In what form did the Holy Spirit descended on the apostles and what does this form signify?
Acts 2:3, 4 - Then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and one sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
The "tongues as of fire" signified both the presence and the work of God's Spirit, as some form of fire often did throughout Scripture.
Exodus 13:21, 22 - And the Lord went before them by day in a pillar of cloud to lead the way, and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light, so as to go by day and night. He did not take away the pillar of cloud by day or the pillar of fire by night from before the people.
Isaiah 66:15 - For behold, the Lord will come with fire And with His chariots, like a whirlwind, To render His anger with fury, And His rebuke with flames of fire.
It was also foretold by John the Baptist that Jesus would "baptize" in such a manner:
Matthew 3:11 - I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.

It is possible, neither faith requires your potential spouse to convert. I have known of several successful inter-faith marriages involving Mormons and other Christians. However, it will probably not be easy and will require a lot of mutual respect.
Most Mormons and Christians prefer to marry someone who shares their faith, but many are open to marrying someone who has different religious beliefs. If you do marry someone of a different religion, it is important that you show respect for their faith and practices. It is a good idea to attend each other's worship services, participate in each other's religious traditions, and choose to respectfully disagree rather than argue when it comes to religious differences. Before you have children, you will need to discuss how you will approach religion with them. Many have their children attend both churches and learn the tenets of both religions until they are old enough to decide for themselves which to join.

Why do assembly of God believe salvation can be lost?
The reason that Assembly of God, Church of God and yes, some Baptist churches believe that salvation can be lost is because salvation is not a license/ticket to sin. Yes, we do have an advocate with the Father, but becoming a Christian means surrendering your life to Christ and following Him as closely as possible. We do make mistakes, but we are to resist temptation. One of the previous posts states that one cannot lose salvation because the scripture in Romans states that nothing can separate us from the love of God. That is true. Nothing can separate us from that love because God indeed loves everyone, sinner and Christian alike. But, God created us to serve Him. If we couldn't lose our salvation, then why do we continue to repent of our sins even after salvation? You must strive to live a Godly lifestyle to make it to heaven.
Scriptural evidences:All of the following passages were written to the "saved:"Galatians 4:9-11 - But now after you have known God, or rather are known by God, how is it that you turn again to the weak and beggarly elements, to which you desire again to be in bondage? You observe days and months and seasons and years.I am afraid for you, lest I have labored for you in vain.
Galatians 5:4 - You have become estranged from Christ, you who attempt to be justified by law; you have fallen from grace.
Colossians 2:8 - Beware lest anyone cheat youthrough philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ. (See also Col. 2:18)
Hebrews 3:12, 13 - Beware, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the living God; but exhort one another daily, while it is called "Today," lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
Hebrews 10:26, 27 - For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and fiery indignation which will devour the adversaries.
2 John 1:8-11 - Look to yourselves, that we do not lose those things we worked for, but that we may receive a full reward. Whoever transgresses and does not abide in the doctrine of Christ does not have God. He who abides in the doctrine of Christ has both the Father and the Son. If anyone comes to you and does not bring this doctrine, do not receive him into your house nor greet him; for he who greets him shares in his evil deeds.
God holds the saved in His open palm, not a clenched fist. The Bible clearly teaches that no OUTSIDE force has the power to separate us from His love, but we can separate ourselves from salvation by disobedience or negligence.

Where in bible says you can wear ear rings?
At one point some are even commanded to pierce their ear.
Ex 21:5-6
And if the servant shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free
Then his master shall bring him unto the judges; he shall also bring him to the door, or unto the door post; and his master shall bore his ear through with an aul; and he shall serve him for ever.
What is the importance of tithing in the Pentecostal and Charismatic churches?
The New Testament and New Covenant through Christ erased the requirement for a tithe. However, it does say that we should give freely to those who are in need. Furthermore, it also calls us to give everything and follow Christ's example. That is a little tougher standard than the Old Testament requirement, which was actually about 40%. 10 percent to the Levitical Priests. 10% to the government. 10% each year to travel to jerusalem on a pilgrimage and 10% once every three years to give to the local homeless and poor in your area. The most important reason for tithing is that it provides finances for the maintenance and operation of the church. The paying of tithes is how all bills are paid and is how the various ministries of the church are financed. The paying of tithes also teaches one to be more faithful and committed to the work of the Lord.
