21 | How did alter calls or invitations start | Bible general Archive 2 | christian7 | 102632 | ||
Jim: Reading from the journal of Sam Watkins in a book called “Company Aytch” I came across the following entry. While he was attending a revival that was in Dalton, Georgia he noticed many soldiers coming to the services nightly. It was a custom to call up mourners and a long bench had been placed in proper position for them to kneel down at. Ten of them were kneeling down at this mourner’s bench, pouring out their souls in prayer to God, Asking Him for the forgiveness of their sins, and for the Salvation of their souls, for Jesus Christ their Redeemer’s sake. Page 107. Written in 1863. This mourner’s bench has been around for a very long time in Southern history. At the Church I attend often, they have these benches in the front of the Church building and many come there to mourn almost every time I go. Some refer to this as an alter or an alter call. I have seen them since I started going to church and have even visited them a few times myself. I find that this is an excellent and wonderful place to come and pray and mourn and there are others that come to join with you and just let you know you’re not alone in your battles. I have also been to churches that don’t have this bench. The understanding there is that you can settle or pray right where you are (which you can) and its just between you and the Lord with no one else knowing. I thank God for both. God Bless |

22 | man's tradition | Bible general Archive 2 | christian7 | 102642 | ||
I really couldn't say it is a traditon of men and I will let you know why I say this. One evening a jailor after waking up out of his sleep noticed that all the doors in the jail were open, and he drew a sword out to kill himself, supposing that the prisoners had fled. But an apostle name Paul cried with a loud voice for the jailor to do himself no harm, that no one had left. That jailor found a light and came to the apostle trembling and fell down before Paul and his friend Silas and asked them "what must I do to be saved". I read about it in the book of Acts, Chapter 16. So I see in the Bible that sometimes people do "come up to" a man of God. Get down on the ground. And seek God. hope this helps some. God Bless |

27 | what does slain in the spirit mean? | Bible general Archive 2 | christian7 | 115547 | ||
Hank: Thanks for explaining the purpose of this forum. I thought it was to see how many christians could be both confounded and offened in one place at one time. I must say I felt BibleStudyForum was winning the prise. Whats that you say? Learn scriptural exegesis....hummmmm once upon a time in a land far far away, before anything was acceptable, and restricted post were allowed to go on and on and on...... God Bless You for hanging in there Brother. I am sure you are still a help to many and know that the Lord has a crown laid up for you. God Bless |

mommapbs...I agree with searcher56...at first I struggled with this but after seaching the some scriptures the Lord gave me ease on this...Hebrews 13:4 marriage is honourable in all,and the bed undefiled:but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge...as long as both are concenting not forcing it is undefiled...if there is forcing...well thats not honourable...you dont force someone you love to do something they dont desire to do...I believe it becomes selfishness at that point...God Bless | ||||||
