  1. You eat snacks at the meetings? You chew gum at the meetings? Just curious.
  2. What happens if you play country music backwards? You get your wife back, your truck back and your dog back. 🙃
  3. This clarification was said to be made to promote the unity of our brotherhood. This might seem to be counterintuitive, saying that the more Christian freedom we have, the more united we are. I suppose it's in the sense that this new-found freedom will contribute to less disagreements and arguments in these, what are now grey areas. It just goes to show, once again, that unity doesn't always mean uniformity.
  4. That would mean that he is now 75 or 76, not 78 as brother Hess mentioned above. Clarification?
  5. So, for those of us who still use the sterling system, that would be 41 degrees Fahrenheit.
  6. Insight on the Scriptures, Volume 1 p. 598, Second Death Rev. 20:6, 2:10, 11
  7. If that's what you had for "lunch," I'd hate to see what you had for dinner!
  8. Yes, and how does that attitude fit in with what Jesus said: "Now a man said to him: “Lord, are those being saved few?” He said to them: “Exert yourselves vigorously to get in through the narrow door,+ because many, I tell you, will seek to get in but will not be able." --- Luke 13:23,24 Study note: Because the background of this expression is connected with competition in the athletic games, some have suggested that the effort Jesus encouraged may be compared to an athlete’s exerting himself vigorously with all his power to win the prize, straining every nerve, as it were.
  9. That's more like an enigma, disguised as a paradox, wrapped in a conundrum.
  10. I was amazed they didn't mention that he is a Witness and that the surgery was performed without the use of blood, which in itself is quite remarkable!
  11. Tolerance is one thing, but acceptance is another. When it comes to the LGBTQ demographic we are tolerant, which means we show kindness and respect, but we don't accede acceptance, which means we don't condone or approve their lifestyle or immoral conduct. Others may cave in and compromise on this issue, but we don't. How could we? 1Cor. 6:9.
  12. Because you're fairly new here. I posted this video on June 5, 2018, almost seven years ago!
