I am Pentecostal. Somehow I missed those crystals and cloud sessions, I guess.
However, if you have actually witnessed such a thing, I am safe in saying that you weren't at a legitimate "Pentecostal" church. Satan loves it when he can trick people and cause ridicule by associating cults with true belief.

Let's just change a word here and there and see what we get:
As people felt they were being filled with the Holy Spirit, they became vocal, with sounds rising and falling rhythmically. Some swayed and some fell down on the ground and began writhing.
Invite the Holy Spirit in to fill the empty spirit, the empty soul. He said to invite Holy Spirit in, accepting him as the leader and guide for their lives.
I do note for the record that time4good did not deny the similar wording between Pentecostalism and Gaiaism (or whatever it is called). Neither, I suspect, will you deny the similar wording in what I "quoted" above with what are generally called "slain in the spirit" and "speaking in tongues".

I'd dare to say that the vast majority of what passes for Pentecostalism is a Satanic charade.

P.S. Is the "gift of tongues" available to anybody?
