Actually...You forgot "evil" sweethearts. Actually, Joe is a bible reading sweet lil' soul and I even help him with passages that are beyond him. Two years of Seminary made me quite a scholar, and six years being a Charismatic made me a musician with quite a collection of hymnals. How's that for ironic.lotta joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12742978845913126675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2481053445293173582.post-48565523815370165102015-08-09T23:03:21.447-04:002015-08-09T23:03:21.447-04:00You guys are such sweethearts.You guys are such sweethearts.Ed Bonderenkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03724552853113809036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2481053445293173582.post-43529106500954345812015-08-09T22:28:26.350-04:002015-08-09T22:28:26.350-04:00We happily ushered two missionaries into our home ...We happily ushered two missionaries into our home and practically adopted them. They found themselves well fed at our home and groceries anonymously delivered to their modest apartment and left at their door. When it rained, Joe used his truck to haul their bicycles and would wait outside as they visited homes.<br /><br />Their christian church members, assured god would attend their needs, would have been in fits of disdain to realize their missionaries had been taken under the wing of a evil and 'bound for hell' atheist. You've gotta admit, it IS funny when you think about it.lotta joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12742978845913126675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2481053445293173582.post-86860964348155148752015-08-09T17:44:16.919-04:002015-08-09T17:44:16.919-04:00I like that, Paul.

Billy Graham said about the baptism of the Spirit, which the Book of Acts makes clear can be (but isn't always) something separate from the initial conversion.<br /><br />He said, "You get all the Holy Spirit there is when you're saved. The question is, how much of you did <i>He</i> get?"Rev. Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04588179227576383679noreply@blogger.com
