  2. T-Bone said: Grease Spot is not a church – nor is it even a representative cross-section of today's churches – it is not a religious website. Then WTH said: Of course GSC is a church. A church is merely an assemblage of people who are called out for a specific pupose. An assemblage doesn't have to be "religious" in order to be defined as "a church". The Greek word for church is: "ekklessia" meaning "the called-out." People can be called out for various reasons - and GSC certainly has it's reason's for being a called-out assemblage. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I think we're all pretty much aware of how the term"church" was defined in The Way. I might be mistaken, but I believe T-Bone was using the term "church" in a more conventional, universally recognized sense. If he wasn't, I'm sure he will say so.
  3. In the spirit of fairness, I am posting this link which does clearly show that SOWERS is a product of the CFF organization. There is also some rather vague information regarding their fellow laborer program. One of the current members, Nathan, has posted here recently. It does not appear to resemble the old FLO, which was a 24/7 "in residence" program. No matter. I have no intention of participating. Nope. Not for all the millet in ------wherever it is they grow millet. http://www.cffm.org/doc/links.shtml
  4. I'd like to see a statue of a big tongue. (Like the one on that old Stones album cover.) There would be a plaque at its base with the following inscription: Lo shanta shanta bo banta Bananna fana fo fanta Fee fie mo manta---shanta
  5. If you're blue and you don't know where to go to why do you go where fashion sits?
  6. Hey there JL I just read your last post and I think I understand what you are saying.(kinda) The thing is, though, for some people, the venting and getting angry is actually a part of the forgiveness process, not an alternative. You ever boil a tea kettle with one of those whistle things on the spout? It gets hotter and hotter and hotter until, finally, it whistles up a storm and steams to beat the band. So then you take it off the fire and let it start to cool. You can't really skip the part where it whistles even though the noise might drive you bonkers. People need to be allowed to get to the point where they "whistle" freely. Only they can say when they have whistled enough and then remove themselves from the heat. Seeing some of this stuff, such as a clone of the Way Corps revisited, tends to turn the fire back on where the water has already started to cool. I don't know if that makes sense but it's all I've got right now. Peace, Brother waysider
  7. I just want to know if they plan to make their mayo from scratch. Well, that and whether or not there is a truck stop nearby.
  8. Here are the principles listed at the SOWERS web site. http://sowersonline.com/contactus.aspx

    I stand corrected. The harmonica player in my last post is the late Terry Lee McMillan. (The clip is 16 years old) Sorry for the incorrect info. BTW--- That last Chet A. clip was Awesome!
  11. Let's all take our String Along the Way books and turn to "Stranded On The Premises". Straaanded Straaanded---- Come on everybody, sing with me! Cookies?? No problem. Just reach up in the horn of plenty cookie jar. HaHaHaHaHa!! I sure do love ya, Oldies. Yer the best! And now let's dig deep into our pockets and take up a "love offering" for that vintage Indian motorcycle I've been lusting after that would "bless" me so much. Maybe I should just bang my head against the wall. At least I know it'll feel good to quit.
  12. I'd like to see the part of VPW played by Divine. (Yeah, I know he's dead but this is fantasy.) Maybe Howard could be played by Pee Wee H3rman. "He He---He He---I meant to do that"

  14. Well, OK, I know this is a bit of a de-rail but here is Arlo Guthrie singing The Motorcycle Song.
  15. Not sure if I ever mentioned this before but the man was a huckster and a common con man. It's comical, really, comparing him to someone of Biblical stature.
  16. Apples and oranges? More like comparing the Son of God and other Biblical figures to a delusional, amoral, drunken con man who made absolutely no lasting impact on the history of The World aside from those folks who were touched by his so-called "ministry". Comparing "this stuff never happened" to "the act of forgiveness" is the real apples and oranges in this discussion.
  17. I, too, remember hearing that explanation of doulos. (ie; the 7 years, earring, etc.) Doing a very quick check here, I see that duolos does not seem to appear at all in the OT. It is used predominantly in the Gospels. I find myself wondering if, perhaps, that teaching about "free slaves" didn't originate in some of the Orientalisms material. It might be interesting to see if that description is indeed accurate or has any application to the body of Christ in this day and time.
  18. I know it's ELP but I can't recall the title right now.
  19. I think that pretty much says it for me as well.
