Overaged Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 Do these people all take steroids and look like Arnold too? Quote "People [rarely] see...the bright light which is in the clouds..."

Woody Posted March 6, 2012 Author Posted March 6, 2012 I think Arnold was the member that started this program. Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.

Moderators Kevin H Posted March 6, 2012 Moderators Posted March 6, 2012 1. What do they mean by "body building"? are they making a pun put pointing to either a.) Building up their congragation, b.) Building their members spiritually, or c.) Do they mean as we seem to be reading into the quote, that they are having exercises and maybe exercise equipment and weight lifting. 2. What part of our life should Christ not be involved with? Quote

What part of our life should Christ not be involved with? My thoughts too Kevin. When I saw that OP those were my first thoughts and still are. I don't believe it meant body building like most would think! Quote phkrause When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan. Proverbs 29;2
Moderators Kevin H Posted March 6, 2012 Moderators Posted March 6, 2012 I noticed they have 2 times, 7:45 and 9. If it is talking AM it might be exercise, if it is talking PM it sounds like an interesting renameing of the type of service we call Prayermeeting. Quote
Members phkrause Posted March 7, 2012 Members Posted March 7, 2012 Well there is one way to find out! So Woody you are our man, we need you to go and check it out. Quote phkrause When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan. Proverbs 29;2
M. T. Cross Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 If we think of it being the physical type, I don't see why not.... as long as they are doing it using natural supplements Quote
Dr. Rich Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 I am sure they mean 'building the body of Christ'. Paul taught that the body of Christ was the church even tho Jesus never taught this idea. But then who really knows as they may also be working out. I know SDA potlucks do a great job in body building. Quote
Overaged Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 SDA potlucks Is this what you mean? Quote "People [rarely] see...the bright light which is in the clouds..."

Moderators Gerr Posted March 8, 2012 Moderators Posted March 8, 2012 Should churches be involved in Body Building? Of course!!! ‎‎Eph 4:11 And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers, ‎‎12 to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, Quote
