And boy, does abiding take constant effort. Hoping one day it will be a well developed habit! ♥

Ha, well I would say, @bbyrd009 might have a better handle on it than I...

Yes Marks, I agree. And, there are a few on here that I love very much whom do believe differently than we do on this. I do not do mystical or new agey stuff, ever. I stand on this verse: "According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through...

Ahaha...not THAT scary! Yeah, weird sense of humor, but always clean ♥

I wouldn't worry about new furniture Nancy. If people are keen to study the scriptures, packing crates won't be an issue to sit on. All the externals fade into insignificance when people are focused. Incidentally, when I was in the PNG islands, the seating for people even in their churches were...

I probably could. Just have to find one close to me, that is not a CC. I live in the heart of the Irish Catholic part of Buffalo, and there is a CC and a bar on just about every corner! :D I checked out one or two...a friend goes to one but, they get very political and I will avoid that at...

Why, that could be so but my guess is that she would be scratching like heck at the lid of her coffin! :D

Hi JP! Great post. "If self be the doer of the things, the works will be burnt up, the believer themselves will be saved, but as it were through fire." The only way that I am aware of as to how to separate works of the Spirit and works of the flesh is that if doing something for someone in need...

"Num 21:6 YHWH sent saraph serpents against the people. They bit the people and many of the Israelites died. 21:7 The people came to Moses and said, “We sinned by speaking against YHWH and against you. Intercede with YHWH to take away the serpents from us!” And Moses interceded for the people."...

Well, it is not a characterization but a reality IRL, that is. I prefer to remain Christian based, NOT that the secular has nothing to offer but...I prefer the best ;)

What do you suppose Marie Antoinette would be doing today if she were alive?

:D

Yes Pearl, they do but they are all an hour away from me and, even though we had the new campus open 10 minutes from my home, all the small groups are still out near the main Church building as, that is the largest and the new campus I go to, still has to get it all together with the small groups.

Yes, I suppose our expectations do differ. Yet, should we (Christians) not expect a certain attitude from another Christian? Like, oh I don't know...maybe LOVE?! Lol. If one claims to be a Christian yet, does not live or act like one...if it walks like, if it talks like. My discernment took...

Awesome and well thought out post @Ernest T. Bass I will read it over again later. I saved it to a notepad on my desktop. Thank you and God Bless.

Ahaha...a Yugo...I once heard that if you bought a Cadillac, you would get a bonus - a brand new Yugo in the trunk :D. Had a friend with one of those once.

Be safe.

Living alone the huge majority of my life, and liking it that way because it brought me peace. The last 7 years I have had several roomers and charged very low rent because I bought this little house (first house ever) I only rented the upstairs rooms, with a bathroom, to help to fix up things...
