Thank God for Heritage Conf in Colorado and Fort Worth where our young people.

We might be "Few" on here but I promise you that the GYD got more than just a "Few" letters and complaints in the mail on this one.
I'm just getting in on this thread but had to stop here: UC's comment is an example of the deception that the "UltraConservatives" and the so-called "conservatives" within our ranks employ. I don't see any "fog machine" at work in those pics, UC.

Why do you exaggerate? It's just part of the deceptive way in which you and your father operate (John 8:44). What would happen if you had to try and make your point - but were limited to only telling the truth? You really wouldn't have much left to say, would you?

I'll say this about our church. I've only been here for 6 months. My pastor has been here for 3 1/2 years. Since that time the church has grown 400%. We've baptized over 100 people in just a few short months. This past Sunday we over 20 visitors. The church right now has at 20 more members (ones that are in church) than it did when I gor here. Please don't take this as bragging because i'm not trying to, i'm just saying we are having great revival.

Our people don't not watch TV because we tell them not to, they do it because they have an understanding that it is bad for them. I feel the same way about every holiness issue. Nothing we preach from behind the pulpit comes without a reason. They don't have holiness becuase their pastor makes them do it, they have it because it's in their heart.

The first post bolded is why it matters to me...it is emphatically stated, "Our people dont......." How many people don't?

Why are you afraid to put a number on it? Is it 400? Is it 200? Is it 100? Is it 500?....

You post as though everyone in your church follows the holiness letter to a tee EVEN in private and on vacation and at unsaved momma's house on thanksgiving day....so how many are there that do this?

That's the first time i've been called the son of the devil on here. I must have stirred you up. Oh well, I expect that from you. From this point on you're on my ignore list. Feel free to respond to any of my post but you will not ever get another response from me. I don't think that the likes of you deserve my respect, my attention, or my time.
