He should have stayed a Baptist he would have been far more biblically correct…He went from 1 Baptism of the Holy Spirit as a Baptist to 2 Baptisms of the Holy Spirit as a Pentecostal..

I don’t think so. He left the Baptist when he discovered the Holiness message.

I love old photos like this. Zooming in on his face, his personality really seems to become manifest. His face, and especially his eyes, seems to be both fiery and kind. I wonder, in what year this photo was taken?
