Palin attended a Pentecostal church for more than 20 yrs, "speaking in tongues" part of worship

[npincus]

Most here probably know that... but when I told my sister about it today she FREAKED... she knew Palin was a "religious nut", but had no idea that her worship was so far out of the mainstream, that her congregation was welcome to wiggle around on the floor and spout gibberish... I think if this info was disseminated into the mainstream, alarm bells would go off for many, many who might find Palin interesting or appealing in any way.

WE BELIEVE... The Initial Physical Evidence of the Baptism in the Holy Spirit is Speaking in Tongues, as experienced on the Day of Pentecost and referenced throughout Acts and the Epistles.

WE BELIEVE...in The Millennial Reign of Christ when Jesus returns with His saints at His second coming and begins His benevolent rule over earth for 1,000 years. At that time many in the nation of Israel will recognize and accept Him as the Messiah, the Savior who died for them and all mankind.

WE BELIEVE...A Final Judgment Will Take Place for those who have rejected Christ. They will be judged for their sin and consigned to eternal punishment in a punishing lake of fire.

Official Statement Concerning Governor Palin

Governor Sarah Palin did attend Wasilla Assembly of God since the time she was a teen ager. She and her family were a part of the church up until 2002. Since that time she has maintained a friendship with Wasilla Assembly of God and has attended various conferences and special meetings here. This June, the Governor spoke at the graduation service of our School of Ministry, Master’s Commission Wasilla Alaska.

We have had some inquires into Governor Palin’s beliefs. We do know that Gov Palin is a woman of integrity. She is a servant of the people, she is a strong leader. As for her personal beliefs, Governor Palin is well able to speak for herself on those issues.

As Alaskans we are excited about our Governor being selected as the nominee for Vice President. As residents of Wasilla, we are ecstatic about one of our own being thrust to the national forefront. However, as a church, it is not appropriate for us to endorse any one candidate over another. As believers, we are reminded in 2 Peter 2.13 that we are to submit to those in authority. 1 Timothy 2.1-2 tells us pray for those in authority. This we will do no matter who is elected. We wish the best to Governor Palin, and Senator McCain, as well as to Senator Obama and Senator Biden.

May God continue to bless America.

1. Radical clerics in our own backyard

...and one of their own could be a heartbeat away from the reins of power? Wake up!

2. this sh*t is much scarier than Rev. Wright was...

after all, he was expressing his human perspective as a servant of G-d... these people think that G-d is talking THROUGH them... it's f*cking nuts.


If the former was ocnsidered out-of-the-mainstream, and milked by the MSM for 6 weeks (or more), can't this information reach the daylight?

3. since I'm Jewish, I guess it's the "lake of fire" for me!
