Which Reminds Me

Yes, it is an important point to remember, in terms of historical context that is sometimes forgotten, that my great-grandparents were in China in the role of Pentecostal missionaries. However, all of their descendants are not necessarily Pentecostals now, in the present generation, only partially, only some are Pentecostals and others are not Pentecostals, so it gets sort of confusing in that area, because those who are anti-Pentecostal are very rabid about this point, and those who are Pentecostal would prefer to avoid arguments on this point because, anyway, it gets complicated when you have to navigate through a variety of viewpoints and terminologies. It is easy to be confident of your own opinions when it is only about your personal church environment, but if you are subject to thrashings from a variety of groups of varying ideas, then it becomes very confusing.
