Boy, isn't that the truth! Everyone ought to hear about the little girl that was delivered. It made Sumrall a national hero in the Philippines and God was glorified through it!

I've never been slain in the Spirit yet, either. I had a Pastor try to push me over once, but I'm a pretty stubborn guy...he gave up. :mrgreen:

That's actually beautiful of the Lord to give you that dream, though.

Bibleman,
My primary interest is the great Voice of Healing revival of the 40s and 50s. I'd love to hear more about what you've learned from Rev. Erickson, or any other revivalist that you may have spoken to. Maybe you have an article posted somewhere that I could upload? My wife's grandfather was a minor figure in the latter part of the revival: Tommy Gargas. He passed a number of years ago, but if you ever run across his name I'd appreciate any info you could provide about where you saw it (for obvious reasons). He used to minister with Jerry Barnard (who is my wife's great uncle, last I knew he was still on TV).

NineCrows have you read "All Things are Possible" by Harrell? I'll have to dig through my Voice of Healing magazines when I get a chance and see if I find his name.

Hi ninecrows,

Look here on page 12 and you will see a listing of Voice of Healing members in 1954.

http://www.branham.it/joomla/documenti/ ... BRUARY.pdf

I did not see Tommy Gargas's name. BUT he may have been a member before or after this date of this magazine.

As to what I have learned??? Well where would I start? I have spent 100's of hours studying this move of God. They were men just like you and me that God used in a very powerful way.

Now of course I don't know it all... but if you have any questions I would give it my best effort to answer.


God bless

Jay, thanks for the suggestion. "All Things are Possible" is one of my favorite books. I've also read individual biographies on some of the major leaders of the revival, and would recommend "Only Believe" by Don Stewart. Thanks for the offer to search through the Voice of Healing mags, but you won't find my wife's grandfather. He started ministering too late to be featured in them. He was given an old tent once by Rex Humbard (or so the story goes, I've not been able to confirm it). My wife's great uncle is, as I've mentioned Jerry Barnard. He was, and is, a minor televangelist: www.thehorizonchurch.com is a link to his current ministry in Florida. He's getting older now, but was pretty well known when he ministered in California a number of years ago. Be blessed, Brother.

I'm familiar with Jerry Barnard and his ministry. I used to watch him on TBN years ago but haven't watched TBN in years now. I didn't realize he was as close to me as he is until I looked at your link to his website.

Too bad you don't have some kind of letter about the tent from Rex Humbard. It is always good to have those stories to pass down through the generations.

I've studied my family's history pretty extensively. The story goes that my 4th great grandfather was George Washington's tailor and he made the General's first uniform. Unfortunately, we can't corroborate this story. We do know that my 4th GGrandfather was born in Ireland in 1740 and came to America in 1760 and fought with George Washington in Valley Forge, PA. We have actual proof of that through military muster cards.

Sometimes there is truth to some of those old legends and sometimes they are tales that grow to be very tall throughout the generations.

In my family's case, my 4th GGrandfather, more than likely came to America as an indentured servant (http://www.amazon.com/White-Cargo-Forgo ... 801&sr=8-3) as so many did from the 16th through the 18th centuries. He was pretty old to be fighting in the Revolutionary War but was ceded land in Virginia after the war. And of course, the story gets much longer after that.

I was in Grace Cathedral when i heard Reverend Ernest Angley God's Servant say under God's anointing that he saw in the vision the Holy Ghost Himself LIFTING from many areas in the USA.


Reverend Angley can be a bit controversial.BUT he is one of Bibleman's favorite preachers.


was he right about this?????

Roman soldiers didn't just fall down. I was told once by a believer whom I respect highly that I should just yield to the Holy Spirit and go down. Well, God is big enough to knock me down and when He does, I won't have to "fall down" and I won't be able to stand up.


JayMc
Did anyone ever notice at every scripture verse used to support being slain in the spirit always is talking about unsaved being slain.
Case in point the unsaved Roman soldiers.
