    Oh how I miss RC! There is no one like him! He can speak to a prince or a pauper! He spoke the truth & brought me to the real Christ of the Bible!

    RC Sproul was a Calvinist who also believed in the false Amillenialism doctrine. You Sproul idolaters have been deceived.

    Your looking at the external and not at the Eternal. People who think they are saved think this way. People who are saved run to the SAVIOR.

    The Dash Poem I read of a man who stood to speak At the funeral of a friend. He referred to the dates on her tombstone From the beginning to the end. He noted that first came the date of her birth And spoke of the following date with tears, But he said what mattered most of all Was the dash between those years. For that dash represents all the time That she spent alive on earth And now only those who loved her Know what that little line is worth. For it matters not, how much we own, The cars, the house, the cash, What matters is how we live and love And how we spend our dash. So think about this long and hard; Are there things you’d like to change? For you never know how much time is left That can still be rearranged. If we could just slow down enough To consider what’s true and real And always try to understand The way other people feel. And be less quick to anger And show appreciation more And love the people in our lives Like we’ve never loved before. If we treat each other with respect And more often wear a smile, Remembering that this special dash Might only last a little while. So when your eulogy is being read With your life’s actions to rehash Would you be proud of the things they say About how you spent your dash? ~Linda Ellis~

    are anyone else getting a loud static like an old radio? It’s making me hard to concentrate and all he’s saying. I just listened to one of his later sermon and it wasn’t there, it’ was very clear. Maybe that old tape needs some new tech assistance. It’s getting quiet.
