By all means, please tell us what they were doing on the Day of Pentecost and in Acts 10 when they spoke in tongues; and which two manifestations of the gift of the Holy Spirit were not operational in the Old Testament and the Gospels; and what is so unique about speaking in tongues.

Well - you've apparently never visited the Baptist churches I've been a part of. Lots of "Amen's", and sometimes it can get pretty close to bapti-costal. :)

Students at George Mason University (GMU) signed a petition early this month asking President Obama to listen in on the "private conversations" of all Fox News employees and their families. http://www.campusreform.org/blog/?ID=4796

I'm not a pastor, but I have studied the topic. I also stayed in a Holiday Inn Express.... :laugh: When you say "can enlighten you on something you're not aware of," what do you mean? For example, I agree with everything you posted. Acts 2 specifically identifies that the languages spoken...

5 point? Or does moderate mean 4 point, or less?

So Evangelist - are you a calvinist?

Methinks you have once again confused arminianism with pelagianism. Let me ask you a very serious question: do you ascribe to the teachings of Calvin, Arminius, or Pelagius?

OH NO! He holds to arminian theology! String him up! Or behead him! Or something, because obviously he can't be a Christian! <sarcasm tag>

DRAT !!!!!! If this had passed, I was gonna go out and get a patent on trees....

Tried it on one of my laptops; but had problems with some peripherals. Ended up loading Mint instead. My daughter uses that laptop now, and hasn't mentioned any problems.

It's the classic "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" thinking. But what happens when both of them are your enemies? You end up having two friends, who are also both your enemies.... Frankly, it's a strategy. Clever? Only if it can be successfully pulled off, and both of them end up wiping...

Um...hate to say this, but #3 and #12 are actually promises that have been kept. The Patriot Act was revisited; but nothing was overturned, leading to the conclusion that this administration believes no unconstitutional executive orders were issued. Warrantless wiretapping was reviewed, and...

Hey - did y'all read that Obama is throwing the State Department out there to the wolves in a desperate attempt to deflect attention away from the NSA phone records scandal?

Link doesn't work; says "page not found."

Let me see if I understand this correctly: Don't like the Patriot Act because it can be used for purposes that we don't understand; BUT, you're okay with monitoring phone calls and records, which is an extension of the Patriot Act and is advertised exactly like the Patriot Act was (deterrence...

BTW - and this one's for you, Poncho - I'd been wondering for a couple of years what they replaced Carnivore with. Now we know.

Boulder, Colorado police are using the same principle. Can't find the article right this minute, but a woman complained that she left her door open; she doesn't have a screen door; and left for a while. When she came back, there was a note on her table that a policeman had been in her house. She...
