God bless you, Sis Falla, for the good word. Polls and statistics, I suppose, are good and useful tools, but they speak nothing of the inner workings of the heart that has been with the Lord. Polls speak of what people claim- what "family they belone to in the grand scheme of things. But those who walk with the Lord are marked by the good they do in this world. Jesus proved Who He was on earth by the good He did for others and by the Life He lived, and gave up for the fallen human race. The disciples, ignorant and unlearned, had the proof they had been with Jesus. May we not trust polls and statistics to validate our spirituality- may we trust the One who never fails!

Thank you, Brothers, Man of Word, Lost and Found, and OneAccord:

In the mouth of two or three witnesses, let every word be established!!

Blessings,

Thank you, Sister,

It has been said that the "saving of a soul is the miracle of the moment,

but the making of a saint is the work of a lifetime".

Not exactly.

Within less than a generation after Pentecost, in Acts 17:6, we see the unbelievers in Thessalonica speaking about the believers in Christ saying: "These that have turned the world upside down have come here also".

Thank you, Bro. Sam, for your response. I am SO thankful for my

heritage. I do not take it for granted. As a result of what began

back in those days, my husband and I, who both received the Holy

Ghost in 1958, (1/2 century ago) are able to attend church each week

with the majority of our adult children and their families. Being together

in the house of God means so much. One son and his family goes to

an apostolic church a few miles away but we see them often. God is

so good.

Blessings,

Falla39
