    You are right..Bagpipes do arouse strong emotions. The whole outfit and the bagpipes thing makes me proud to be Scottish. There is no one in the world who has a national costume like us. The folk music is pretty good as well. The Corries are worth listening to. Blessings ALWAYS, Kevin.

    Thank you for your message and the rep. I love your video! You are right about the flesh. I wish I could not sin myself, but we live in this body of flesh.

    We know that one day, we will be like Him, and we WILL see Him. Life on earth is choir practice for heaven, and preparation time for meeting the Lord!

    The Lord's glorious Blessings to you and your family.
    In Christ, Kevin :-)

    Hey Susan, I love the music of Fernando Ortega. Brandan sent me "Come Thou Fount" once and that is what introduced me to him. Some of his songs may have some Arminian theology in them, but I just interject my own thoughts and praise the Lord in the singing and the listening of them. How He loves us, the elect, the children! Amen!

    I've spent years and years in the medical field......just as the wife of the patient though We came across many dr. who thought they were the ones who healed, they had all the answers and didn't know that God the Creator has given all the wonderful technology that helps them to diagnose like the CT Scan does. My hubby has had many of those and I'm still always amazed that they can pin point the problem, especially in the brain.

    I'll pray for you in your new space and your new responsibilities!

    Hi Susan--Just wanted to tell you that I'm glad you're here on the forum. I truly enjoy reading what you have to say, and it's nice to have another sister here who cares about finding truth. :-)

    I'm probably not good at explaining the how to either. I just tried it myself and if you go to the thread and click on the link that Highlyfavored (Greg) has provided it will bring up all the podcasts. Click on the one you want to listen to and watch at the bottom as the line moves, it takes several minutes to get to the end and then click on start and then you should be able to hear it. If that fails you might want to ask Brandan. Hope it works!

    Hi Susan, No you don't need any software or any extras to download the podcasts. You know you could actually try it now as they are up on the news/announcement thread. Bring that up and click on the link and then the actual podcast. It takes a bit to get started. I've found the headsets really help in focusing the voices, much easier than just the speakers. Try it and see if it works, ok? BTW, nice colors

    Nice to see another Michigander on the boards! I miss Bellaire in the summer, but not the winter! Hope you're having a nice one; it is very hot and dry in Austin this year. Yeah, Carm is a trip at times; I usually get banned about once a month (unless I stop posting daily). I have been purposefully staying away for two or three days at a time so I don't get too bogged down with the blindness found there. I'm fully convinced that what passes for American Churchianity is the largest mission field in the world!

    Remembering Heckle and Jeckle kind of dates me now, doesn't it? Ha ha. Hope that you can make it to the conference tomorrow night (at least I think there is still a conference going on). 8:00 central time in the conference center, they have been really good. See you there, Lord willing!

Biography
My Home page in contact info, isn't actually mine, but a friend of mine who makes a work of art out of photographs....thought I'd share :)

Brought up Seventh day Adventist, was a Mormon for a few years, then into the occult/white magic. God rescued me in 1988. I was baptised by immersion in October 1988 into the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Since then reading the scriptures, the words and direction have come alive in my heart and thoughts, and the grace generously given to me abounds :-)

As a young girl playing tops with my older cousins in Holland, one of my cousins didn't want to play with me and my make-shift top (made out of an empty spool of thread with a nail spiked through it, lol) against their fancy store-purchased and "authentic" tops...so they said let's let her play for "spek 'n bonen" Dutch: translated: bacon and beans, which means "her actions don't count"...

********************

Reminder to me:

Keep one thing forever in view, the truth, and if you do this, though it may seem to lead you away from the opinions of men, it will assuredly conduct you to the throne of God.

--Horace Mann (1796-1859)

Dead faith is only possible if you are not ALIVE in Christ!

“Do as you are bid; feed the sheep, feed the lambs; the goats will never believe the gospel,
though they may believe your doctrine.”
William Huntington

Augustus Toplady (1740-1778) was John Wesley's chief opponent
