I Corinthians 14

Intro: You have heard something about the Jesus’ MovementBut a few years prior, there was another religious explosion- it began with a husband and wife – John and Joan Baker• a Christian couple who were Episcopalians◦ they heard Pentecostal preacher teach on the baptism in the Spirit and speaking in tongues◦ they wanted to have that experience – and they did!• they told their Episcopalian pastor and he went to his colleague, Dennis Bennett◦ they had little knowledge, and no experience of these things◦ both priests also experienced the infusion of Spirit and speaking tongues- this was the humble birth of the Charismatic Movement• it spread rapidly through mainline churches and the Roman Catholic Church◦ many of these people had not known an experience of God like this was possible◦ the excitement was palpable and contagious• but it also rattled a lot of people and religious hierarchies
