Pentecostal experiences, as Jack Deere has pointed out, are at the polar opposite of the Bible based deism that you get in baptistic Christianity. Acts 19:2: “We have not even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.”

BIBLE BASED: contained in or relating to the Bible.

DEISM: the belief that God made the world, but there’s no such thing as miracles.
