Members rudywoofs (Pam) Posted April 14, 2007 Members Posted April 14, 2007 could it be... **drum roll** ..... ??? erhmm...perhaps you should get some laxatives just in case whatever is in there happens to be constipating..

Funny, isn't it, how we accept Grace for ourselves and demand justice for others?

Beryl Posted April 15, 2007 Posted April 15, 2007 Stan, if you always took this long to make up your mind to do something, Adventist Forum would just fold up. P-L-E-A-S-E open it. It is going to be a couple of days before I can get to this forum again, and I have to wait that long to know what cushy position you are going to be offered!! Beryl Quote "Grace is God doing for us, in us and through us that which He requires of us but which is impossible for us to do in or for ourselves." But He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." 2 Cor. 12:9.

I am shocked that you felt my comment regarding that envelope is nothing more than hot air. I know that many people think that 3ABn embodies the spirit of Adventism. To me, it is very restrictive in it's creativity, content and embodying the Spirit of the 3 Angels message, and considering the last 5 years, dysfunctional. So, if it is an offer from 3 ABN, I hope that Stan would have the good sense to graciously turn it down. I would rather see an offer of a new department that the GC is offering and asking Stan to lead out in that endevor. So, Stan, I hope that it is a salaried position within the GC. Hmmmm....maybe the current pres is steping down and Stan is being asked to take his place....? Yeah, I know, doesn't work that way....But the kind thoughts are there...

Dr. Shane Posted April 15, 2007 Posted April 15, 2007 Well I don't think it is an invitation to play the drums. Must be all the receipts for the donations Stan has sent them over the years. Back issues of their 3ABN World magazine? The manuscript for upcoming 3ABN cookbook? Maybe it's that paperwork to get the "This week at Club Adventist" emails announced on 3ABN.

Parade Orange Posted April 15, 2007 Posted April 15, 2007 I just read my first answer to the question. Was I that bad? Was I so cynical that I would use slang for a container of cocaine? Was I so upset and depressed and felt that the world was falling in on me that I not only typed my pityfull snarky comment but also had the stones to push the submit button? was I? was I?
