Living with God's Glory
The focal point of the early Pentecostal revival which began in 1906 was the Apostolic Faith Mission at 312 Azusa Street in Los Angeles, California. Continuous meetings were held there every day for a period of three years beginning in mid-April, 1906. This mission on Azusa Street published the well-known newspaper, The Apostolic Faith, which was one of the primary means by which news of the revival was spread, beginning with the first issue, published in September of 1906. The Apostolic Faith contains many accounts of shaking, falling, speechlessness, drunkenness in the Spirit, and Holy laughter which took place during the early Pentecostal revival at Azusa Street and elsewhere during the first few years of the revival.
Man is spirit, soul and body, and these components cannot be divided when standing in God's presence. Man reacts to God as a whole being. Therefore, it is probably foolish to think that man can react or respond in the realm of the spirit without anything at all happening to the rest of him. |
