You couldnt say enough good things about Brother Jonathan Alvear!

One incredible thing I noticed was that whenever you mention the name "Jonathan Alvear" around ministers from coast to coast border to border the response is always the same ........

'Now THAT'S a Christian!"

Is there a higher praise?

Re: Hurricane Gustav

he has been through a lot. I am glad he is not ACI but that is just my personal feeling.

I believe that one billion percent. I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that the carnal leadership of that horrible group lost nary a chance to deride, demean, demolish, defame, diminish, destroy, (I am running out of D words here...) That wonderful brother who is a true son of God. I am not kidding, if it was the two of us on a crashing plane and only one parachute, there would not be a moments hesitation in my mind about him having it!

(I would only hope he would have the strength to hold on to me as we BOTH plummet to the earth !)

But yeah, the constant hatred of the men who he greatly outshone as to not only preaching ability but as to strength of character was baffling to me!

As was his LONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN NG (you get the message) sufferring with them putting up with the most horrible garbage that some of them could dish out.

He served them with a pure heart and great love and respect. The ACI did not deserve Jonathan Alvear.

Re: Hurricane Gustav

It is now a cat 4 and expected to make a 5.

Beaumont will be notified by 6am if they are going to call for mandatory evaculations. I do NOT want to go through another evaculation.

They have volunteer evacuations going on now.

Until it gets in the gulf we don't really know where it will go. I don't want to make a decision before then. And IF we evacuate we will go to North La.

Esther,
They are predicting Gustav to take a more western turn than what they projected before. I can't understand what happened with the pressure system that has been present pulling it up.

Did you hear anything about that? I can't find the info on the change in the weather.

Lord, we don't need any more rain!!

I've been watching it on the Weather Channel since it came up and it is turning more west. I don't understand that and they haven't commented on it.

Yes, my husbands weather souce has said all along it was going more west.

I turned the weather channel on when I got home.

Interesting enough Hanna is now following right behind Gustav!

Is that a Katrina, Rita repeat???
