Just as people justify not wearing a covering, so too do they justify wearing pants, friends. We know these words are true because whatever we do to be holy must make us peculiar and not like the rest of the world. Are you peculiar, my friend? Electricity makes us not separate from the world systems and so do cars. Repent, my friends before it is too late.
I know you are happy I finally posted. The admin has had a conspiracy to keep me from posting on here and I have had much trouble with my account. Jesus said in the world you would have trouble. It is what we have come to expect.

I am sorry that you have so much trouble with your Internet accounts and in particular your AFF account, Emma. The fact that you persist in posting even when the letters don't appear on your darkened computer screen is a testament to your determination that I think we could all learn from.
Please keep up your posting. The fact that anything gets through at all is a marvel to the wonders of life and the quirky fabric of our universe.

I have had terrible trouble. Now, my avatar has also disappeared. I think admin does not want anyone to appear to be holier by covering. Only people who have uncut hair and people who have cut hair and no coverings are allowed avatars on here. Yes, in the world, we will indeed have trouble. Yes, it is what we have come to expect from wordly, english people.

It is absolutely NOT a joke!! I have seen ILG's posts and she has an avatar and can post immediately while mine have to be approved by a moderator first! Why else would this be the case except that the admin has a conspiracy against ultra-conservatives? First, I could not post and then my posts have had to be approved and now my avatar is gone. Yes, it is what we have come to expect. In this world we will have trouble and they will persecute the righteous. Perhaps it is God's way of showing me that I should not communicate with such worldy people. I even wrote to an admin who did not respond. Perhaps I should not waste my time on frivilous pursuits as this. Jesus did not need a computer to proclaim the truth and neither should we.

To set the record straight I not advocating this, just read it somewhere and throwing it out for discussion purposes.
