Good to hear from you again. Actually it was my mistake. "Anointing or Apostasy" was by Graves. Not everyone is interested in the scholarly critiques of the Latter Rain (although some say it has helped them). When I joined the Walk I had no knowledge about Charismatics or that JRS come out of Pentecostalism. I though everything he said was a brand new revelation from God and we were the only church getting this straight from the horses mouth. It has only been in the last few years after reading books like "Anointing or Apostasy" and others that I realized I/we was/were duped. However, I think others like yourself came to the Walk from a Charismatic background and others have shared that when they exited the LW they returned to Charismatic Churches. Please continue to share your story and thoughts about the Nichols book when you finish.
