@mychael May God speed you in all your endeavours with Him!

LOL... Do you suppose having a very high priced lawyer of man's law will win them their case? Oh, probably there are some [many?] of them around already, specialists in this area, bearing the title of minister or preacher or pastor and so forth...

Go the advocate! "My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:" I John 2:1

Are you asking of us or of God? Of us here you will almost certainly receive a very mixed bag filled with garbage as well as good things. Ask of Him to receive only Good from the One that is Good! "And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God."...

Even so! Whose feet are we washing? "Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am. If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet. For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you." John 13:13-15

Aye! Where is the Spirit? Where is the Body of Christ? "Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ: That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about...
