GSC is a very diverse place with many beliefs and attitudes being represented, all the way from Christian to Wicca to Taoism and so on. The most appropriate place to discuss those beliefs is in the doctrinal forum. However, the main purpose of GSC is to expose the reality of what was taking place and continues to take place within The Way. Before the site was reformatted, that was stated clearly on the front page. Perhaps you haven't been here long enough to remember that. It does appear to me, as indicated by some of your responses, JJ, that you haven't had the opportunity to explore some of the areas of discussion that have appeared here over the years, such as speaking in tongues, the Advanced Class, the law of believing and many more topics. If there is a specific area of concern in the videos you've posted, perhaps you could start a thread in the doctrinal forum to narrow the discussion a bit.

Click HERE Cadence and Cascade Kept a man named Jade; Cool in the shade While his audience played. Purred, whispered, "Spend us too: We only serve for you". Sliding mystified On the wine of the tide Stared pale-eyed As his veil fell aside. Sad paper courtesan They found him just a man. Caravan hotel Where the sequin spell fell Custom of the game. Cadence oiled in love Licked his velvet gloved hand Cascade kissed his name. Sad paper courtesan They knew him just a man.

Back in the day, we would have had a jolly time analyzing the "spiritual significance" of such connections.

As with many words, there is no single, concise definition that covers all the many nuances that can be applied to it. To some, an idol represents something superior to them, something beyond replication, something that inspires awe. To others, an idol is something or someone to be emulated, revered for excellence and given due respect. To yet others, the mention of idols may simply conjure up thoughts of physical entities, such as statues and monuments. It's all about context.

."....I hope you can take the time to look over these healing videos.One of the most powerful IMHO is a video out of Australia entitled "The normal Christian Life- My baby had a heart attack" they show actual footage of the ordeal..l4 whole minutes of your life." Link?

It's starting to catch on in the U.S. So far, though, it's in its infancy here. (aside from some university programs which have been around forever)

Just in one of those moods, ya know? " Sliding mystifiedOn the wine of the tideStared pale-eyedAs his veil fell aside.Sad paper courtesanThey found him just a man."

I got my copy in the mail this afternoon. And, so, the journey begins.

Do I pay them or do they pay me? Happy New Year!

Have a cup on the house. HERE

This is a bit off on a tangent, not really parallel, but it will illustrate the significance of isolation. The Family

Merry Christmas, Roy.

Waysider: "The canon does not reflect the chronology of when the various books were written." teachmevp: "But they do indeed." uhhmmm.......No, the Gospels were written quite some time after the life of Jesus and after the writing of the Epistles.

Rather than continue on a discourse about dispensations, let it at least be noted that the Gospels were written AFTER the Epistles.

The whole "to you/for you" thing is contrived. The cannon does not reflect the chronology of when the various books were written.

Some of the people on this thread or mentioned on this thread have passed away.

Cremation is less expensive if that makes a difference

Nope. Not an effort to be PC on my part. Anyone who knows me in real life knows I don't give a rat's azz about being PC.(Nor did I reference any connection to genetics.) Through the years I have had many friends and coworkers that are either homosexual or transgender. I can assure you they did not all live the same "lifestyle". Ask yourself the question, "What is the heterosexual lifestyle?" There is no answer. Some live a sports centered lifestyle. Some live a music centered lifestyle. Some live a technology centered lifestyle and on and on and on. If someone is heterosexual, it simply means that their sexual attraction is directed at the opposite sex. If they are homosexual, their sexual attraction is directed toward the same sex. People aren't cured of their attraction. They just learn how to repress and deny it. (Think celibacy.) Don't even throw the old devil possession schtick in the mix. We'll be here forever with that one.

Just a side note: The reason some people might find it offensive is because it's not a "lifestyle" any more than being heterosexual is a lifestyle. It's just one element of the individual's whole makeup. If we said a person lives a heterosexual lifestyle, what would that even really mean? Not all heterosexuals live the same lifestyle nor do all homosexuals live the same lifestyle. This is not directed at any one person. I'm only pointing it out because using it in this manner can cause the listener to disengage. Well, at least that's been my experience.

Well, Rainbow Bridge is for animals, soooo.....Yep. Rainbow Bridge it is.

I don't think Sky ever implied that the problems at HQ were limited to these three categories alone.
