  1. So, the Amish can't be guilty of saying or doing hurtful things? Doesn't make me think anything other than they aren't perfect....just like me. JMO
  2. My eldest sons girlfriend asked that very question the other night. I reached for my Bible to find some scripture to help my daughter with something that was troubling her. My sons girlfriend asked..."what's that"? The door had opened for me to speak to her about Jesus Praise God!
  3. Your new pastor would smack my fingers.....my Bible is full of highlighted scripture!
  4. A friend of mine has in past years, dropped a piece of candy along with a Bible tract into the goody bags of kids who come to his door on halloween.
  5. Their marital status should have nothing to do with their service in the church. I am aware that there are those who use the verses in Timothy and Titus that "...an elder should be the husband of one wife" to mean that a pastor should not be divorced. But that is a gross misinterpretation. What it means is that in that day when polygamy was a common practice (even among some who became Christians) the church leader should have only one wife. But there are still those in the Church who try to make second class citizens out of divorced people. Well said.
  6. Scientists say Jesus didn't exsist.....scientists say Jesus existed "but" ....and this thread has talked about the two news articles making reference to Jesus this week.
  7. That's the 'green puppys' name Umm....seafood ice cream? Yuck!
  8. I can't remember if I saw this in a post on the board before the changes or if I saw it somewhere else but this might help you in your choice of TV shows.......of anything really. If Jesus Came Back Today Would you have to change your clothes before you let Him in? Or hide some magazines, and put the Bible where they'd been? Would you hide your worldly music and put some hymn books out? Could you let Jesus walk right in, or would you rush about? And I wonder...if the Savior spent a day or two with you, Would you go right on doing the things you always do? Would you go right on saying the things you always say? Or would life for you continue as it does from day to day? Would you take Jesus with you everywhere you go? Or would you maybe change your plans for just a day or so? Would you be glad to have Him meet your closest friends? Or would you hope they stay away until His visit ends? Would you be glad to have Him stay forever on and on? Or would you sigh with great relief when He at last was gone? It might be interesting to know, the things that you would do, If Jesus came in person, to spend some time with you. ~Author Unknown~ Would you have to change the channel you're watching?
  9. A Gucci wallet may be pretty (I don't know, I've never seen one) but it won't hold any more money, credit cards or photos than my dollar store wallet will I don't know about designers being "evil"......they're making a living with the talent God gave them. Do they know Jesus? How do they live their lives? What do they do with the money they earned? Elitism and snobbery have been around much longer than high fashion......that's the individual, not a designer. I don't think it's wrong to want or have "nice" things but, they are just "things". In the end, they don't matter. This makes me think of a line from one of my favorite songs ~"If I should ask for things I want, just give me what I need" ~
  10. Amen! Thank you to Canadian Veterans
  11. I am an alien. "Dear friends, I urge you, as aliens and strangers in the world, to abstain from sinful desires, which war against your soul". 1 Peter 2:11 (NIV)
