HEY ALL MEMBERS this JUNE 17 is Father's Day==== I hope all you Fathers have a wonderful day dgrimm760

Today I read the story of the announcement of Samson's impending arrival in Judges, and the instruction that his mother was not only to avoid strong drink but she was also to keep away from everything grown on the vine. In contrast to this, Jesus will celebrate in heaven with us by tasting again of the juice of the fruit of the vine. My mind wonders if there is any connection between these things....telling an expectant mother to stay away from grapes, which I would have considered good for pregnant women, and the later symbolism the fruit of the vine assumed.

The LDS Church (Mormon) has donated toilets to a SDA school. See: https://www.modernghana.com/news/858130/lds-charities-bring-relief-to-bosuso-sda-school.html

Yes, it is! "Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth." 2Tim 3:7

NAN the KING JAMES BIBLE says in Chapter 13 verse 7 say not to drink wine and strong drink==== when the bible talks about the fruit of the vine===it means juice not any fermentation i hope this helps dgrimm60

Yes. She considered it to be a great day and she let the people know. The pastor and I have spoken a number of times on the telephone, as this developed. But, we have never met in person. During her baptismal studies, she had told the pastor that she was weird. A few days ago, she informed him that he would find me to be weird also.

For those of you who are interested, the following is a photo of myself, my sister and my wife.
