    I am NOT a fan of Pat Robertson, however, I have watched him a few times on TV (out of curiosity). I read on some web sites that he was Baptist, then on another site, it said he was Pentecostal. Which is it? I know there is a Baptist group that is ALSO Pentecostal, but I didn't get the impression that he was in that group. Does anyone know? What church does he claim membership in? Thanks.

    Currently, I don't know. But in years past, he was a member of a Baptist church.

    Back when I was a new christian and watched him all the time he was SBC, you couldn't tell it by his teachings though that he was even a baptist.

    Thanks for the info everyone. Although my recollection of his past affiliation was Baptist, I'm like the one poster that he doesn't seem much like the average Baptist preacher or evangelist..oh excuse me..he doesn't like the word evangelist or "televangelist". :eek:
