Strong City...something weak there.
Last night I saw a documentary on the DOC channel that sent shivers up and down my spin. Most of you who know me, know that I have an unapologetic Christian and fairly knowledgeble about biblical thing.
The documentary was on the Strong City cult... http://www.strongcity.info
They are led by Micheal..aka Wayne Bent. He has his followers believing he is the Messiah...which upon watching and listening to him is hard to believe. Members of this organization need to look at what he is and has done....not even considering the criminal charges against him.
1. He predicted the date of judgement and the end of the world... The bible plainly states Christ said "only the father knows"... The book of Revelation does NOT have Christ/Messaiah coming to earth...telling the date...and them fullfiling it. Strike one!
2. Christ lived a perfect life...the Messiah was to come from a Virgin...and born... already happened... No new Messiah will come and stay on earth....look at Revelation. Strike two!
3. Christ came to fullfill the law, which he did....if he returned...he would not break it. Micheal has under "direction" of the father broken biblical laws (adultry, covetry, and a host of others). Christ/Messiah would not do such a thing. Strike three!
In watching Micheal on the video he was almost constantly in a near hypnotic state...almost like he was drugged...when speaking he was TOO calm. In listenting to the followers: they seem to throw all reason out the door concerning anything Micheal says.
Paul stated that we should work out our salvation with fear and trembling. Test our faith and try it against scripture....prove it correct. There is nothing in the bible to support a number of the teaching, actions and suppositions that Micheal makes.
I urge anyone who wants to see what a cult looks like to view this video. It is very disturbing to see so deep into a organization that controls people in such a way, playing upon their need for salvation. Know what you believe....folks like this may knock on your door promising peace, love and community. Do not be fooled. I pray for their members that they may see God's love...not this false presentation.

date nite 2
Wow doesn't seem like very long since my last post...but it has been. We did the date nite conference last weekend. Chris Beam pulled it all together. We played...had fun...then he spoke and tied it all together.
Since I was in the band...here is the set list.
Rosanna
Carry on Wayward Son
Then we played "Don't Forget the Lyrics!" with the songs:
I Can't Fight this Feelin
Hold on Loosely
Good Times (Chic version)
Home
Word Up
Followed by:
Why Can't this be Love? (VanHalen)
Take Me There
So Small
Say (What you need to Say)
Bunch of fun songs with a great message form Chris.
Can't wait for the next one....maybe I can snag some pics to post.

It's Saturday...
And I will be going to work for a while...fun. Then coming home to work..fun. But after that is done I plan to find SOMETHING to put on the grill this evening. I believe I have some smoke chops in the freezer.
On another note. Wife is the drama teacher at the high school. They are doing a version of To Kill A Mocking Bird for one act. Interesting play. I have seen it several times, see the movie, read the book, etc. A lot of folks who see the play are fixated on the race issue in it. They lose the fact that Atticus is teaching his kids that the folks who are looked down apon because of age, economic situations, mental handicap, etc....all thoughout the play.....are not to be looked down apon because they have so much to offer. I hope the kids involved in this play and those who watch it pick up on that fact. We all have something to contriute...everyone is special in some way. Just my two cents in this crazy mixed up world we live in.

kansas
Am playing with a group doing a conference and one of the songs we are doing is "wayward son" by kansas. Kerry Levgrin is a neat guitarist. The solos and structure of this song are very well crafted. Got the first of 4 solos in and a bridge run learned yesterday. Plan to learn the second one tonight. Figured out the best way: Audacity has the ability to solo a solo down without changing pitch so you can play it and hear what is going on.
On another note: found a neat mod to do to my 18 watt...a power reduction switch. Should help me drop the power down to like 9, then 4 watts. Much better for practice although 4 watts is still pretty loud. Those who say no have never spent any time with my 1.5 watt Firefly..it will make your ears ring.

Labor day weekend
Labor day weekend was fun. Took the wife and kids to the Bay Point Marriott in Panama City Fl.
Much fun and food was had by all. Wife did the spa thingy. I got her an appointment and she had a wonderful time.
It's not about the trip...it's all about them. I love my family. I am proud of my wife and kids. I don't know how I could go on without them and being able to spend a weekend away was very rewarding.
I just want my wife to know she is the love of my life and means everything to me. Love you honey!
We have been married 13 wonderful years and I look forward to many more.
I love my kids too...of course, but I know that without us loving each other and making the commitment to each other our kids would be missing something that they truly need...a family.
I see so many others struggling to stay together. I see what a busted marriage, affairs, distrust and lying can do to kids and a marriage. I pray that the good Lord will hold us and keep us from ever giving up on each other, or giving in to this world.
I love you Di and don't you ever forget it.
