@Jhayward @sinbach i always think of the man who gave His life to Jesus, while hanging on the cross next to Him
No water baptism.
No obvious filling of the Holy Spirit.
No 'churchy' things.
And yet evidently was gonna meet Jesus again based on just saying yes, as far as I can work it out....helps me keep perspective when I think about what constitutes 'coming to faith'

@sinbach @Knittinggrace me too, on both fronts (although not the Swedish church bit ;-)

@sinbach @StevenBerry I thought Iceland had already gone cashless, previously....then had major issues with computers failing and had to backtrack as people couldn't get paid or buy food...I may be wrong...

Heard that one a few times
I started out in a baptist church (UK) & spent a year working with a fabulous [Pentecostal] school ministry team
They said I couldn't be filled with the Holy Spirit, since I didn't speak in tongues. Then I led worship, & they said I "shouldn't be able to lead worship like that unless i was filled with the Holy Spirit"
Thankfully, we just got on with the ministry, learned something about each other, and got closer to Christ 🙂

@Olamide I love lots that Chris Volotten says and can listen to him all day long
His stories and delivery make everything seem so very personal and impacting

@raymondthebrave yes i saw that and wondered........
I know there are spikes around the UK, with overall numbers of cases starting to trend upwards again - as predicted by many back in March.
Sadly, it seems like we're on track for that rise at the moment it seems...will have to see what transpires!

How easily we take for granted our freedom to simply believe. Lord let us not grow complacent but use our freedom to wholeheartedly pursue Your perfect plan for our lives. Burden our hearts with the desires of Your heart to reach the lost and the broken. Strengthen and protect those who daily fight for their lives because of their refusal to bow the knee to anyone but You. 🙏🏻
@Rinati thanks Rinati... I'm kind of leaning that way. But if we do go that route, I just want to do it in a way that is not over obvious - so it does not seem like we're asking for money, cos it being free is more important.
Thanks for your input
