BRO HAYMON!!! Colorado Security Guard' Connection/Apostolic Background!!!
 
http://www.cacdenver.org/

THIS FROM PASTOR HAYMON"S CHURCH WEBSITE!!!!

Greetings, and Praise the Lord!
You’ve probably heard by now of the armed female security guard at the Colorado Springs church who stopped a gunman on a rampage last Sunday. Headlines in every news agency around the country have carried proclamations hailing her as a “Hero” who, “On Assignment from God,” “Stopped Carnage in Colorado” and “Saved Over 100 Lives.” Her name is Jeanne Assam.


Jeanne Assam (AP Photo) If you saw her picture in the news, did she look familiar? Probably so, because she came to CAC for several weeks in 2006. IN FACT, SHE WAS BAPTIZED IN JESUS’ NAME AT OUR CHURCH!

Sam C. Kelly met her at his job downtown. He and his wife, Alison, befriended her, and began introducing the precious gospel of Acts 2:38. She received the revelation of Jesus’ Name baptism, requesting to be baptized between services. She, along with the Kellys and I, met for prayer, and a very joyful, Biblical baptism.

Since then, her job moved her to Colorado Springs, where she’s been attending New Life Church.

Let’s agree together in prayer for the Lord to protect and guide Jeanne in this very demanding time of high-profile media coverage. She’s done a remarkable job of publicly giving God credit for her calmness in the face of danger and her miraculous success in the face of insurmountable odds. Also, let’s pray for the fullness of Holy Ghost salvation to be revealed in and through her. PRAISE GOD FOR ALLOWING CAC TO PLAY A ROLE IN JEANNE ASSAM’S LIFE!!

SoCali,

What is the fullness of Holy Ghost salvation???

CAC and Jesus name baptism were the deciding factors in her heroic act?

Is she 2/3 saved? and who cares?

I am almost embarrassed for them for putting that on their website....as a MAIN PAGE article.

deltaguitar 12-12-2007 03:01 PM

Are they taking credit for something? I mean where are the prayers for the victims and their families.

This whole article looks a little insensitive. Looks like they are trying to capitalize on her new stardom. It is really amazing how us apostolics want to be in the limelight and take credit for something.

BINGO!!!

However, don't broad brush all apostolics in this category. But, all of your other sentences are right on.

I think this is the problem that us apostolics have by being sheltered so much. We don't even stop to think how things we say might be taken by those on the outside of our little group. :koolaid

That too ...

In all this the revelation of the name is tantamout, obviously.

Many OP want to appear mainstream w/o "compromising".

I hope that the UPCI has this guy pull his statement ... like they censored that guy who had the anti-semitic sign during the showing of the Passion.

I don't think they are UPC.

Once again, right on.....but don't use the collective "we." Our church, and countless others, have never been like that.

I will agree that the whole "article" is self-promoting in an incident that was tragic.

The Haymon's are UPC. The Gordon's (at least at the time of the Passion incident) are UPC.

Thad 12-12-2007 03:13 PM

I Personally think you all are being a little hard on the Haymon's.

They are just simply pointing out that she at one time attended their church and was baptized there and probably had a Big spiritual impact on her life which seemed evident in her interviews

Thad...do you really think this? Seriously?

I don't buy it. This was a chance for them to say....HEY DENVER...Guess what...that lady who is being called a hero was once a member of our church. Thank God we were able to witness to her.

And not even one mention of the condolences to the families.

I think it is self-serving and in bad taste. There IS a way to have posted this "article" better that would have left a better taste in people's opinions. The whole tone is self-serving and capitalizing on a bad situation.

Why can't we just rejoice in the fact that she was Baptized in Jesus name and has been given a measure of Truth? I don't see any gloating here

Praise the Lord!!!!!

Now...there is a tone of gloating throughout the "article." It appears she did all of this because CAC had an impact in her life.





(Now, that I disagreed with you, will you still pick me up at the airport on Saturday?! :jolly )

Thad.....as someone who does not agree with the article, I will say that I am not jealous of the fact...and our church would have never printed an article like that.

It is different for people of the church to say....oh man, she attended our church last year. I am sure the pastor's in conversations stated that she used to attend. That is one thing. It is a very different thing to put an article on the front of your website advertising that the Colorado Spings HERO used to attend your church and thanking God that CAC had such an impact on her life.

Yes yes yes, I did go to the Mile High Conference chasing a girl. It didn't work out. She is a great girl, probably the best one out of all of them.
