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.

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.

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

"So when can we expect your application?"

What a funny Monkey!!!!!

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

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

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)

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

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!

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).
