Pastor Poster's Stupid Question Thread

[Nahum]

Okay, here's the dealio, Coolio.

We talk about being separate from the world a lot. I agree with the basic principle though I often disagree with our applications of it.

Does it violate the principle of separation when missionaries go into foreign countries where satanism, and witch doctors, and half-naked people live? What about when the population is infested with idolatry?

Wouldn't being separate require complete removal from these circumstances so that they won't fall prey to false doctrine and worldliness?

Just a little question.

[freeatlast]

No ..next question.

[Nahum]

No ..next question.

Thats all, just no? I'm disappointed. :killinme

[freeatlast]

Change their God. We can't even get our people to change their culture.

Joh 17:1 These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee:
Joh 17:2 As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him.
Joh 17:3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.
Joh 17:4 I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.
Joh 17:5 And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.
Joh 17:6 I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word.
Joh 17:7 Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of thee.
Joh 17:8 For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me.
Joh 17:9 I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine.
Joh 17:10 And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them.
Joh 17:11 And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are.
Joh 17:12 While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the Scripture might be fulfilled.
Joh 17:13 And now come I to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves.
Joh 17:14 I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
Joh 17:15 I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.
Joh 17:16 They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
Joh 17:17 Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.
Joh 17:18 As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world.
Joh 17:19 And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth.
Joh 17:20 Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word;
Joh 17:21 That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.
Joh 17:22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one:
Joh 17:23 I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.
Joh 17:24 Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.
Joh 17:25 O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me.
Joh 17:26 And I have declared unto them thy name, and will declare it: that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them.

Pretty self explanatory.

Hey, gotta watch the budget. Was in Jackson, MS this weekend. The Rogue was having their semi-annual clearance sale. Got a sweet deal on a couple of things that I would never be able to touch any other time or place.

BTW, the tailor from Hong Kong is the absolute best on dress shirts. As long as you buy 6 of them they are only $30.00 each. Tailor made. Can't beat it.

Hey, a business savvy lady! Quite a racket you've got going there.

I know a deal when I see one. I frequently shop in the clearance sections and write down the deals going on. I then look on Ebay to see what they are selling for and to see if there are bidders. If so, I buy the items and list them.

LR and I did this with Hydroxycut diet pills. We made about $500, buying each bottle for $2.50 and selling them in lots of three for about $25.00.

I'm going to be selling clothes on Ebay pretty soon. I buy only name brand clothing from Goodwill and as I grow out of them, I'm going to sell them. I won't make a bundle but I'll get my money back and a little extra.

The Apostles went into those situations. If separation really meant that then we need to build a mega compound with armed guards and do no evangelizing.

In fact Jesus said 'as you have sent me into the world, so have I sent them into the world"
