After one of our Holy Spirit Rallies a few weeks ago, the pastor of the church in which we conducted the rally posted the following comment on my Facebook page …
“It was an awesome day at Calvary Midland with Evangelists Billy and Vickie Burns. I am not sure that if in over twenty years of ministry that I have ever heard somebody teach and minister on the Baptism of the Holy Spirit with such simplicity as Brother Billy. The altars were full in both services with people being filled with the Spirit of God. Thankful for all that God accomplished today at Calvary Midland!!!
After reading and thinking about the comment for a few minutes, I could see that the pastor was giving me the compliment of all compliments when he said, “I am not sure that if in over twenty years of ministry that I have ever heard somebody teach and minister on the Baptism of the Holy Spirit with such simplicity as Brother Billy.” He was saying that I made the message so simple that everyone could understand and respond. The end result was “The altars were full in both services with people being filled with the Spirit of God.”
Many years ago, I heard Charles Capps make the following statement, “The Gospel is so simple that we need a lot of help to misunderstand it. And, we’ve had all of the help that we can take to misunderstand the Gospel.” Keep it simple. Keep it very simple and understandable and you will see the altars filled with individuals that want what the Holy Spirit has to offer.
