Would it get soggy in the rain…? He could walk on water.
I don't think I've ever seen bread walk on water though. Let me know if you for some chance do though. I once thought about toasting my sacrament bread with butter, but I kept it modest and traditional.

@stunnedbygrace the only reference to bread walking on water came up as seagull food:

I heard someone talk about matzah bread once. It has stripes and piercings. Even their matzah speaks of Christ!

:-/ ugh

one of the first stories of Jesus ... his parents can't find him. where was he when he was about his father's business?

but the person who lives for God is the one who lives for him.

I am waiting for the Lord, but that is because it isn't time yet. two or more is the church. it requires fellowship, but the roof does not make it a church- the hearts gathering for God and the coming together make it a church.

and i believe people who get angry at gentle correction and loving rebuke are at risk of quenching the Holy Spirit.

While a few people gathered is where the Lord is, it's important to note that scripture spells out the establishment of Bishops and Deacons in church organizations who are to watch over the flock and make sure people aren't being taught false doctrine. If you need references to those scriptures please let me know and I will post them.

I already know what you are referring to, but I'm out of breath and having chest pain from being dehydrated/stress so I'm just going to sit down and drink water right now

I should probably say knowing somewhat about Washington states weather in the next few days. We are supposed to be getting 5F temps. I took some containers and filled them with water to store just in case the water lines freeze. Hope you get feeling better soon, praying for you :)

Did somebody get angry and I missed it?
Did you hear devin say he filled some jugs with water? Won’t he be surprised if they’re wine tomorrow??

Thanks devin I appreciate it. I didn't know about that but I saw the snow will be bad so I'll stock up just in case.

Pain is right behind my chest bones (??? What do you call them?) Very weird feeling and lightheaded, so not trying to scare anyone but prayers are welcomed and I need to lay down

No, I think my heart was squeezing for maybe 10 seconds but it's done now. I'm alright.

Thats it no more energy drinks
Or coffee

I didn't eat anything today and drank one of those Bang drinks and that was it. A little rest and I'll be okay. :)
My doctor told me to drink a glass of water with every cup of coffee, I got dehydrated a while back, can get serious. I ended up in urgent care.

So is pushing a particular church doctrine like mariology, praying to saints, worshiping angels, and such. So the forum rules are very confusing bc if we can't discuss SOUND doctrine, why are we even here? And why is this a Christian forum if rules forbid stating Biblical truth and refuting false doctrine?
exactly sister .
