It was weird the other day I saw a lady who attends my mom and dad's church and she was wearing pants, and she was trying to hide from me so I would not see she had pants on. I thought that was odd because she knows I do not care what she wears.

Fear....oh mercy....she was afraid you would tell someone ..........

Sis. I went through a similiar situation, and when I went to another church I went only to WORSHIP Him and He did the healing.

my guess is independant. I know quite a few that don't believe in Doctors or dentist.

I went to one church where all the old people had no teeth once.


the pastor didn't allow false teeth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

yes, they was independant

the pastor had a mid wife - the woman had to use her to deliver their babies

I guess I meant every situation is different, it depends on what your circumstance has been, and each of us have different experiences. In my situation, I tried for years to keep my eyes on God, but the one continually standing in the way was living with me. It was a soul destroying situation.

In our situation the Affair preacher left and moved to many different churches. even before he came to our church he had affairs at other churches. It looks like if that keeps happening they could take his licenses away.
