I have always participated fully, but I cannot find it in me to sign on any dotted line. <BR/><BR/>Somewhere, deep in my psyche, is buried the irrational notion that church membership is the mark of the beast. I found it much easier to raise my right hand and promise Uncle Sam that I would die for his country than to do the same thing for a denominational organization. <BR/><BR/>Methinks I have a little more of my father in me than I know. :-)Kevin Knoxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16788817477327510023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15860677.post-1157376612686244202006-09-04T08:30:00.000-05:002006-09-04T08:30:00.000-05:00WF,In our church, we have over 2500 in attendance ...WF,<BR/><BR/>In our church, we have over 2500 in attendance on any given Sunday. I guess it would be a little tougher to write that letter.<BR/><BR/>Still, I've wanted to say this to many of my friends and in-laws concerning merely 'attending' church.<BR/><BR/>God doesn't keep an attendance chart, and there are no bonus-kudos for merely visiting a place where people gather to worship.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the chuckle.<BR/><BR/>God Bless<BR/>DougDougALughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13335959723414264767noreply@blogger.com
