No not kidding.

I have served the Lord for over 31 years and I love Him. Jesus said if you love me you will keep my commandments. His Word is not grieveous to me. I want my Lord to be satisfied with me. I want my life to be what He'd have it be.

2.Wedding rings are said to be round as the marriage and union is said to be eternal.This is untrue because truthfully the marriage vows end at death
or in our day at divorce which make it shamefully sad so I think.
3.The wearing of gold has always been associated with divinity.

I will post more later.I have a life and its sunny Saturday in Florida.

Thank for this post, it's good stuff.

There are some obvious inconsistances in Pentecost. I know of a Pastor's wife who goes to Vegas on shopping sprees. it's nothing to spend $10,000 on fine clothing but would condemn anyone else for wearing a simple Band. Now, as I said, I wouldn't wear one and I don't wear a watch they irritate me, but doesn't the bible talk about "COSTLY Array" in the same scripture ?????

They are either a silver color, they are not silver or black. My belt usually cost about 8 to 10 dollars so the buckle is not a precious metal.
