Hello Everyone,
I have been utilizing tentmaker for several years now, but only now joined the forum. Better late than never from a fellow Oregonian.
Hi and welcome P1.
I think a fair payment to Gary would at least 10 wise posts for every year you utilized TM :-)
Just kidding.
Enjoy.
Welcome! Or should I say glad to finally meet you! ;)
Hey, enjoy, be blessed.
At least some of us more regularly here are specialists in particular branches of those things concerning God and His word. That doesn't mean we agree. I thought what matters so much to me, what God has taught me or given to me, would right away be a blessing to other believers. So far I'm thankful to God for His protection and that I've survived. Unless a gift of the Holy Spirit is in operation, Pastors are particularly hard to gauge ahead of time whether or not something that contradicts their present stance, something new, or somewhat involved will enrage them, even dangerously, or if they'll carry it away as evidence, or if they can even just talk about it, something that is rare. Wondering why so many can't seem to see themselves, when we see these severely agitated states of consciousness in others it should instruct us concerning ourselves. Remember, God looks upon the heart.
