He and several others here have never listened to that, and never will. They fancy themselves to be divine teachers of the rest of us people who aren't as blessed as they are, to be told all truths by The Holy Spirit.

Too bad you dismiss so much that could be yours.

No, you have to do the Control/A first to select the book...… THEN you can do the Copy/Paste in whatever manner you choose. (Click your courser somewhere inside the book first.) Just an initial Control/C will usually pick up everything else on the page, advertising and all. And you don't want...

Your last few words there are pretty much what I said at first..... we often end up just shutting our mouths and walking away. If we stay and "converse", our conversation usually becomes far less than the truth we believe in.

Well, I guess I should sign off for tonight.

Did I do something to piss you off? I thought you asked about the group, or I wouldn't have sent it to you.

I have dozens of books on my computer hard drive that I found like that, and then simply did a "Control/A" and then Copy/Pasted them into my MS Word program. No more returning to the website, and no more tiny pages to squint at.

If you mean "emerging" from the confines of a building, and taking Christianity to the same places Jesus walked, then, I suppose so.

This includes more, Aspen. There is also a downloadable SOF down toward the bottom of the page.. https://vineyardusa.org/about/core-values-beliefs/

Well, it hasn't worked out all that well. I still consider myself "Vineyard", but our local preacher and a small following began not to believe in Hell at all, and to make celebrities of homosexuals. We are presently, after 5 years, church-shopping again because the nearest Vineyard is more...

We actually began attending strictly because of all the hate rhetoric online about them. I figured if that many "Christian Haters" gnashed their teeth at them, they HAD to be doing a lot right.

It's free online.

The man who forged my denomination, John Wimber, was also a Quaker.

Yes, the key.... Your final five words.

Your last sentence is what that book is all about. The disciplines put us on that path of openness.

Just a random thought. Concerning "Heresy Hunting" and "Exposing" all those False Teachers (which none of us ever believe we pursue) “The mind will always take on an order conforming to that upon which it concentrates.”

A good way to avoid that distraction came in the form of the book I quoted earlier, Celebration of Discipline, but I'm afraid it might be considered too Legalistic for many here to really appreciate. However, it does open up a whole new world.

It was never required of A&S to give even one dime of that specific sale to anyone. They blew it when they tried to look good by lying about it.

Good idea... if we did not override it. How many times have you seen people writing that they know they are right because THEY have the Holy Spirit directing THEM. (Implying, of course, that those they disagree with DO NOT have that benefit.)
