In more specific ways the spiritual influence of
group involvement
was also apparent: of the people currently involved, 90 percent claimed they
were better able
to forgive others, 79 percent said they had
been enabled
to share their faith with others outside the
group, 78 percent felt closer
to God and 66 percent had experienced
answers to prayer.
If charismatics
are right, they must not condemn any miraculous utterance, prophecy, sign, miracle,
answer to prayer, or spiritual experience of any person or religious
group as
being of the devil, for there
is no way
to be certain when and where the Holy Spirit
is blowing (John 3:8).
