What you learn locked up:
Real recognize real.
Some guys turn religious in prison for protection and to "lay low" because for some reason, people are respected for that in those circles. They leave you alone. But if you keep gamblin(or lookin at dirtymags) and reading the Bible at the same time, they will find you out, call you out on it, and faster than you know it your cantine money is took and what you gonna do about that?
Whats my point? Well me personally I havent yet found a verse that specifically forbids gambling. I know proverbs say quick money aint no good usually, but its not specific "dont gamble verse"
Yet even the lost world knew that its not something a man of God should do.

I know EG and DC are military guys, they know the GLOORY GLOORY HALLLELUUJAAAH song. Now thats what im talking about! MINE EYES HAVE SEEN COMING OF THE GLORY OF THE LORD!
You get a bunch of guys singing that to a marching beat and IM IN. But backstreet boys moaning to the microphone? Im running for the door brother!

Paul went to as many as he could until he could no longer do so and we should do the same.
But the day will come when we may not be able to go, but we should not stop gathering with those believers close to us and do what ever we must to protect those same believers.
This has happened in the past and will again.

Gambling is not forbidden. It's not a good ide EITHER.
So they drew lots for them, and when the lot fell on Matthias, he was enrolled with the eleven apostles. NET Bible Then they cast lots for them, and the one chosen was Matthias; so he was counted with the eleven apostles. New Heart English Bible They drew lots for them, and the lot fell on Matthias, and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.

God said the gates of hell will not prevail
If they will not listen to me here, I will go where God leads me
I will not go hide in caves. I can not bear fruit and win the lost hiding in caves.
The 144000 and two witnesses win many lost souls. The harvest will be ripe. It always is in time of great distress.. Thats when God will need us most.
I will serve him (I Hope) Like I served my country. If not. May God forgive me

I am not for it or against it....what I mean is.....the time will come in our lifetime when we will not be allowed by law or death to speak of Christ or the truth....at that point, for the sake of those I love...I will disappear and am fully prepared to do as such and have been convicted by God since 911 to do as such....and if you knew EVERY DETAIL and how everything Came about you could not possibly deny that God's hand was in it......for example.....exactly 3.5 years of supplies for my handicapped son....OVER 3 MILLION DOLLARS WORTH that I did not have, handed to me freely by the state! Or...once when building where I will be, on a saturday on the way home I prayed and told the Lord I needed $200 to finish a project and I did not have it and could not get it, could he please help....On sunday a COMPLETE STRANGER walked up and said....God laid in on my heart to give you this....he shook my hand and placed money in my hand at the same time....EXACTLY 200 DOLLARS.....HUNDREDS of examples like this...NO ONE will convince me that God did not move me to prepare as I have for what is coming....

Im for evangelizing, going OUT to do it. I also didnt say your church is the devil, you said you have like an hour of preaching so that sounds good to me.
I was just listing things ive heard on here and in real life on how preaching is substituted by this and that, clearly in your church its not substitued

I know what you mean.
Music is very emotional, like worship. My wife dislikes this type of music as well, she is very classical.
My heart needs to soar with my Lord, so if I feel that in another I can link up.
I can sing a bit, so I just worship our Lord and King.
I worship in any format or situation, if it is bringing honour to His name.
In the end you need to find ones own worship expression, because He loves us all.
As far as long sermons go, normally I know most of the contents, so little is new,
it is the application and how the Lord is speaking to me at that moment.
When my mind opened up, and I saw how many threads exist even in one small part,
my mind got blown. I want to fill my mind with His word, so I can be ministered to
and minister to others. His word is eternal and living, our life blood, glory to His name.
And glory to God, there is no right way, it is our walks, a reflection of who we are, like
any child, we all have our expressions and joys, Amen.

If 144000 missionaries won 1 person. There is 144000 sould won, I believe many more than this will be saved.
When people see the two men rise from the dead and ascend to heaven, How many do you think will repent?
Look at the OT. God sent prophets into harms way all the time. Many were killed. Many were not. But God still sent them.
I believe I will not be here, I am not convinced, but I believe the church will be taken before it all happens.
But if i am wrong, i will do what needs to be done.. We have to be prepaired one way or the other. The world will need us.
