 Re:

No I am not a troll.......Good grief Charlie brown... I love Jesus. He loves me! imagine that..... you might try it his example!

No, nothing against the brother, i donlt know him, the essence of my comment is that Greenock and the people there, were despite ministering to thier own constituents, mostly, completely irrelevent to the city. Some folks wee saved, some good was done, Hallelihah. But mostly.....nothing...... in my opinion....may I have one?

Some good stuff happened in Greenock I hear. Great! 99.99999999% of greenock neither know or care that a 'revival; happened. It's still cold, dark and hopeless over Greenock mate. You judge.



No one has said that what has started in Greenock is by any means complete. I am taken by how impatient folk can be. Like everywhere, there is a work to be done. There are laborers that must come to the harvest. The world in which Christ was born was a dark place. I can't recall anyone walking out of the cave where Jesus likely was resting as a babe and exclaiming- "Well, heres the Messiah, where the results?" It is plain cynical and pessimistic to not leave room for God to work.

 Re: Get a life

It's a literary device! It's called humour. Sprinkled witha little irony.... My American brethren will have to look that one up in the dictionary.

Your thankfullness and praise is lacking the eloquence of your criticism. YOU judge.

I'm pretty calm really. But it is hard for me to take seriously a dialogue in which criticism is articulated with precision and praise is thrown out in pseudo ebonics (ed. and btw I consider my conversation a mix between ebonics and Jed Clampett). But I tend to be more careful when speaking of the things of God.

 Re: I appear not to be alone....

received by private email!
I read your comments on Sermon Index regarding the revival conference. I went to the conference in Lilburn, GA and walked away feeling the same way.

The group was small. There was a sense that the people were trying to force something. They seem to be seeking a greater power instead of humility. Often the charismatic sect is criticized while the Calvinist side display this awkward piety. When in truth God is on the throne and we are in the mercy seat.

I understand completely what you had to say. I believe your words are a warning to the proud on that website. They seem quite ridiculous most of the time. The real church are those whom God has chosen out of the world to live in fellowship with Him in a humble way. No one does good. No one seeks God. Yet, so much argument over foolish things.

I am grateful to be chosen. I think you are too. I have decided to no longer listen or participate in foolishness. Instead, I will know God and enjoy Him. I will pray for the lost and do what I am led to do according to His word.

OK Here is the 'praise quote'

Does that read like the first series of criticisms? Why is there not more care taken in coming off as if you are sincere here?
