I claim all 3 of these, because I sometimes doubt that there even is a God, and I often doubt that if there is, it's possible to know anything about Him. Other times I am sure He exists, but feel he is very passive and doesn't really care about the trivial details of our lives.

But there are other days, when I believe He does exist, that He does care and He has some sort of plan.

Whether or not I think He exists, I almost always think of Him as Jesus, which I guess makes me a little tiny percentage oneness
Keep believing Michlow. I love you being on AFF.

We are all, by nature, wrong. The question is who is most right? Or, how wrong are we? A little humbling for sure.

Or do you believe you are 100% correct on all things? Do you?

Is it the Trinity part or the Broadcasting part that damns them?

The christian world is messed up and backwards



Now, now, now! Calm down. We need to love these messed up Christians.

What's new, Prax. I Award you the... Go ahead, put your name on the Trophy.

We will "Mess up" until the old ticker stops ticking. Even those who thought they were righteous; no adultery, paid tithes, prayed, observing the Sabbath and following the Law were called Vipers.

Oh, and let's not forget the Church in Corinth. A little incest along with the gifts.

And Peter, our good friend who had a small slip of the tongue.

Poor old Thomas, that doubter.

Of course we cannot forget Paul; held the coat of man while he was slaughtered by the Religious Right.

I must say, I was under many impressions as a young Christian. One was, the Church is a place where failure is under control. Boy, was I wrong.

Bro Mullings (District Superintendent of California/Nevada) told me once; People are pathetic. He didn't mean it in a bad way, only in the sense of acknowledging the truth.

I think our demise in this area is that we expect too much out of people, failing in the area of mercy. We carry around our bag of rocks, waiting to pounce on those who stumble.

Are you a Californian?? BTW, that quote is one of Bro. Mullings trademarks, except it usually goes like this; "people are pitiful, and we are all people..."
