Subject: Easter redux Author: Steve [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 11:53:22 05/12/04 Wed I don't know. Very strange. Maybe I'm just out of the loop or something after the verbal fisticuffs I had with Tom Donoho and Fred Nero last fall. But did anyone notice there was no Easter sermon this year? Most important holiday of Christianity and the leadership thinks more of self aggrandizement? (Witness the recent game of hostility ping-pong betwixt Tom and Fred.) I had saved earlier ones from Fred Nech; though I know little of his situation, I understand he has been heavily put upon in his private life; but couldn't designated delegated authorities have stepped in to help him on this one?

Only concern over "how" some things were being explained and I thought we had agreed on that one as evidenced by your replies back. So find this rather interesting. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> [> [> Subject: Re: Easter redux Author: F Nero [Edit] Date Posted: 23:28:19 05/15/04 Sat I do believe I sent the entire of Region 6 my monthly email that had a short Easter Message contained. Perhaps your email address is incorrect in our database: Here is part of what was sent: From The UCFM Bishop Of Region 6 April--2004 Blessed Greetings to all In the Region He is risen! And that fact alone makes Christianity far more valuable and real to people than any other religion on earth. For we do not serve a dead god but a Living God, the Son of the living God and thru the Holy Spirit we are united in Him, thru Him and with each other. For if He hadn't come to die for our transgressions, then there would have been no way that we could ever be reconciled back to God. It would have been by our own efforts and God would not have gotten the glory He so richly and rightly deserves. For now He gives us the enabling power to do what the Law by itself was unable to do, and that is to be Holy as He is Holy, perfect as He is perfect. It is thru the Gift of the Holy Spirit that we are able to do this thing. This resurrection leads us to the next season which is Pentecost, when the Gift was delivered, when the "church" was born, when we became united to "one another" to worship, to fellowship , to disciple, to minister and to evangelise and spread the Good News of the Gospel that Jesus the Christ, which had suffered and died, is now Risen and Alive!! PTL!! May this resurrection season be a blessing to all of you! ----------------------- [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
