We are very alike

In Reply to: sbMT, you know what I think? - gourdpainter

in our beliefs. I tell everyone I am "Southern Baptist by marriage" LOL

As we know in the end all nations will turn against us, that includes the good ol' USA too. We're in for some hard times, but it will be a blink of the eye compared to eternity with our Father.

All we can do is pray for those who don't know him and try to share with them. Like someone said (it might have been you) we can't force it on anyone, and I don't plan to. But given the chance to talk about my Savior, you better believe I will.

If someone died for you I would think it would be hard not to constantly talk about them. But I guess because it was 2000 years ago we shouldn't be just as thankful as if it was last week. Go figure.

All I can say is we better enjoy our "free speech" while we can! Pretty soon that'll be gone too!

Great minds think alike! LOL ; )
nm

We are alike in some ways - I agree with you totally.
Oh yeah, since I can't be sarcastic with DH here without it turning into a full blown battle, this is where I can be sarcastic. HA HA HA. Like you, if I didn't enjoy it I wouldn't be here. And we have shown that you can be sarcastic without being disrespectful.

I have not always agreed with everything you said but have agreed with others things you say. So seeing as you share some of my viewpoints you can't be all that bad then. HA HA HA (just kidding).

Great minds think alike...I'll be watching as well.nm
