Are we getting the drift yet?  

LOL!


Bummer I can`t play either  


How about a thread  using a different novel idea...

something like "THE JOY OF THE LORD IS MY STRENGTH"  

Does  the Greek word [translated] 'followers'—actually mean 'imitate?

"Paul said, 'Be ye followers of me, even as I follow Christ.' And so, in following his example, we follow Christ."

"WHY do people seem always to want to follow a MAN?"  

Rightly dividing the Word of Truth  

mini gods  

Paul was merely a human instrument, NOWHERE does your Bible tell you to RELY on MEN.... Your Bible tells you NOT TO PUT YOUR TRUST IN MEN (Ps. 146:3). And we need to remember—even a apostle or minister of Jesus Christ—a true one whom the living Christ has used or uses—is/was JUST AS HUMAN AS YOU ARE.

To quote H.W. Armstrong, and I agree fully with him:
"Too many people look on apostles or ministers (or might I add priests) as  holy, superhuman, saintly, infallible righteous sort of people who are surely not HUMAN. They seem to think a apostle or minister (or priest) is not like other humans—that he is/was ABOVE SIN!  This can get to be a sort of WORSHIP, of making an apostle or minister,  another god BEFORE the Almighty GOD, That can become IDOLATRY!"

I am not a follower of any MAN—but of CHRIST!

All I see with all the focus on  Paul, and might I add Mary, is that the focus is taken off Christ, it could be I`m amoung the few who see something wrong with that picture.  

Here's one funny about an elderly gentleman I dearly loved. He wrung and plucked a chicken once and mailed it to us

LOL! are you sure he was trying to say he loved you too?  

I don't like the term "following" except as it apply`s to our relationship to Christ.  

ROFL!

sorry i`m sure that was a serious question  
...but if you say the word pluperfect out loud it sounds like your mouth is full of marbles !

I`m with reba, say what

Beautiful!

lol...no problem at all Tibby...I just never heard that expression before  

Holyyyy London!!

Just doesn't have the same ring Pale

LOL but way funnier!

wonder what peeps would think if i walked around saying holeee london  

Christian Commercialism?

Who coined that phrase?

Someone run out of "christian"  phrases so they had to make one up?

"On the front of the shirt, I printed in giant letters HOMOSEXUALITY  IS  A  SIN  Underneath that I put, Choose Life, Repent, Change and God Loves You in various places.
On the back of the shirt I wrote GAY ‘MARRIAGE’ WILL NEVER BE LEGAL IN GOD’S EYES  -  NEVER  EVER        WAKE  UP"

CHEERS!

There was not a single offensive thing to be found in onestarfisher`s story. No "ungodly" act was conveyed with the shirts message, which by the way is TRUTH. Anyone suggesting there is something offensive here is trying to stuff  God into thier little box of of personal beliefs.

I have to wonder what some might have said to this little event that didnt even involve  a shirt?:

Isa 20:2  At the same time spake the LORD by Isaiah the son of Amoz, saying, Go and loose the sackcloth from off thy loins, and put off thy shoe from thy foot. And he did so, walking naked and barefoot.
Isa 20:3  And the LORD said, Like as my servant Isaiah hath walked naked and barefoot three years [for] a sign and wonder upon Egypt and upon Ethiopia;

I wish I had a great big jaw dropping face to put there, to portray what some christians faces would look like!

If God tells me to write something on a shirt, you can be sure I wont be seeking the approval of saints or sinners for having done it.

Some sow the seed, some prefer to stand back and tell them how to sow, who pray tell are WE with all our prim and proper notions of what is acceptable to GOD, to say we dont approve?

LOL! nx`s snorting was funnier than that dumb joke a4c  

Mat 25:36  Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.

I was`nt aware there was such a website, thanks for sharing!

16. What you repeatedly hear you will eventually believe.

 

18. When FATIGUE moves into your life, FAITH move out.
