WHAT?!?!?!

So, are you saying that mikelom is NOT actually the daughter of the former president of Congo who will give me 10% for helping him take out of the country the millions of dollars kept by her father in a Nepalese bank account, before the forces which deposed him seize the accounts?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Mikelom! I demand you return to me my credit card information and the blank papers I signed for you! Now! 😠

You shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

It's okay to be cynical in terms of honest doubt, which is intent on rejecting falsehood while remaining objective and teachable in seeking

truth. Basis for this thread is simply one of many principles and insights I have come to understand and assimilate over several decades...

thanks to my pastor's accurate teaching from the original languages of Scripture. This dinosaur has yet to learn how to do copy and paste.

Hardly a country kind of guy, Nordlys. Did graduate with honors from Northeastern University, Boston, MA. Took seven years weekends and nights.

Your comment is seriously appreciated and I thank you for sharing it.

"double harness"... What a wonderful and telling phrase, Muppy, so accurately depicting the fantastic daily possibility of one man and one lady

actually being fulfilled by harmonious rapport. More than one but less than two, easy in the harness without impediments. Will would've agreed.

Nice footwork.

Could the arrogance of unrealistic expectation also apply to a certain grandfather?

Just the unadulterated facts... plain and straight. Sort of difficult for an honest guy to do fancy footwork wearing woolen socks on a coldy

a$$ night. Yes, Andy, the temptation has applied and still does, as much if not more so than to any other age bracket of RHP Members.

I would go as far to say that 99% of what is posted in this forum is not what people really believe, and that it is make believe!

People are not in reality what you perceive them to be here. Look at Shav! One of the kindest and caring of men,.. but hash/- he's full of defilement isn't he? Alas, no! In real life he is indeed not!

Why do my posts appeal to your interest? They lack morale? Indeed the intended affect, because tripe responds to no marinade whatsoever, and this forum is full of tripe and little marinade worth rubbing into the poor ingredients.

So as for my posts and their lack of cleanliness - believe what you infer from them.... they mean nothing in any kind of real picture. Then again, maybe to you they mean a great deal..... I hope not, I really do.... 😲

However, to satisfy your need for knowing, I do indeed practice what I preach.... with real people in a real world - not website creations, names, drug abusers, alcoholics, self professed masters of life and cartoons, but the real physical versions of the latter. Goodness is not for this place.... because goodness is for real life experience, not an electronic transfer of make up where abuse and mishmash are profound and freely abundant to pursue unscorned 🙂

Then again, there are some good "characters" here! 😉

Mike, whatever is happening to you well beyond my ken. As we both know, only purpose of language is to communicate. Speak with me.

God provided both the revelation (through verbal plenary inspiration) and the insights/principles (the teaching ministry) through the third

person of the Trinity (the Holy Spirit, who distributes the gift of pastor-teacher and works through that human agency today as He did with

the human writers of Scripture). Pastor Thieme's is merely a prepared, diligent and faithful servant. He too is totally dependent upon grace.

Question: Maybe you can help me, Andy. Previous post shows 9 edits, even though I made only one spelling correction and, later, added

the phone and website contact information. Wireless access showed 54.0 Mbps and signal strength excellent but the two edits wouldn't take.

Kept trying by clicking 'post' and leaning on the 'enter' key and doing 'repair/refresh' until they took. RHP slow today? What else can I do?



P.S. Strictly for what it's worth... but I've been told Pastor Thieme was an excellent chess player during his younger years. Always found

myself attributing his love of the game to his knowledge of military history and personal military career... "His seminary studies were

interrupted by World War II military service during which he rose to the rank of lieutenant colonel in the United States Army Air Corp."
