  1. Tex Ritter?? Wow, now that's a name that I haven't heard in a very long time. Wow. Merry Christmas Waysider.
  2. Well today is Saturday, 12/22/2012 and I slept in until 10 a.m. ya know...too tired from dodging the chunks of sky falling all over. :biglaugh:/>
  3. Following the Lord Jesus Christ often takes us down roads that we never planned to go, much less actually finding ourselves on them. Could be why the Lord Jesus is our Shepherd, who is leading us through the wilderness to the Promised Land.
  4. The reality of having the Lord Jesus Christ in your life and thus His teachings being manifested in your life is what constitutes you as a true member of the Church. As I said before, though a group of people may meet in a building with a steeple or even in the home, if they are not His Disciple, then they are none of His in all reality. "Though I give my body to be burned..." Same idea. One can go through the show and still not be the real McCoy.
  5. So sorry to see GSC close.

  6. Wow, I've been busy with so much for so long and I just get back to find that GSC is closing down. I just wanted to say Thank you as well for all of the wonderful people that I have met out here as well. For anyone interested, here is my email that I can be reached at: newcovenantchristian@gmail.com Also I am at Facebook as: JANICE ROBINSON Feel free to add me as your friend and I will add you as well. I feel no need to hide my real name. Geisha...I hope you look me up on Facebook...I so enjoyed your posts. There are so many others as well, I could go on and on.
  7. The Apostle Paul made it clear that we have been grafted into the root stock of Israel. Personally, I'm glad....for all of Israel shall be saved. Amen.
  8. Where two or three are gathered....there I will be in their midst. Church does not have to be in a building with a steeple, it's just that people started going to such and it became known as the church of the Lord Jesus Christ.Most of us out here came out of TWI and know the abuses that went on there. Certainly there are churches that are also abusive as well...just listen to the Holy Spirit as leads you and you will find the place where you belong. No one is an island.
  9. Just thinking about the title, "Indelible Image" and I'm wondering if it is a discussion of "Imago Dei"? Let us know what you read when you get the book. I've perused some of his commentaries.
  10. My mother also learned to HATE OATMEAL. She always said it was served every morning without fail. Of course, conserving sugar and butter, so had to eat it plain. Also, she wouldn't eat yogurt either. Back then they didn't call it the fancy name of yogurt, but exactly what it was, i.e. clabbered milk. My mother grew up in a frugal lifestyle and she transmitted those values to me. I still can my own food and dry others. One story that was always told was that of course being the great depression, traveling salesmen would come around a lot. One time my grandfather (BeeKeeper) who only had broken English told the young man that if he could stand to have a bee put on his tongue for one minute, my grandfather would buy something from him. He told him too that he would also put one on his tongue too to show the young man that it could be done. Well of course, my grandfather put a drone (non-stinging) on his own tongue and put a worker bee on the salesman's tongue...well...you know what happened...and my grandfather didn't have to buy anything because he won the bet. Another one we heard growing up was that my grandmother used to put a penny in the electric meter and almost got caught one day when the electric company was coming to read the meter. But I'm thankful that I have learned to "waste not, want not!" During these tough times, it's been paying off even if its not at the level of the great depression.
  11. You're so cute, Garth O yea thats it! Nnnoooooo....that's not my book....but I wish I had their millions, though.
  12. Updated my web site and finding out just how cool html coding can be. Also, web traffic is up since I'm now using Google adwords for my Greek class and I'm going to try it out for my book too. This is really getting to be fun.
  13. Launching my new book

  14. Yeah, thank you....thank you very much! I'll be getting it out to you as soon as possible. We're finally getting snow and ice! Do let me know when you receive it, okay? Well, I guess you'll have to buy a copy hot off the presses in order to find out. One thing I think I can promise you is that it is filled with "Rational Logic" and it won't be a "Wandering copy of Cyber UU GYPPIE" Hey Polar Bear Click on Post #4 link above and it will take you to my website....click on BOOKSTORE and then page down to you see the title. Blessings.
  15. Ahhh, but he will stand for his actions before the Throne of the Ancient of Days. You might be able to fool yourself and others, but no one will be able to hide their works from the Lord Yahshua, will they?
  16. I just uploaded the cover pic today. Also, to read a brief description about it, go to http://www.newcovenantchristianministries.org click on BOOKSTORE, arrow down to you find it. I'm working on transferring these descriptions over to the bookstore proper. But like all things, my web site is a work in progress, always needs to be "improved. "
  17. Homosexuality is usally derived rom iniquity from the foreparents. But it is still the choise of the person to choose to sin in this manner, it is not inevitable that a person with this iniquity will absolutely sin. You're right, it is their choise to sin and doesn't belong to anyone else.
  18. Well,.....my book The Holy, The Common and The Despised is finally done and on the market. http://www.newcovenantchristianministries.org/bookstore Click on CATALOG and then click the picture of the BOOKS!
  19. Sounds like you've been tempted and tried, dearest Bro! LOL What is even more amusing is the ad at the bottom of your post: Namely, "quality Islamic clothing" What a hoot!
  20. Sounds like your former pastor needs prayer for healing of his faith in the Lord's greatness to heal even today.
  21. Could I learn something from Piper, McArthur, Driscoll, Calvin Himself? Maybe. But I don't think I will ever read any of those guys when I so strongly disagree with some of the doctrines which they clutch firmly in their right fist and will never loosen their grip: Election of the few, limited atonement, God is a God of hate, not love (yes, Driscoll said that)and women are inferior subhumans placed on earth to be the servants of men. Nope. Wouldn't want to waste my time. WG Please don't! This is why MacArthur scares the hell right out of me. His view of women. This is also what the Mormons believe as well. That women cannot get into heaven unless their husband points at them at the judgement seat and proclaims that she was a good wife. Just another way to subject women and keep them walking three paces behind the man. I then think of the Lord Jesus who lovingly told Mary to sit right down with the men (probably right next to his knee) and learn right along with the men. How this must have shocked the men in that group that the Lord Jesus was allowing a woman to sit at his feet as a true disciple. I stand in awe of a man who was a true MAN. Hi Jeff, This is because in Corinth, they had a faction of SUPER-APOSTLES, of which they did not accept Paul.
  22. The Lord Jesus was very clear on this matter Geisha...He said that if anyone TRULY followed HIM, they would also be persecuted, suffer in various ways. The servant is not above their Master. So when we are suffering due to our stand upon the Word of God, we shouldn't be surprised. As far as to the Apostles being beaten and God not liking them.....having myself been going through harrowing times regarding my stand upon the Word of God...I'm looking at the whole situation a lot differently these days. I think now it is to God's Glory when you suffer because of your belief on Him and you refuse to recant your faith or your stance no matter hard they are pounding on you to run you off (unfortunately, a lot of this has been coming from self-proclaimed Christians) because you don't harbor the same beliefs as them. But isn't this what Jesus was persecuted for? The upper Jews persecuted him because they viewed Jesus as someone who was departing from the traditional teachings, even though He was correcting their doctrines. Which they hated Him for because He was showing the error of their ways before all people.
  23. The only thing that are to be PREDESTINED to is to be CONFORMED TO THE IMAGE OF HIS SON! Sproul is very well educated and yess......MacArthur scares me as well, but probably for different reasons than you.
