*wOW...i'M HUMBLED..
<G> I "enjoyed" watching Mr."T" of the "A" team on TBN
give his tesimony last night.. here's a quote:
"...you say you don't beleve in God,
I PITTY 'DA KINE OF FOOL 'eS YOU!"
He had the 'suit in the goldleaf chair climbing the wall,
and curling his toes at his speech, mannerizums...passion
and Mr.T began to *PREACH! THE TBN 'stiffshirt could not
shut Mr.T up!
Mr.T has had a Cancer dionosis, and treatment and is
trusting God for healing! It's been 5 years, and he still
is alive...
Mr.T is self-consumed, a Hollywood "showman" and open to
criticizum by the polite "christian world" for his involvement
in worldly pleasures and passions. So forth-so on!
Mr.T had a father who was a penecostal minister, and he began to
preach shot bursts of scripture he has recalled from his youth<G>
they were all over the map!
*every other quote was mixed-up and backward and out of context<G>
HEHEHE... *I LOVED IT!
There's no doubt Mr.T is a wild child<G>
*But he made a point.. *GOD HAS TOUCHED HIM, and his shareing
that will bring folks back to GOD! He was a fresh wind<G>
----
He sat there and wiped sweat off his Mr.T hairdo<G> You
saw the sweat soak his T-shirt as he *raged... when the
singer began to sing *John the Revilator...*for a break..
Mr.T got up to dance!
This wasn't a "polite AG pentecostal two-step<G>"
Mr.T was DANCE'N!
*I didn't much care what his "politics" was or what his
"agenda" might be.. I stood up in my home and DANCED
WITH Mr.T!!!! Mr.T whirrled... boogied down and stomped!
So did I!
