    Friday Church News Notes
    CARY SCHMIDT’S CHRISTIAN ROCK CONCERT (Friday Church News Notes, April 14, 2017, www.wayoflife.org, fbns@wayoflife.org, 866-295-4143) - I received the following information from a friend: “Several months ago I wrote to you about my sorrow for the church I was a member of for many years. Emmanuel Baptist Church of Newington, Connecticut, was the first place I was introduced to your ministry. For many years it held public stands on separation, and music was at the forefront of that battle. I told you that... Read More View the full article

    Another example of what "soft separatism" leads to..... (the lead article).  Challenge.... Make a note on your calendar and check where this church is 3-4 years from now.  I pray I am wrong.

    I have a Morris Study Bible.  It's a good reference tool (apologetics especially) but I would not recommend it for your main bible.  Consider a good reference Bible for your main carry and study Bible (if that is what you are looking for).  This might help (presented as info only): https://www.wayoflife.org/database/referencebibles.html

    Again.. I don't necessarily disagree.... I'm kind of arguing both side here for discussion...
    RE: "wasn't allowed a calculator"  
    No.. but once you got out of school don't you make use of the calculator (or whatever) now?  You don't use spreadsheets to calc stuff?  Doesn't there come a time when you use new tools due to various things for a number of reasons?  Do you still carry a calculator around with you?  Why not a slide rule?  (I remember being taught how to use a slide rule... Ha!  That was some time ago!)
    RE: "looking up verses" (for memory) 
    I agree somewhat but in a little different way...  I can actually remember where verses are based on their location on the page.  So if I can remember that a verse is in any given book I can usually find it pretty quickly by going thru the book looking at that area on the page.  That is a great point you make.
    On the other hand... I find that if I'm sitting a class and there is a question about something and the teacher has no answer I can find things pretty fast on my iPad and Olive Tree app.  So for me, the app is much better at finding things quickly and on the fly....  
    RE: power, lighting, weather, dropping.
    I have a much bigger problem keeping my printed Bible out of the rain than I do my iPhone or iPad.  Drop your $100 genuine leather Bible in a puddle or in the sink, the one that has all your notes in it, and it is pretty alarming.  
    RE: dealing with people
    I think I agree that when dealing with people they are probably more comfortable reading from a book.  But again, I think that is changing pretty quickly. People are more and more reading from their devices than paper.  Young people would perhaps even be more comfortable seeing and reading from a phone or tablet, rather than a Bible. (I'm referring to lost people who may be intimidated by a "big, think, heavy, leather bound, Bible.")  Again... a WORLD view... NOT my view!
    And once again.... I don't necessarily disagree.... I'm kind of arguing both side here for discussion...
    Perhaps a lot of what we think about this comes from habit and tradition.... myself included.  If I don't carry a Bible into church I feel really, really, unprepared and awful even though I have a Bible and Study library right on my iPhone and iPad.  (and I do carry my heavily marked up and rained on Bible!)

    Step right up, folks!  Experience the new and improved "Glitter Ashes™ to Go!"  Come all ye on-the-go Papists, rapists and hedonistic heretics.  Have no time to sit through your blasphemous masses?  Just drive up and we'll give you your ashy forehead crosses right through your car window.  Want a little more pizazz with your penance?  A little razz-ma-tazz with your repentance?  Try our new Glitter Ashes™!  Who says you can't proudly display your sorrow and your sodomy for all the world to see?  Our new Glitter Ashes™ are like an activist t-shirt for your forehead!
    Church Teller: Welcome to Our Lady of Sodomy, may I take your order?
    Sodomite #1: Yes, I’d like a medium Glitter Ash™ and a side of Holy Communion wafers. (Honey, do you want anything?)
    Sodomite #2: Yes, I’d like an absolution and a large priest, please.
    Church Teller: That’ll be Five “Hail Marys" and twelve “Glory Bes.”  Pull up to the window, please.”
    If you think I'm kidding, read this article: On Ash Wednesdays, ashes to go - with a little extra sparkle for LGBT Christians.
    They just keep piling heretical doctrines on top of social justice issues on top of godless tradition.  It's like watching Dagwood Bumstead building a Godless Worldview Sandwich™.

    For anyone who may have been subscribed to the Way of Life Literature (David Cloud) RSS feed...
    We recently upgraded the site with a new mobile friendly (responsive) theme.  In that process we had to kill the old RSS feed.  There is a new feed for David Cloud's reports here:

    Hi Darlene....  Never gave my salvation experience here so here I go...
    I was saved in a little country Methodist church in mid-western Indiana.  Farmers and coal miners... my kind of people!  Anyway... The church was pretty conservative even though Methodist and they wanted to pull out of the Methodist conference.  The Methodist pastor was a student who moved on and we obtained an IFB preacher who preached the gospel each Sunday. I learned of my need to be saved and learned that it was by simple faith.  That was 1984.  I've been blessed ever since.
    Edit:  After being saved and talking with the interim pastor I was quickly into an IFB Bible Institute and I joined an IFB church.  Thank the Lord that I was taught that I needed to learn how to study the Bible and how to start discerning truth from "religion."

    Welcome aboard. Can you share your salvation testimony.
    I was saved in the 1980s in Va. Bch. Va. at Tabernacle Baptist Church, Rodney Bell was my pastor. I knew I was lost and hell bound if I didn't surrender to Jesus Christ's free gift.
