That's good. Consistency is a good thing.

I'm thinking not all the time. It wasn't too long ago that his ungentlemaness resulted in him taking a vacation.

Just though you might like to hear me say that.

Point taken.....And you know....I am Acts 2:38 to my core....It was a figure of speech. While they do not have full truth...they do offer a message that is appealing to lost mankind.

Intersting to note that you put acts 2:38 and Holiness intertwinded.
Would you define holiness for us...or at least me...
YOU are my friend of that we are clear...just curious!

I'm finding out that there are evidently a LOT of "our" people who don't believe you HAVE to obey Acts 2:38 to be saved.
That's sad.

Sinners dont listen to Christian radio...IF we are going to be effective, get on a hard rock/country music station.

As conservative as I am, and believe every minute of it and love it, that very mentality you just described really gets under my skin. That way of thinking sucks the joy and life out of people. No no no no, don't don't don't don't, stop stop stop... Why don't we just teach the Word of God and let God lead people.... do we know how to lead people better than God??? I got to where I didn't want anyone to come and visit my church because that is what we heard about.. the outward. When I had a chance to witness and when people asked me where they should go to church, I sent them down to another oneness church, who maybe wore short sleeves but they had the love of God in their heart and showed compassion on people...........

I appreciate this post very very much.
Let me say this the modern church is not winning a lost world...but they are REACHING it.

AND THIS is why I pray to God TV will not be killed by this mentality and those with this mentality.
