Life is supposed to be fun, we're free from sin now

If we recognized the kindness, beauty and glory of Jesus, we would be smiling at the thought of His love for us, despite our flaws,

We have the opportunity to change the sinners around us into saints!

If life was fun everyone would be in Orlando.

No wonder I'm so joyful- I'm in Tampa, right next door. Certainly couldn't be because of my salvation, nope.

While sin no longer holds power over us, we're still prone to sin and we do sin, which is what I believe you meant to say.

I meant to say what I said. We are free from the law of sin and death. Sure we sin, but so what. If we confess it, we're cleansed. Beats the alternative!

As for the rest of this conversation, we're saying exactly the same thing, just from different points of view. I choose to enjoy my warfare and my assignment. You don't. If you prefer to be baptized in lemon juice, good for you. I'll take new wine.

What's really underlying this whole thing, this whole thread, is the tendency for some Pharisees to find fault with someone who's making a difference and being productive in the Kingdom. It's disgusting and reprehensible. No wonder people dont' cruise the religion threads more often, if this is the type of crap they're going to be exposed to? Why don't you reserve your little judgmental attitudes for yourself and satan? You'll be improved, and he will be toast. You aren't making any difference in the world by criticizing a fellow servant. Criticize yourself.

32. Have hand towels available as a gift with the church's logo as a memory keeper.

LOL. A church needs a logo now?

Apparently logos isn't enough for them.
