Have you ever been told you “don’t have the Holy Ghost” because you left a Pentecostal church or because you don’t speak in tongues anymore? In today’s episode, we expose the cult-like gatekeeping that ties salvation to a man-made experience rather than the gospel. We’ll unpack common accusations, confront elitist claims from Oneness Pentecostal leaders, and present a clear biblical rebuttal to the idea that Christians can “lose” the Spirit. Most importantly, we’ll walk through five genuine evidences from Scripture that prove you have the Holy Spirit. Not because of tongues, but because of God’s promise. If you’ve ever questioned your salvation after leaving a high-control church, this episode will remind you that you are sealed, secure, and free in Christ.
The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God. -Romans 8:16 ESV
