  1. The Lady (Mrs Pam) that was in the accident is still in the hospital, she has had brain surgery to relieve the pressure in her head as it was swelling, she continues to have seizures and has episodes where she is unable to speak. Please continue to pray. Thanks




  2. Which way have you seen the Holy Spirit use the most for salvation of the lost?


    not sure,I believe that I've seen false professions and real professions from both. Though those who accept Christ through non pushy methods actually seem to have a life change as well as start attending church more often than the other. The ones from the more pushy way seem to never be at home after that. Not always but, more often than not. Just what I've seen.
  3. Ok I have been with many different people out visiting, and the way people witness is so different? I prefer to lay out the plan of salvation and give them the information they need to accept or deny Christ, but, I have been with some who will not stop until they get a decision one way or another, sometimes I feel that, that kind of witnessing closes a door. Just curious as to what others of you think, I don't mean to bash anyone and don't want this to turn that way, please keep it civil, just a discussion. Disagreements are of course fine.




  4. After our associate pastor finished a funeral there were some women talking near him about going to a gambling place. One of the women said something about sitting at the slot machines and praying for a big payoff. Then she noticed out associate pastor standing there and said, "Oh look, here I am talking about praying at a slot machine in front of the religious guy!"

    She didn't call him preacher, pastor or even reverend, but "the religious guy". No doubt, a serious church goer when not at the slots!


    unfortunately most churches are full of those kinda folks.



  5. I'm thankful that most IFBs that go worldly drop their IFB name, but there are some who don't and they are even more dangerous.

    The day may arrive when biblical IFB churches must add something to their name or description in order to set themselves apart from the wayward IFB churches.


    True, it's like gambling if you walk into a church without prior knowledge of it's beliefs. The devil has gotten more than a foothold, he's all the way in.

  6. Brother David Warner from Faithful Baptist Church in Omak, WA brought up a good point in one of his lectures. What goes through a Calvinist's mind when they are having children? I feel if there is at least a chance I can lead my children to the Lord than having children is wonderful but what if there was a chance my child would be pre-destined to Hell (and I couldn't do ANYTHING about it!)? I'd never have children again. Wouldn't want to risk it.



    I agree with that, it's hard enough waiting for them to come to Him, much less thinking that they may have no chance to. My question would be why would God send his Son to die on the cross if he was just going to select who he wanted in heaven any how, and send the rest to hell, what would be the requirements of whether or not he wanted you in heaven with Him.
