking
about) if you have been part of "them" or knowm some of "them" very
intimently. Caricature is still caricature even if done in ignorance.

At this point I see nothing at all in Scripture that in any way encourages
me to seek the gift of tongues nor do I see anything in Scripture that says
that it is not possible for someone to have that gift today. I am a
Don't seek -- Don't forbid, guy.      JGR
