  2. I'll have to go with In My Life. (Check out cover.)
  3. Have you seen her dressed in blue? See the sky in front of you And her face is like a sail Speck of white so fair and pale Have you seen the lady fairer?
  4. Pack up the babies and grab the old ladies----
  5. (it's a gas.)-------The Rolling Uglies
  6. I feel the same way. I only posted it because I thought maybe you and others might enjoy the photos of 3/4 and 4/5. :)
  7. In her book, Losing The Way, Kristen S. talks about that sensation of awakening. I highly recommend the book for any of you new arrivals. If you are not familiar with it, refer to THIS.
  8. FB pics of FLO 3/4 and FLO 4/5 (Several are missing from these photos, such as Mr. G.---must have been on MANNA duty or something.) http://www.facebook.com/?sk=ff#!/group.php?gid=151630384847945
  9. Reminds me of the plot to one of those old Mickey Rooney/Judy Garland movies. "Hey, kids! Let's put on a stage show in the barn and win the war!"
  10. "I think somebody better put out the big light, cause I can't stand to see you this way. Alison, I know this world is killing you. Oh, Alison, my aim is true ..."
  11. ---and that can be a good thing in snow prone areas where added weight helps with traction.
  12. Now wait a minute! I'm starting to think that maybe we die when we START believing. Yeah. Remember that old song we used to sing? "Believing's the key to Heaven."
  13. Wierwille died because he stopped breathing.
  14. It's just an old country saying. VPP used it to promote his "aw shucks" country boy image.
  15. Oh, he may have slapped a label on it that said "Apple Butter", but, the whole thing was really just a jar of sour pickles.
  16. "What? I mean, pardon? I thought there were no commas." There weren't, but, in PFAL, Wierwille inserted commas to demonstrate private interpretation while, at the same time, promoting his own. (We ceased, saying, "the will of the Lord be done." vs. We ceased saying "the will of the Lord be done.") --------------------------- ------------------------------------- I guess Reuben must have gotten the finest hog farm money could buy.
  17. Well, of course it does. "Change one little comma and the whole Bible would fall to pieces."
  18. Someone with a Way history being pedantic? Who'da thunk? :biglaugh:
  19. Posted 24 June 2010 - 09:09 PM Ahhhhh----The horn of plenty story. I've told it before but I'll tell it again for the newer posters. In the early days of The Way, they used to use standard collection plates like every other church. One evening, they were having a meeting at a funeral home or some similar type of facility. When the time drew near to taking up the collection, it was discovered the plates had been left behind at some other place. "Uncle Harry" (he wasn't MY uncle!) looked around and spotted some floral arrangements in cornucopias. (Or would that be cornucopii?) Anyhow, he took the flowers out and used the horns in lieu of the collection plates. And that's how it got started, according to VP Wierwille.
  20. I have posted on the origin of the horn of plenty. I'm not very good at doing searches, though.
  21. Maybe he was really saying, "We WANT your change," (and folding money,too)
  22. At which the bartender, a fellow named Atlas, simply shrugged.
  23. Goodbye to you my trusted friend, we've known each other since we were nine or ten.
