FORK IN HAND – – – IN CASKET ?

A Christian gentleman was well-known and well-respected by all in the community.
He insisted on one request at his funeral, insisted to such an extent that his friends agreed and promised that they would do it.

He wanted a fork in his hand in his open casket as people walked by in the church at the funeral.
Obviously, people noticed and were puzzled and asked questions.

The people responsible for abiding by their friend’s request were standing there to answer for him.

He wanted everybody to know that he was ready to enjoy dessert ! ! !

NOW THAT’S A TESTIMONY !

FROM ‘HAVE AND NOT NEED’ TO ‘NEED AND NOT HAVE’

Guns on racks of pickup trucks in high school parking lots were not needed to stop school shootings.
Or, is it perhaps that because they were there, is why they were not needed.
– – –
+Guns on school campuses—everywhere.
+Shootings on school campuses—nowhere.
– – –
NOW
+Guns on school campuses—where?
+Shootings on school campuses—anywhere.

123456789

I was there.
You probably were too.
Did you notice that moment ?
– – –
45 seconds after 1:23 in the afternoon (or very early morning) of June 7 in 1989.
– – –
And that makes 123456789—once in a century.

SLOW – – – SLOWER – – – . . . ?

I learned some time ago to thank God for slow.

Whenever I say that to people, they get it.
You could easily expound on the obvious, like slow beats the alternative as you get older.*

But just “be thankful for slow” is sufficient food for thought, standing alone.

Then there are days like the first part of this week.
My van quit on the way to look at a job that I needed now.
It took two more days, identifying two problems, fixing two problems, including waiting for parts.
It prompted an addition to the above saying about slow, and people seem to get it as well.

I’m learning to “BE REAL THANKFUL FOR REAL SLOW.”

*Note the reality oxymoron for seniors—HURRY UP.

TRINITY – – – #4

Trinity does not enhance evangelism.

Trinity does not make the gospel message more clear.

Trinity creates something that has to be explained, and explained,*
and . . . , and never understood.

Trinity is like a foreign language—keeps those who invented the language occupied talking—self-perpetuating.

Just how, or who said they have to keep this thing going, when it cannot be shown that it does any good reaching people to come to Jesus, or making disciples of those who do?

After seventeen centuries of pushing trinity with nothing gained, it’s time we drop it and get back to the Bible. Five hundred years someone changed the world with “Sola Scriptura“—Scripture AloneThe Bible Alone. REFORMATION REQUIRED AGAIN (on this website). Now, I don’t get excited about Latin making that carry more weight—Latin just maintains the Roman Catholic exclusive monopoly on theology. The universal use of trinity does exactly the same thing—IT KEEPS PEOPLE OUT OF THEIR BIBLES ! ! ! How so—because they won’t find anything in the Bible to explain it. When have you heard anyone expounding on the trinity, telling where they got their wording from the Bible?

*”explain the trinity”- – – 47 million attempts on the internet alone
plus “books to explain the trinity”- – -77 million, so says the internet
plus sermons and teachings “explaining the trinity” by the millions

Instead of all that unsuccessful effort, you could read every wonderful thing the Bible says about the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit a thousand times over, and be much closer to God.

TRINITY – – – #3

Trinity—why was it invented ?

Trinity does not represent what the Bible actually says about God.

PRAY – – – HOW LONG ?

“I don’t pray long; I don’t have long between praying.”
