Step-by-step explanation:
General Superintendent Thomas Zimmerman responded to the outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon charismatic believers by issuing a strong warning to maintain Assemblies of God distinctives. He was not willing to allow charismatic believers to join Assemblies of God churches. The charismatic renewal was not seen as God's way of balancing liberalism and humanism in our culture. The Assemblies of God did not focus more on social action and care for the oppressed.
