Re: I was lied to tonight,but kept my mouth shut
 

I don't want to sound disrespectful. But I'm wondering what difference does it make whether the car belongs to the church or not? I'm not ok with lying, but sometimes I wonder why it is that we all have this need to impress each other with what we have (which would be the reason he might have lied to you, I'm thinking?)

At our Bible study last night we were discussing the night that the rich kid came to Jesus and asked what he needed to do to be saved. Jesus told him to sell all he had and give it to the needy and then come follow him, but the man went away sad. I wonder if how many of us Christians are very much like that young man, even if we don't want to admit it. Not only do want to impress others with what we have, but we also want to be impressed by what others have.

I think we have a tendency to measure the worth of other people by their possessions instead of measuring their worth by God's yardstick.

Ok, sorry. This is just my soapbox for the day.

Pentecostal divorce ... is when married saints don't co-habitate for long periods of time (separated).

We had one couple, both involved in ministry in their respective churches, who for over 20 plus years (maybe longer) ... lived in seperate regions of the United States.

Also, a lot men, usually, who emigrated from Latin America in our Spanish churches .... would come, work, send money to their families ... but never would send for them ... or the wife ... sometimes for years ... and sometimes never.

We would say among ourselves that they had a "Pentecostal divorce".

Sandra,

I would've asked him if he could stop by Enterprise because you were thinking of renting a car ...

You might have gotten a better gauge if he was lying or not.

Might not be lying to you.............My Dodge Durango was an Enterprise Rental.....Maybe they bought from Enterprise.

I am great friends with the man who is over the transportation at this church, I am going to make a comment on how I love the new car they just got , when I see him tonight. He will tell me:D

Re: I was lied to tonight,but kept my mouth shut
 

Not to worry. Enterprise sells their cars when they hit 40,000 miles.

So they may not have changed the keychain the keys attached to....

Unless he just had no idea...

Either way you deserve the best ride...

you go girl!

Re: I was lied to tonight,but kept my mouth shut
 

Our 2006 Ford Freestar Van used to be an Enterprise Rental. They sold this particular vehicle after 20,000 miles.

Got a great deal.

There was no Enterprise Keychain but there was Enterprise paperwork, brochures etc in the glove box.

But, then again, I didn't buy it directly from Enterprise. I bought it from a micro dealer who, in turn, bought it from Enterprise.

If the driver was anything like me, he probably never noticed the keychain and just did what he was told... pick up that there singer gal from the airport! lol... (but most guys notice things when it comes to vehicles!)

So what difference does it make?
You got the ride, at least you didn't have to walk!! j/k
