Tough Times Never Last, But Tough People Do

"God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind."

(2 Tim. 1:7)

-Failure doesn't mean you are a failure...it does mean you haven't succeeded yet.

-Failure doesn't mean you have accomplished nothing...it does mean you have learned something.

-Failure doesn't mean you have been a fool...it does mean you had a lot of faith.

-Failure doesn't mean you've been disgraced...it does mean you were willing to try.

-Failure doesn't mean you don't have it...it does mean you have to do something in a different way.

-Failure doesn't mean you are inferior...it does mean you are not perfect.

-Failure doesn't mean you've wasted your life...it does mean you have a reason to start afresh.

-Failure doesn't mean you should give up...it does mean it will take a little longer.

-Failure doesn't mean you'll never make it...it does mean it will take a little longer.

-Failure doesn't mean God has abandoned you...it does mean God has a better idea.

Tough Times Never Last, But Tough People Do in "You can Become the Person You Want to Be" (p. 98-99).

ZOCIA Forum Finally Fixed!

Well, today is a great day after months and days of headaches because of the error found in http://zocia.org/forum

It was down for about what? Well, more than 6 months (probably) and I can't believe I've given up with the mess in database conflict after transferring the the server to a new server.

It didn't help any after trying different methods but finally was able to manage to fix. Its worth of trying again. I've learned to see that in life, obstacles, challenges will always be around but NEVER GIVEUP is the key. It makes sense now that even if I've left this project aside, after retouching it sometime later, its OK now!

Essence of Pentecostalism and Its Movement

The term "Demon-centric" would mostly have a negative impact to the audience while "Holy Spirit" seems to be Sweet and Beautiful in itself whether one experiences it or not. However, the practical reality of being Pentecostal is "Experiencing the Spirit (Holy Spirit) and not Otherwise." Experiencing demonic activities would not determine one's Spirit of Pentecostalism. Yes.
So, in Pentecostalism, I would classify a few categories:
1. One who Thinks Its Reasonable to believe.
2. One who Believes in It.
3. One who Accepts it.
4. One who Experiences, Practices, Lives with.
So, nowadays many who claim Pentecostals are no longer Pentecostal while some others are Experiencing it though they would never label with it.

The presence of Demonic belief is not a good measurement to proof that there is The Spirit around. Well, many would sidetracked on their Journey of Faith. After all, Pentecostalism is a Movement as in Pentecostalization (Globalization) rather than a doctrine or dogma.
(Its a personal thought though).
