I heard an old, old story
How a Savior came from glory
How He gave His life on Calvary
To save a wretch like me
I heard about His groaning
Of His precious blood’s atoning
Then I repented of my sins
And won the victory

O victory in Jesus
My Savior forever
He sought me and bought me
With His redeeming blood
He loved me ere I knew Him
And all my love is due Him
He plunged me to victory
Beneath the cleansing flood

I heard about a mansion
He has built for me in glory
And I heard about the streets of gold
Beyond the crystal sea
About the angels singing,
And the old redemption story
And some sweet day I’ll sing up there
The song of victory

O victory in Jesus
My Savior forever
He sought me and bought me
With His redeeming blood
He loved me ere I knew Him
And all my love is due Him
He plunged me to victory
Beneath the cleansing flood

What a friend we have in Jesus
All our sins and griefs to bear
And what a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer


Oh, what peace we often forfeit
Oh, what needless pain we bear
All because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer


Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged
Take it to the Lord in prayer


Can we find a friend so faithful
Who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness
Take it to the Lord in prayer

I am an old man. I have sinned many times. But the true Christian church is the body of believers, not your local church which may or may not be a good representative of Christianity. The body of believers, the true Christian church, is made up of those souls who have believed in and accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior. So I am a redeemed sinner, as are all true Christians.

There are many on here expressing skepticism as I expected but maybe someone will think about what I have posted and become a believer. Peace to you.

Our Predestined Appointment


Revelation 20:11-15

The moment we were born, a countdown began on our life. Every tick of the clock brings us one step closer to our inescapable appointment with the Lord. Each of us will stand before Him as we approach our eternal destination.

Tragically, there will be shocking disappointment for some. Jesus Himself warned, “Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name ... ?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness’” (Matt. 7:22-23).

The only way to eternal life is through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. Truly, our sin has separated us from the Father. But God’s Son provided the solution to this universal problem: Christ lived a perfect life and then died a sinner’s death on the cross at Calvary to pay the penalty each of us owed (Rom. 6:23). After three days, He rose from the grave, defeating death and evil. By accepting His sacrifice on our behalf, we no longer have to live apart from God.

To receive this amazing gift, we must simply believe in Jesus and what He did. As a result, we become new creations (2 Corinthians 5:17), are adopted as God’s children (Eph. 1:5), and enter into a never-ending personal relationship with our Father.

Do you have confidence about where you will spend eternity? You may assume you have time to figure out this important issue, but let me give you some wise advice: Don’t wait another minute to settle the matter, because later may never come. Repent of your sin today, and follow Jesus.

Replies so far justify my original statement. :spank:

The Dems already changed the rules when they had control in the senate. Why should the majority rule not apply to the supreme court? Republicans would be stupid not to use a simple majority to confirm a Republican nominee. They can change the court to a conservative lean for many years if fairly young judges are selected. Does anyone doubt that Democrats would do this if they had the chance? They changed the rules when it benefitted them; they would certainly do it again.

I hate tipping. Just PRICE THE FOOD so that the owner can pay the workers what he thinks each one contributes to the success of the business, based on what the prevailing wage rates are in that area. That puts the owner in control of his labor force and he can pay each worker what that worker is worth to the business.

A pretty blond bimbo with big tits that is friendly and flirtatious but a bumbling server will still get a good tip. A coworker that is ugly as sin but works HIS/HER butt off will not get a tip as good as the bimbo. FACT. But the owner knows which one is the most valuable worker and will pay accordingly (hopefully).

I think I B Freeman is opposed to everything.

Maybe Time Warner got the message from president Trump what they needed to do at CNN to get that merger with AT&T approved. Maybe it's happening.
Here's to CNN: :moon:

If you think Obama was a qualified leader, you're dreaming. Experience? Several years as a community organizer (whatever that is) and 2 years as a do-nothing U.S.senator. Nothing else except a glib tongue when using a teleprompter; a stumbling, bumbling incoherent rambler otherwise.

Trump has gotten off to a slow start because of stupid Democrats opposing everything he is trying to do, disregarding the well-being of the USA. But things will get rolling soon and the USA will be in much better shape in 4 years than it is now.

And don't be surprised if Trump does not run again if the country is in good shape and the prospect of a Republican succeeding him is fairly certain.
