Pentecostal religion?

[TabithaS]

I just have a quick question i am new to the whole pentecostal/assembly of God religion and beliefs and was wondering what exactly it means when someone..."passes out"/ "falls out" at the altar?

they locked there knees.

 

[Christ_ian777]

The person is filled with the Holy Spirit. God usually speaks something extremely personal to them at that point.

 

[Calvin]

I am not Pentecostal but they refer to that as "Slain in the Spirit". It is said that The Holy Spirit overwhelms the individual and they fall down.

You can probably find specific information about it by putting that title into a search engine.
