Never heard of it. What is it? Can I get on board?
I have my pen ready, Timmy, you can sign as part of my team!!
Yep, did Melaleuca. Never made much money, but they did have good products. Just hated that minimum monthly requirement. Maybe most people spend $40 a month on that kind of stuff, but we don't.

Dang it, I'm trying to get my multi-level marketing thread started and we're talking it here!!
I tried it for a while. That's the only one. The guy that asked me......TOLD ME......I couldn't really tell him "no." T36-C-7, I think it was. Maybe I need to go buy my own Jeep Cherokee.
Timmy, I liked your original discussion. Is it plausible to you that a lot of personal opinion is contained in the NT? And do you have an opinion on Ananias and Sapphira? Do you believe the story of them and if not, why do you think it's there?

Not just plausible. Very likely.

It may have happened something like it is described. Maybe they really dropped dead, and Peter capitalized on it, or maybe the story was entirely made up, I don't know. Either way, it is very contradictory to scriptures about God's grace and love, among others. (Though it is consistent with some others that talk about God's vengeance and so on.)
Here we have a brand new movement/religion. The leadership (Peter et al) wants to establish its authority, and wants to keep the troops in line. What better way than to spread fear throughout the church? That's what it says happened, BTW. I didn't make that up! Great fear, it says. Twice!
This tradition is alive and well, today. One of my former pastors talked about someone at his previous church who gave him a hard time, and (after a pause for dramatic effect) he died. There's a thread here on AFF about how God might kill you if you mock Him: http://www.apostolicfriendsforum.com...ad.php?t=11167

What was the story in that thread that you were trying to get? Both the poster you appear to have been talking to and his/her posts seem to have been cut out. See post #7 in that thread.
