Full Gospel Church Taken Too 5th grade?

New Testament text will be from the Aramaic...it just really hits you what the text says at least to me.

Well listened to many different worship songs this morning, and just kinda reviewing pages of scriptures and things I already have and have not posted yet. Then of course memories again from when we were young, I had to have been in elementary school as we lived on Edgewater as I remember the man coming to dinner to our house. Why you wouldn't forget the dinner, well our family never ate in the dinning room...we had a big eat in kitchen with table there, so all our meals were there. Only special occasions were ever ever eaten in the dinning room and this is where we ate with him.

We were raised Missouri Synod Lutheran am assuming that came also from Switzerland. Of course they were ones to break away from Catholic's yet kept some things. At that time we were all enrolled in their schools too. So it wasn't just Church we went to it affected a lot more.

Daddy as I recall ran into this man I want to say downtown at a car dealer place not really sure. Anyway he was a preacher in town at a Full Gospel church...something we didn't know anything about then. Daddy was so impressed with this man, as he found out, this man traveled with nothing, and he would even have no money for gas to get him to the next places to go. Well God would fill the tank and get him to where he was going...without even stopping at a station. Daddy wanted to go hear him so would take us all and went to the church. The memory I have more than anything was the song they kept playing...of course the chorus line is what I remember. I will put the song. They also then of course had an alter call, which we never did in our church..several of us went down can't remember who all did that I do know I did and remember Con. I did edit the song put just what I remember on one of my other sites but you do have to click open select a media player to hear it. 

 

Well of course this was all so different, and being children I guess we all talked about the church being excited about it am sure but doing this at school. Well of course parents got called in and the threat of being removed from the church and school I guess ... well that happened to with daddy as he was an Elk member. So had dealings with the church for a couple things. Scripture just came to me, of course I think Daddy like most people even today feel something is missing, yet your faith is so strong in God doing miracles you do seek when to the Lord puts someone in your path.

Matthew 7:7. Ask and it will be given to you, seek and you will find, knock, and it will be opened to you.

Years later the family all came out of that church, and of course none of my family goes to churches, my sister Con did for the longest time, and what I remember about that even, they seemed to be fine and did great in business until they both became elders. Wow did their business get hit from the Lord I am sure. I don't know that anyone else in the family became members of anything. I was thankful when the Baptist church pressured my son to become a member they refused.

Our membership needs to be with Yeshua only, there is only One Shepherd.

John 10:7-16 But again Yeshua said to them, “Timeless truth I speak to you; I AM THE LIVING GOD, The Gate of the flock.” 8 "And all who had come were thieves and robbers, but the flock did not hear them.” 9 "I AM THE LIVING GOD, The Gate; if anyone will enter by me, he shall live and shall go in and out and shall find the pasture.” 10 "But a thief does not come except to steal, kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life and have whatever is abundant.” 11 "I AM THE LIVING GOD, The Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd lays down his life for his flock.” 12 "But a hired man who is not a shepherd, whenever he may see a wolf coming, leaves the flock and runs.” 13 "But a hired man runs because he is a hired man, and cares not about the flock, and a wolf comes snatching at and scattering the flock.” 14 "I AM THE LIVING GOD, The Good Shepherd. I know mine and am known by mine.” 15 "Just as my Father knows me and I know my Father, and I lay down my life for the flock’s sake.” 16 "But I have other sheep which were not from this fold; I must also bring them. They also will hear my voice, and the entire fold shall be one, and One Shepherd.”

You can't help but with the text think of Paul that wolf and what Jacob said about Benjamin calling him a wolf Ge 49:27

Then another song came to me, just because this man was a traveling Gospel man that the Lord did provide for and of course there are secular songs that do make statements too..some ok and some not. For me if a song pops into my mind...I usually go find it.
