Bible Note: Sorry, Ed... I was suggesting that pentecostals might better be able to define the "laying on of the hands," rather than it being the "zotting" thing. I meant no disrespect. Actually, I don't mean any disrespect concerning the use of the verb "to zot," either. It just sort of conveys the sense of how I understand some people to believe. Perhaps you could describe the significance of "laying on of hands" from your tradition's perspective. Thanks. |
