People that demean others with a false attitude of sweetness to try to cover their true spirit. Gossiper's, if you listen to it and are not careful it can get into your spirit and make you feel so bad.

I don't like pretense, or someone being false!
I also don't like politics being played both in the Church or out.

In other words--"BE REAL!"

Not, not a matter of fellowship but a matter of the heart.

Odd, huh?

But, hey, I thought I was the only person alive with the whole 'nothing on the Bible' thing'!
Ditto on this one!

I'm right there with you on this one. all personal pronouns relating to God are always to be capitalized.

On the bible thing, if I am teaching from some particular book, I will keep that with my bible, and if it is smaller, I will leave it on top of the Bible, but that is it. I dont want anything else on my bible.

I wouldn't disfellowship anybody over it. I strongly teach my young ministers to respect it to the point that if I see something on their Bible they 'know' my displeasure.

Does this mean you don't put anything on top of your monitor or PC case if you have an electronic bible installed?

Did you know that the Jew's, when they write God or Lord, they leave out the "o", unless it is a document that is to be preserved. In other words if they wrote God on just a piece of paper that was to be discarded it would have G_d. or L_rd.

Yes, you're an "odd one" alright but funny thing I also have that little idiosyncrisy. Pertaining to God it is He and pertaining to satan it is never capitalized. A little more of these "revelations" and we could give a psychoanalyst a headache.
