I was hoping for some that would demonstrate the importance of the numerical sequence of particular dates.

But... I digress.

LOL...

Really great dates indeed.

I was in Vietnam when 6/6/66 rolled around. I thought I was already in hell...the day before and the day after too. But the Lord comforted me. He was there too.

What is wrong?

That people would actually make them their religious leader.

That's what's wrong.

I sounded the alarm here on this forum, received a strong rebuff from a couple, acknowledged by a couple of others. But by-in-large, it was ignored.

What will it take to wake us up?
Persecution? Tribulation? Hard times?

TOP THINGS THAT CAN AGGRAVATE YOU AT CHURCH

1. People who over-use the tambourine. Everybody isn't meant to beat it. When you don't do it right it is truly aggravating and a nuisance. Keep still and sing like everybody else during the slow songs.

2. People who fake the Spirit. Just because your friend caught it doesn't mean you did, too. If you’re running around the church and you stop out of breath after going only half-way
around, we know you haven't been "touched." SIT DOWN.


3. People who constantly holler something to the pastor all during the message. We don't need a comment from you after every sentence he makes. We know he's "preaching" and we know he's talking to you. SHUT UP so I can hear
him talk to me, too.


4. People who constantly go to the bathroom. Nobody has to use the bathroom four times a service. SIT DOWN.

5. People who can't control their kids. If little Jay-Jay is running all up and down the aisle and going back and forth to the bathroom, then you need to learn not to SPARE THE ROD.

6. People who take "Come As You Are" to a whole new level. I can understand if you’re going through something. But...Since when is it OK for men to wear hats in the church and wear their pants with the fly to their ankles?

7. People who bring food to church. If you brought your little one a
snack and you're eating it and dropping crumbs everywhere, that's a problem. Take that Oreo and the little darling outside.


8. People who come to special church functions and criticize. If you're standing in a corner gossiping about how you could've done a better job at something and you haven't volunteered to help with anything and haven't showed up to any invitations to join
a ministry, I must ask you to SHUT UP.


9. People who obviously show they don't like you. If you don't care for a person too much for whatever reason, at least put up a decent front to look past it and act right in church. Don't act a fool with your evil faces and smart comments.

10. Finally, parents who dress better than their kids. If you come in looking like a model for a fashion show and little Ashley is dragging behind you looking like she belongs on a "Feed the Children" commercial, you're DEAD WRONG. Give your child a "Just For Me” perm, wipe your kid's nose, comb your kid's hair, and buy them something decent to wear. Don't come out of the house looking like a MILLION BUCKS while your kid is looking like a FOOD
STAMP.


And the Church said, "AMEN."

Rhoni,
You should put this on it's own thread. It's great.
