Let's see.

Hockey, television, and John Grisham.

What did I miss?

Oops! Of course, how could I have? Religion!!!

I was blessed by listening to a sermon (via internet) preached by your third cousin, once removed, on the topic "Identity Theft." There's something inspiring about a whole new generation of McPreachers.

This thread has become way too quiet.

Let's try this on for size and fit.

I have been told by two well placed AD ministers (Not kinfolk - well I don't think that they're relatives, but this being NB, I should say that I'm relatively certain that they're not related to me) that, under the present administration, the AD will not license a minister who does not believe the "Water and Spirit" doctrine.

If this is the case, and I believe that they would know what they are talking about, listen closely and you can hear eighty years of AD heritage gurgling down an American drain.

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??
 

I'm just wondering why "THE NO LONGER AFFILIATED" is missing from the Ministerial Statistics page of the recent Forward Magazine.

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??
 

That could be anyone... :toofunny
No idea who you're talking about.

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??
 

This is new?

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??
 

List too long?! :dunno

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??
 

Hey,

I know this speaker!! I heard him preach not long ago and he did an awesome job!!

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??
 

Did you guys know that the Canadian dollar is now stronger than the American dollar?

Who'd a thunk it?

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??
 

I have recently been introduced to Grisham and although I have not been a big fan of that style of writing I am quickly becoming hooked!!

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??
 

I would have to totally agree, he preached 3 awesome messages at Men's Conference. Did anyone see that ball or is it still out of the park!!

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??

It was a while back as well.
I must plan another shopping trip. :cheer:hanky:fireworks

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??
 

When I came of age in the AD there wasn't any requirement that a new minister believe the "Water and Spirit" doctrine. The manual was the benchmark for belief, and it didn't/doesn't require adherence to the W&S view.

If W&S is the only doctrinal position accepted in the AD today, there has been a paradigm shift take place.

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??
 

An excellent tactical move on someone's part.

Why add to the momentum of the WPF schism?

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??
 

By the way - this is old news - the Cdn dollar hit par with the US dollar way back in January!!

At the rate we're going, maybe July? :snowing

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??
 

Down here in the south lands, where people live righteous lives, we have very little snow left. Check it out.

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??
 

Lots of it here and more on the way,we will share our Thursday storm with you,so get your shovel ready!

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??
 

Yes... but our air is fit to breath up here. :)

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??
 

I barbequed out on my deck tonight - the air smelled pretty good to me.

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??
 

Mmmm, sirloin smoke and Irving sludge....sniff sniff!!!

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??
 

Ahhhhh... what we all wish we could have!

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??
 

This is the day the Lord has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it. HOWEVER, I would rejoice even more if the sun would shine and the snow would go away now. :)

I'm housebound most days until Spring arrives and I can take the kids and go for walks. Reaaaally looking foward to Spring!

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??
 

I am happy to report that I have learned that while the AD does allow new ministers to believe the "Water and Spirit" doctrine, it does not require it for membership. :bliss

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??
 

So when can we expect your application?:D And maybe your 2 sources are not that well placed, hmmm???double:D

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??
 

"So when can we expect your application?"

What a funny Monkey!!!!! :toofunny

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??
 

I have been told that Bro. R.D. Foster has suffered a stroke.

Please pray for a speedy and complete recovery for Bro. Foster.

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??
 

There's no good way to answer that question.

If I make a strong statement like, "When Hades places an order for Zambonis," I'm labelled bitter.

If I don't make a strong statement, I'm labelled a pig pen prodigal pining for Father's house.

So I'll say, "When I come to the conclusion that an application would add to my happiness."

The problem I've got is that I am outrageously happy as I am, so, if joining added to my happiness, I'd probably be over the line into sinfully happy, and, if joining made me less happy than I am, I'd be a fool to join. That be my conundrum.

Eureka!

I figured it out.

When I meet a preacher that's happier than I am, I'll ask him for an application.

(I sure hope that if he's not Pentecostal, he's at least Protestant)

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??
 

When did this happen? What a good man, we'll be praying.

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??
 

When did this happen?

He just on Monday taught a seminar to those applying for local licence with the Atlantic District.

He is truly an anointed vessel of God and a real Christian!

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??
 

I'm sorry, but I don't remember any details (Advancing age is wreaking havoc with my ability to recall any thing I heard more than five minutes ago).

Re: Whaaaaaaatt???? What's happening in Canada??
 

Let us know if you hear anything else. (before you forget it, preferably ;) )
