e. In the last days three things will happen in the great Pentecostal Movement:
1) There will be an over-emphasis on power, rather than on righteousness;
2) There will be an overemphasis on praise, to a God they no longer pray to;
3) There will be an overemphasis on the gifts of the Spirit - rather than on the Lordship of Christ.
Clearly, the truth of this is now tragically evident for all to see. Everyone knows that the mainstream gospel being preached today is nearly devoid of any mention of repentance, sin, or holiness. And it is the youth that are going to largely the feel the church's decline (though they hardly know it). And many people are seeking signs (tongues, miracles, etc.) instead of salvation (which comes by faith unto obedience and baptism in Christ's name, even as he command us to do so in the book of Acts). Will this prophecy be fulfilled? That depends upon us, if ours hearts and minds are set upon him then yes. But if not, it is because many sought after the signs of God instead of him personally.
