  1. Thank you for uploading the video, watching and singing along with the saints now.
  2. Thank you for the update Linda. Jim was a trusted confidant and resource on the things of God. He will be missed but we shall meet again in Glory!
  3. Puerto Rico is a failed state. Full of corruption/socialism/communism, it's another Democrat Party money laundering operation. Admitting them to the United States would only add more Democrats to both Houses, terrible idea. It is a drain on the Treasury, I don't know what they add to our country other than reliable Democrat votes. I've visited and while the architecture reminded me of Florida, police standing around with sub-machine guns is a third world thing.
  4. We live about 240 miles south of Jacksonville, the First Coast. Our oldest daughter moved to the Sun Coast and now we spend more time over there. It's nice but like living in Fort Lauderdale, very crowded with many inconsiderate people.
  5. Billy Graham was never on the rails. Since the 1940s he promoted heresy after heresy. Since our last I've seen another clip with Warren and his theology is just plain wrong. He was making heretical statements but it's no wonder, since he doesn't really have firm grasp of God's Word since he's loaded his brain with all those phony bibles.
  6. It was in the 50s up there the other night! Climate changes every day!
  7. Consider this: https://www.amazon.com/KardiaMobile-Single-Lead-Personal-Monitor-FDA-Cleared/dp/B01A4W8AUK/ref=sr_1_3?crid=33FDW64V5NMVP&keywords=portable+ekg&qid=1677352906&sprefix=portable%20ekg%2Caps%2C100&sr=8-3&ufe=app_do%3Aamzn1.fos.c1e7b9a2-53cf-44f5-ab39-5386af17669d
  8. What is your point? That he is legit because he published a book and foolish people bought it? As a babe in Christ his book wound up on my desk. Thankfully it was never paid much mind and later learned that he didn't care one bit about the truth of God's Word. Well, I've never seen it but admit you've been around the things of God longer than I have. Was he on track in the 1980s or before? People say the same about Billy Graham, he was never correct.
  9. Saddelback church is not now and never was a scriptural New Testament Church of the kind that Christ built and died for during his earthly ministry.
  10. @BrotherTonyDo you have one of those portable EKG machines that you can read with an app on a smart phone? That's the last thing I need, we have the blood pressure machine, oximeter, diabetes testors, etc.
  11. Our Sunday evening and Wednesday services are about the same still as is Sunday School. I pray for the ability to attend regular services again. Am thankful for watching it on tv but it's not quite the same of course.
  12. Ours does alter calls and I love singing and listening to, "Just As I Am". ? One lady, who had been faithfully attending for several decades suddenly realized her fallen condition and got saved during an alter call and was scripturally baptized soon after. Some months later, she went home to heaven. So even a Wednesday night alter call can yield fruit!
  13. I believe it is because of our oldest daughter. She went crazy, had a child out of wedlock, got tattooed all over and is living with a woman as lesbians. It's like she woke up one day at college (PCC) and threw off God and everything we taught her. Rather than practice separation, I believe my wife keeps in contact with her so she doesn't perish from all the fool decisions she's become expert at making. Her worldliness is infectious or as the bible says, a little leaven, leaveneth the whole lump! My health hasn't allowed me to attend services regularly in years so my wife and other children (now adults) stopped going. With each hospital stay, their dress became less proper for a lady, replacing dresses and skirts for jeans and t-shirts and the 10 pm curfew went out the window. To their credit, they've each picked men that they will likely marry and not allowed any unworthy anywhere near them. One of the young men got saved at PCC last summer. I've not had the chance to talk about the things of God yet with the other. I'm sorry to hear that, hospital stays are no fun. Thank you for the prayers and I will keep you in mine as well.
  14. The first couple to claim alien abduction, the interracial couple, I forget their name, were members of the Communist Party USA. They were liars and their story was revealed to be just that by investigators way back when but still the media ran with it.
  15. A lot of things happen in tenths of a second that may take hours to articulate and not make it to print. I'm sure he was concerned for them all.
  16. Already has and phony healings with tongues and women preachers. Jesus has left the building! There's no talk of salvation, just experiencing the Holy Spirit. Well, we know the real Holy Spirit's job is to point one to Christ, not himself so these folks are experiencing another kind of spirit!
  17. Walk to the fridge for ice! At present, any form of excercise that I can is dangerous to my well-being. It put me into the hospital every few months last year. Praying for a new home with a pool. The pool will help.
  18. The KJV is the modern one. ALL of the others are based on the fraudulent Sinaiticus written in 1844. Lost people don't understand the scriptures. They want their ears tickled. These fools did the tickling. Not much discernment there. Six minutes in and am done with these Andy Stanley types.
  19. I did, why else would he be there and be blind to the truth? I got saved and started going to mass with my wife and children. Only person who carried a bible into services. As I grew in grace it became apparant that this was no biblical place to be for a Christian and got my family out of there quick.
  20. I think that's great what you and your wife are doing! Mine has run away from the things of God and I'm probably the world's biggest backslider for some time now. In fairness to myself, I've been spending too much time in the hospital and my vision has deteriorated to where I have not been able to read a book or look at the computer screen for very long. I bought a new bible with bigger font but it still hurts to read it. Waiting for my body to heal so I can go back to services though I can watch them on tv, it's not the same, I miss my friends and being in the presence of the saints. Spend more time than I should talking trucks, V8 engines and off-roading, racing, etc. But it does afford me the opportunity to witness. I loved studying bible doctrines and putting them into practice. Our children are grown now.
  21. Welcome Donut! What are your interests with regards to the things of God?
  22. So what do you think Brother Tony? Is his faith in the Catholic Jesus who can't save anyone because they have to do good works and Mary is over Christ? Or is his faith in the biblical Christ and he just likes hanging out around all those idols and lost people? Or is it something else?
  23. I'm not confused that was me rolling my eyes. The lost preparing for my departure? Really? I don't think so. The balloons are part of the political game called, "wag the dog". They want the citizens attention to focus on that and not the cloud of chemicals over Ohio and Pennsylvania, the admission that we essentially declared war on Russia and hurt Europe by blowing up the Nord Stream Pipeline and sending Ukraine armored vehicles and military aircraft and probably some other devious activities.
  24. Welcome Trey! Getting baptized is not optional, it's a command that we're to follow and not disobey. I reckon that the Lord has been burdening you to do it since day 1. You cannot be a member of and effectively serve Christ without being a member of a New Testament Church. So get it done. I've just prayed for you and asked the Lord for two things on your behalf. First, to make sure you know that you are saved and 2nd that you are wishing to become a member of a scriptural new testament church and not one that has lost its way or one that never was. There's a lot of fakes out there these days. After I got saved I kept trying to get baptized but the Holy Ghost prevented me from doing so at several false churches until I stepped foot into a real one. Had I succeeded as many do, it's not really a baptism at all since they don't have the authority to do so. I would have just been dunked and gotten wet and not been baptized. Keep in touch.
