Greetings all!

Michael Gibson is my name. Some of you may know of me from Paltalk. I want to weigh in on my own attraction to Faith Assembly and then hopefully have some doctrinal discussions with you.

My Faith Assembly story will be different than most certainly not more intimate in knowledge of the Church or Hobart Freeman.

In 1981 I was in transition in my walk. I had considered myself a Pentecostal/Charismatic for 7 years. I had been having fellowship with an international Church at that time known as "The Ceylon Pentecostal Mission". They had hundreds of Churches worldwide and I was meeting with a small satelite group of theirs in the Dayton Ohio area.

Their group taught some similar things as FA. They taught faith healing and it was sin to go to doctors. They taught the Manchild (overcomers doctrine)and practiced head covering for women. They taught the doctrine that Christians could be demon possessed.

They had worship meetings that were wonderful. A nice blend of Charismatic praise and Pentecostal emotion! I had great respect for this group but I saw the truth of baptism in Jesus name. They opposed this strongly.

After being rebaptized I taught a message on this and was quickly censored. I had left the group and was having some fellowship with the small group where I was baptized in Jesus name.

Several times when I would comment on the word the Pastor would say "Hobart Freeman says that same thing". When I asked about Bro. Freeman this Pastor had visited Faith Assembly when it was in the Barn. He had many tapes by HF.

I did not stay long with that group but my interest was sparked in FA. The main reason why was they baptized in Jesus name. I got a few tapes by HF and was impressed enough that I hardly slept that night. The teaching of discipleship and the challenge of the faith message stirred my soul. Part one
