The Faith That Was Once Delivered to the Saints, May 1, 1955, Chicago, Illinois.

It was the Pentecostal worshippers that was making fun of those people full of the Holy Ghost. It wasn’t the Pentecostal people that—that was the… The Pentecostal people was the Jews, up there worshipping at Pentecost. And this was a new deal God give to the church. So we’re not Pentecostal. See? This is something new."
