Man Says: (Reflections of an attendee of the so-called Pensacola Revival) “There was no need to pull out a Bible because the "sermon" was basically a string of anecdotal stories about esoteric and for the most part, undocumentable experiences. ...One interesting story was about the church that John Kilpatrick attended as a child. The church had been having a revival for six to eight weeks when the pastor shut the revival down. John Kilpatrick says that, "When he did, he raised the ire and the anger of a group of people in the church who didn’t like it." During this time, Kilpatrick was at a midnight prayer meeting when a couple of angels visited the group. John Kilpatrick’s description of the experience was that it was "spooky." Then John Kilpatrick and the other members of the prayer group went down onto the floor unconscious until the following morning.”

God Says: “I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom;

Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine.

For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears...” (2 Timothy:4:1-3).
