Joe_in_RP Posted April 11, 2009 Posted April 11, 2009 Islam has a huge number of adherents. They are very similar to us (SHHH). They are sincere and dedicated. Its not a big jump for them to convert from Islam to our form of Christianity. There are some very small in the USA programs but not much is being done. I don't think the leadership has any interest.

Woody Posted April 11, 2009 Author Posted April 11, 2009 Sounds normal Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.
Woody Posted April 11, 2009 Author Posted April 11, 2009 Sounds normal AMEN Brother Redwood. But personally .... I see very little of that in my conference. Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.
Joe_in_RP Posted April 11, 2009 Posted April 11, 2009 George Knight is great. I love his writing. The problem with the Muslims is legalism, so they do need special care. Quote
Members phkrause Posted April 11, 2009 Members Posted April 11, 2009 Joe when you say office, what do you mean? pk Quote phkrause When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan. Proverbs 29;2
Woody Posted April 11, 2009 Author Posted April 11, 2009 George Knight is great. I love his writing. The problem with the Muslims is legalism, so they do need special care. Yes. From my understanding .. they have to earn their virgins. Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.

Joe_in_RP Posted April 11, 2009 Posted April 11, 2009 I mean I want no job in the USA local church. Not elder, Per Min or anything. I would rather pursue my own lay ministry. The results are higher. I can go into the inner city and work because I don't care that there is no tithe base there. I can work without someone trying to control me. Quote
Joe_in_RP Posted April 11, 2009 Posted April 11, 2009 The vast majority of members in the Detroit suburban churches want nothing to do with Detroit. While it is true its a burned out shell, its a gold mine for soul winning. Quote
Woody Posted April 11, 2009 Author Posted April 11, 2009 Does anyone oppose your work there? Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.
Joe_in_RP Posted April 11, 2009 Posted April 11, 2009 No, many of the local church members think I am a kook because of my views on the new world order but they don't oppose me. I do need to change my ways on that. I am reading a book on the 1888 movement and the comments by EGW. She says our churches were preaching legalism. When we switched to Jesus things got better. I have known that for a while. I just did not know how to switch. Quote
Woody Posted April 11, 2009 Author Posted April 11, 2009 Talking about being transparent and open. Appreciate you sincere comments Joe. This place needs to be a place where we can come and support each other in our struggles without being jumped on. I hope we can support you in what you do and need to do.

Joe_in_RP Posted April 11, 2009 Posted April 11, 2009 I'll tell you this NWO thing has caused me to search for an understanding of the pioneers and their ways. Its been very enlightening. I want to learn how they were preparing to meet Jesus. I also see things in the church have changed enormously since then. Quote
