It is true that sometimes we have projects and they fall through but to raise money for something because the Americans will help on that and not help as good on something else is wrong...I do not like shady deals.

I cringe when I hear people joking about taking things out of the business account and it is not business...guess I hold myself to too strict standands in my personal life... and this has nothing to do with the new fellowship...lol...
What's the difference???

One is a standard based on church by-laws and one is the Truth.

This question is addressed to the sister that I was responding to. I hope she answeres.

BTW, Holiness is not a standard based on church by-laws, unless the by-laws demand true Holiness.

I think the second paragraph explained what she was saying:

Re: What you think about the WPF?

I don´t think I understand the question...I am saying HOLINESS is very important to me BUT if a person cannot be truthful all their outward holiness really means NOTHING. I have seen shady things done by so called missionaries...
I am trying to say OUR LIFE much match our preaching...that is all...nothing more and nothing less...
No one on any forum I write on has to guess about me I have hundreds of pictures on the forums...what you see is what you get! However if I cannot be truthful and honest my dress is NOT enough to save me...

Now did I make myself clear??? ha....

Re: What you think about the WPF?

Nothing I said has to do with the WPF....I am only speaking in general terms.

Re: What you think about the WPF?

I guess I take things to seriously...however doing right is a passion in my life...not a pastime.

Re: What you think about the WPF?

I reread my post I did not mean to sound harsh...just trying to explain what I was trying to express.

Re: What you think about the WPF?

Psalms 24:

3Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in his holy place?

4He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.

5He shall receive the blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.

6This is the generation of them that seek him, that seek thy face, O Jacob. Selah.
