I loved the time my husband and I went to hear a speaker and went to the altar for prayer...the guy put his hand on my head and since everyone else had fallen down so did I.  Well, hubby wasn't gonna.  He resisted, the speaker kept pushing his hand against hubbies head, hubby pushed back (veins rising on his neck), the speaker then let go and just as hard as he could slapped his hand on Jerry's head and then actually pushed him!  Finally, he just moved to the next poor soul in line.  I was laughing on the floor (I think you are to have a very spiritual moment there), Jerry helped me up.  We laughed all the way home. I threw that guys books away too!

Hi Gena,

I can easily picture Jerry doing that!

Priceless!

That preacher can count himself lucky he did not push too much, I could see Jerry getting into a three point stance and blast him backward like his days playing the line at the U of Michigan!

Peace,

Joe

daywalker,

There was no refund. You know; once they get their money they move on to the next circus act.

Amen Marlene-thank God we were dragged to the truth!

Joe, that is so funny!!

 It reminds me of another one.  We were listening to an evangelist at our old church.  During his message he brought down his own rollex watch to make this big point of not caring about luxuries etc.  He looked around and just gave the watch to Jerry.  Go ahead keep it, the guy says, means nothing to me.  Blah blah for the next half hour.  Finally after altar call, and dismissal, we were filing out the door.  I am telling you the truth, that evangelist was leaping over the pews(!!!), yes, to come and catch us before we left.  You forgot to give me back my watch, he says to Jerry.  Oh, I thought you gave it to me.  No, that was just to prove a point in my message!  So Jer gave it back!  Again, we laughed all the way home picturing his face!!  (Jer insists he was going to give it back anyway!) :D

gmik,

I had a similar experience. After the alter call at the church I attended the ushers take you into a prayer room. They inform you that since you have accepted Jesus as you Lord and Savior you have the gifts of the Holy Spirit and can speak in tongues. I had a guy put his hand on the back of my neck and the other on my stomach and tried to get me to speak in tongues. This guy pressed against my neck and stomach like I'm supposed to spit words out of my mouth. The new-bee Christian standing next to me gives me a look of bewilderment. I thought I wasn't going to do something I was uncomfortable and utter what I heard the others do so I began to hum bass guitar riffs with my mouth. I used to play the bass guitar. After several hums the tongue speaking session was over. The guy tells me, "You didn't allow the Spirit to give you utterance. But hey! You spoke through song!"

Marlene,

Don't feel ill about the past. Even Ray tells us he got duped. If we didn't go through these error prone moments in our lives then how can this scripture be fufilled?

John 16:13
"But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all truth."

Be happy!
