What Way of Worship Is Correct?
When Angela, a Romanian girl, was 14 years old, a Pentecostal minister prayed for her to receive holy spirit, and she began speaking in tongues. Her parents, however, felt that Pentecostal teachings do not agree with the Bible. The family stopped attending services and began to study the Bible with Jehovah’s Witnesses.
Disappointed at first, Angela soon saw differences between the practices of her former religion and the teachings of the Bible. For example, she read John 17:3, which states: “This means everlasting life, their taking in knowledge of you, the only true God, and of the one whom you sent forth, Jesus Christ.” Angela saw that those who receive God’s favor must first have knowledge of him. “How could I have received God’s spirit in such a special way if I knew almost nothing about him?” she asked. Angela says, “I thank Jehovah for helping me to find the way of true worship by means of his inspired Word.”
