Greetings all.

Been awhile, but the Lord is leading me back, so looking forward to getting reacquainted with old friends and maybe make a few new ones. :tiphat:

If you have a Festus-ism you are fond of, please feel free to share. He was a great intellect, with a keen insight on life. I'm trying to pattern my life after him now. I'm even trying to look like him, but I haven't found a hat that looks just like that quite yet.

Blessings in Christ,
Hidden In Him

"S'ppos'n' I was to go to work learnin' to read writin'.

How'd I know that the feller that wrote the writin' was a-writin' the writin' right?

It could be that he wrote the writin' all wrong and here I'd be just a-readin' wrong writin', don'tcha see?

You probly been a-doin' it yer whole life, just a-readin' wrong writin' and not even knowin' it!

Welcome back my friend HIH. Glad to see you back and looking forward to conversing with you. God Bless.

Glad to be back, GH. Heard about your ailments, and I plan on doing some praying for you.

Hope to talk to around some as well, and blessings,

Yeah, but most of it was just home remedy stuff, like how gizzards cure diarrhea and chocolate-garlic cures memory loss, stuff like that.

Call it a ministry. Some people really buy into that stuff. My wife was sharing one with me just the other day... oh yeah! The one about how if you squirt olive oil on a mangey cat's butt, his fur grows back. Supposedly it really works! Probably depends on the cat, though.

I have a friend at the convenience store on my route I wanna try it out on, but I'm not sure what he'll think of me if I squirt him in the butt with olive oil. Might lose a friend.

Welcome back old friend! Mostly I just lurk about here these days, but I'll be watching for your posts. Give God the glory!

I saw you peeking at one of Emerson's Bible study threads, and thought I might like looking in on one of those myself, so maybe I'll see you there.

Great to see you still posting! (and lurking). You're still my greatest inspiration on addressing others respectfully.

(I'm getting better, btw, believe it or not, LoL). :Thumbsup:

If getting better mean growing toward God, is this not a good thing? I believe it.

If you is a sittin under men who is a teaching you greek meanings
how doesn you really know if the greek he be a using is really greek or is it twisted to rather fit an agenda .
If you is a sittin under men who cliam to know GOD , CHRIST , the TRUTH
and are using bits of the bible , HOW does ya really know ifn they really be a preaching the truth to ya at all .
If men are saying we know GOD , we know CHRIST , here let us teach ya
HOW does ya know if what they be a teaching ya , REALLY IS OF CHRIST .
BIBLE TIME FOLKS . TIME FOR TO LEARN for ourselves what JESUS it is we really been a following , Is it of men OR OF GOD .

Absolutely! Seeking Him for greater gifts these days, but what's the point of greater gifts without greater fruit to go with it?
Festus the ol red neck bible thumper has a question for all today .
But what if greater fruit is not the good fruit but the bad fruit .
The fruit of the SPIRIT is in ALL RIGHTEOUSNESS godliness and TRUTH proving what is acceptable to GOD .
The fruit if the wicked , TO SIN .
How do we know folks if the fruit we getting sold AINT rotted to the core as it overlooks and even accepts sins
