Hiya Lynne. Yea I had a great Christmas. Just myself, Sheree and Matthew. Had a few people round on Boxing day, but apart from that very quiet. Just the way I like it! Glad to hear that you all had a good one too and that I wasnt the only one in bed before midnight on new years eve! Linda is still going on with the Lord and although like all of us she sometimes struggles she always overcomes. I am not on here much myself either now as I think that the little free time I get can be used better. But I have sent you my e-mail address if you want to keep in touch.
Hiya Lynne. Thank you. You have a great one as well. I am sure the kids will have a ball! I havnt been on much as I decided that I was not spending enough time in the Word as it was and I now have a new Job which gives me even less free time and thererfor the time that I was spending on the pc could be better used. But I would like to know how you Dave and the kids are, did you guys get a new building to worship in? can you drop me an e-mail after the Christmas madness as I would like to keep in touch. I remember you all in my prayers. Love and blessings - John.
Hi Lynne, I just joined AllaboutGod yesterday. I'm in a woman's group and I read what you said a few months ago about wanting to lose weight. There's a link called sparkpeople,com. You might be interested in this, I'm not sure.
Your pictures are very cute! love, Darlene
Hey Lynne! Dont let the photos deceive you. I live in a town (well officially it is a City but really it is just a large town) and it has all the usual trappings of a town/city including alchohol and drug abuse, violence, hoodies, theft etc etc......... But I dont usually take photos of that lol!
Thankfully despite all Matthews difficulties he loves the outdoors and therefore we love to take him, which is a blessing as otherwise I might spend my freetime reading the Bible and eating pizza! My sis is doing great as as Tim (the ex-alcoholic durg addict) and we are now a regular trio at most meetings. Your boss in the charity shop backslid like I did. You wake up one morning and wonder how you got so far away. Satan is indeed more subtle than any beast of the field. Great news about Damian! I believe in household salvation (even though my wife has never been as far from God as she is now). The next time you have an outing to the abundant life church leave the housework, praise God and rejoice!
Your Bro In Jesus.
Hey Lynne. My sister Linda is going on with God faster than I could ever have imagined! She knew almost nothing about the Gospel except for the basics that I told her, but now she is soaking it up like a sponge! What did Dave and you decide to do about the charity shop? I am sorry to hear that you can not meet on a Sunday morning, but at least you have somewhere to meet on a Friday. I have found that some of the most powerful meetings are held in peoples private homes. (Just as the first century church did.) Acts 2:46
"Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts." So you are quite correct when you say that there is nothing in scripture to set Sunday apart. As it says they Met every day! And if we were still under the law we would have to keep Saturday as the Sabbath. Most Christians meet on a Sunday as that is the day of the victorious resurrection. God Bless you and your fellowship.
Romans 14:5
One man considers one day more sacred than another; another man considers every day alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind.
Hi Lynn. I have not been online much over the past week. Things have been hectic here in lots of ways. But the best news is that my younger sister got saved! She has not yet set foot in a church but is looking forward to comming with us tomorrow. She telephoned me when I was driving home from work on tuesday and told me that there had been a tremendous battle taking place within her for some time and that she had just surrenderd her life to God! Dave and you will get direction about the charity shop and a place of worship. Our God is the Soverign Lord! I hope to be online a bit more in the coming week. I will remember your needs in my prayers. God Bless.
Hey Lynne, Hi to you too! I just started a Bible study for the first time. We had a video with a British guy called the Alpha course. Have a great day. Kathy

Hi Sis. I will remember your fellowship in prayer. Alhough I attend Hillsborough Elim there are several independent evangelical fellowships in Lisburn. The likes of Lisburn Christian Fellowship and Kingdom Life City Church both started off in borrowed premises but because they are on fire for God they have grown to very large prominent churches in the town. Even the Whitewell Metropolitain Tabernacle in Belfast began in a borrowed hall and now has a congragaition of 3000+. I know that your fellowship preaches the Word and is filled with the spirit. Therefor if God be for you, who can be against you? Glad to hear that it is working out for you in the charity shop, sounds to me like the owner of the charity shop is under conviction from the holy spirit! I did not get to church this morning as Sheree is away and my mum & dad who usually take matthew out on Sundays are on holiday. I can see an improvment in him and I am praying that I will be able to take him to church with me one day soon. My sister is going to look after him now so I should get to the evening service. I took him to a country park this morning and walked for miles, I am now exhausted. I did not know that I was so unfit! But it was good to walk along the shore and through the countryside. I was in awe at the wonder of creation and then it struck me that if the earth in its fallen state could be as beautiful as this, what would it have been like before the fall? So I have came home and been taking another look at Genesis 1. In verse 12 we read that the land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good. Then man rebelled against our creator and in Ch3 v17 we read "Cursed is the ground because of you; through painful toil you will eat of it all the days of your life. It will produce thorns and thistles for you". If it is beautiful with the thorns and weeds I for one am looking forward to the day when all things are restored! Rev 22 says "Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb down the middle of the great street of the city. On each side of the river stood the tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit, yielding its fruit every month. And the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations. No longer will there be any curse. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in the city, and his servants will serve him. They will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads. There will be no more night. They will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, for the Lord God will give them light. And they will reign for ever and ever." That is what we have to look forward to no matter what happens in this age!
Hi Lynne. Yea another hectic week but like you say. Nothing that God cant handle. Sheree has gone to Scotland to climb Ben Nevis so Matthew and I will be living on take aways until Sunday! I pray that all is going well for you and Dave in the charity shop. (If Dave is now the manager does that make him your boss? lol). With regard to the "big bang" machine that they have made, I think they have just invented a very expensive high speed scalextric racing set! I prefer the word of the creator to the imagination of man.
Romans 1:20-22
For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse. For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools.
