I used to cry every single service.
You know, they'd sing about Jesus, and I would cry.
He would preach, and I would cry.
And he would invite people to come down to the altar; I went down every single service,
and I would kneel at the altar.
If they danced, I would dance.
And I would just cry I love Jesus so much.
And I didn't understand everything that had happened to me, but I knew I was changed
and I knew I had found what I'd been looking for my whole life.
And I'm down there at the end of one of the services.
There's a whole bunch of people down there.
And the pastor looks at me, and he goes, "That young man needs the Holy Ghost!"
I looked, and he was pointing at me!
He said, "Get up here!"
And then he called a whole bunch of people, and I swear to you this is what they did:
They formed a gauntlet.
They had two lines of people went all the way across the stage, and you had to start
at one end and go through.
And when you got to the end one, you are supposed to be filled with the Holy Spirit.
And I was, I was scared already.
I didn't know what was going on.
I didn't know anything about the Holy Spirit.
I had seen people speaking in tongues, but I didn't get it.
I just loved Jesus.
And so I started going down through the gauntlet, and people started hitting me.
It's true!
They are whacking me on the back and hitting me in the head and screaming…
I've had people screaming in tongues in my ears.
And they're grabbing my wrists.
And I'm going like this, and they're whacking me.
And somebody puts their hand really hard on my stomach, shouts in my face, and this actually
happened.
One guy's hitting me on the back really hard, saying, "Let go, brother, let go!
Let go!"
At the same time somebody's tickling my throat saying, "Hang on!
Hang on!"
So I got, "Let go!"
"Hang on!" shouting in my ears.
I am utterly terrified!
And I get most of the way down the line, and I thought I've got to get out of this somehow.
So they are waiting for me to speak in tongues.
I spoke in Spanish.
It's true.
And the pastor goes, "No, that's not it."
Now I'm not real proud of this, but I was so scared of those people I just made something
up.
It wasn't the Holy Spirit.
I just went, "Uga bugga, uga bayahbaya."
And they went, "Oh, yeah!" and they shoved me off the end of the stage; and, you know,
got the next person to run the gauntlet.
Despite that experience, I was still very hungry to be filled with the Holy Spirit.
I was still seeking for something deeper.
I wanted everything that God had for me.
I didn't understand it anymore than some of you do here tonight.
But I wanted everything that God had for me.
And I remember they had a little side room off to the side of the auditorium.
And I think a couple days later I went in there to pray, and there was a woman.
She was kneeling down.
She didn't hear me come in.
Tears are streaming down her face, and she had her hands lifted up, and she was speaking
in other tongues.
And I felt like I walked into the Holy of Holies, it so profoundly impacted me.
And I remember I knelt down in a corner of that room.
I said, "O God, I want what that lady has!
I want that, O God!"
And it was a couple nights later I took my girlfriend to the same little mission where
I had gotten saved, and she completely rejected the message.
But I went up front with a bunch of people afterwards, and I dragged her up there with
me.
And I made her hold hands with a bunch of people, and I got filled with the Holy Spirit,
speaking in other tongues in the same little mission there in Medford, Oregon, where I
had given my life to Christ.
And listen: It's been almost 40 years I have spoken in tongues to God every single
day since.
And there has been times I haven't known what to pray for or how to pray.
But, thank God, the Holy Spirit does.
And I'm just very grateful for the baptism in the Holy Spirit.
Now listen, this all may be new to you.
That's cool.
If you love Jesus, we're in the same body; we're headed to heaven together; there are
so many things we can agree upon, so many things we can do together, it's awesome.
But just maybe you are hungering and thirsting for more.
The only place you can get this… the only place… is from Jesus.
