Why not answer people’s questions.doc Tim Moran wrote: "How many times can we or must we answer "who was cain's wife"? A true follower of God would be honored to answer this question each and every time it would be put to you, and not point some new person that is trying to find an honest answer to an honest question to a hard to use search engine which now brings up pages upon pages of reading. ck 32580 for example. I'm a member of many boards from satellite radio, digital television, many other bible boards to golden retrievers and RV's. It's the same everywhere. Q. "Which is better XM or Sirius?" A. That has been discussed many times, do a search. Just for grins, I went to XMfan.com, and I did a search on “search forum” and I got over seven thousand hits, that’s a lot of non help to people who don’t know anything about satellite radio. How do you think people feel when asking a serious doctrinal, theological question, but you guys here have discussed it what, 5, 10, 15 maybe 20 times already, so you are so tired of that question you basically tell someone this: “We’ve discussed that a bunch here already, please use the search function.” What that pearson is hearing from you is: “you know what, I’m tired of answering that question, look for yourself!” What you’re telling that person is: “I don’t care for you to answer your question.” If someone came up to you in Bible Study would you do the same? Would you hand them a book and tell them; “Look it up, it’s in here, s o m e w h e r e, I don’t know where, try the index.”? I don’t think you would, I hope you would set down with that person and talk to them. This place should be the same… all forums should be the same! Well that person is interested in an answer not searching. Many people, if they're new to a forum, don't know the "KEYWORDS" to search with/for. These new people need a break--they need an answer not somebody getting all haughty and rudely saying do a search. Some more: Q. "Which is better a travel trailer or a 5th wheel?" A. We've discussed that a lot, do a search. Q. "How hard is it to house train your golden?" A. Oh not again, do a search. What is so hard about typing an answer? At least at the golden forum the moderator will do the search for the person and post the results in thread form. If nothing else, do as I do on many boards (and for this subject as well). I write my answers in a word document, copy and paste them to the board and save them. I can then go back and simply cut and paste an answer and edit it for the individual forum. We’re supposed to be Christians, to help people, not to ultimately turn them away. By not answering a question, you could be only proving some pre-supposed attitudes that we Christians only care about ourselves. I submit this to you in a loving and prayerful manner for your consideration. I am Your Brother in Christ, Russ |

It's not so much to scold any one person, as it is to say "Lets just answer the question, and not point people to search engines." I simply feel that we are getting way too impersonal. You ask about satellite radio, I could say go to xmfan.com and read for yourself, but I won't, although www.xmfan.com is an excellent resource. In my opinion XM is better than Sirius because: 1) Sirius has Howard Stern, is there any better reason for a Christian to have XM? 2) Sirius has a gay/lesbian channel, reason #2 for a Christian to have XM. 3) I've had XM since 9/11/2002 well within their first year of service when they had fewer than 80,000 total subscribers and have watched them grow and improve. 4) I really like the line up of channels on XM. the 40's, 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's all have their own special channels and play only music from their own era. Sirius combines several together. 5) I like a lot of easy listening music, XM has several, ch 24-Sunny and Ch 71-Watercolors are the best, but ch 27-Cinamagic has wonderful soundtracks that you can't hear anywhere else 6) Local (if you live in a MAJOR city) traffic and weather reports on XM. 7) a 24 hour 7 day a week national emergency channel on ... ch 247... 24 7 get it? 8) Xm's birds are in stationary orbit, just like DirecTv or Dish network. No hunting to find signals. Sirius uses 3 birds that are in constant motion. Two are active at any one time the third is down below the equator. Tracking the signal is harder for Sirius receivers to maintain a lock. 9) XM has a huge network of terristeral repeters which, in big cities, help keep you from being blacked out when unable to see the bird because of buildings, parking garages etc. I like being helpful to people, and I hoped that helped, btw, in your opinion, why did the LORD say "lets make man in our image"? I have my opinion, but I really don't have time to read thru a bunch of posts here at work.

Oh, I forgot... sorry XM's 170, family chat. All Christian Talk radio with many good programs. also, Satellite radio gives you coverage no matter where you are in the lower 48, some of Mexico and some of Canada. So, you always have the same station lineup and you never drive out of range of a great station that you listen to. (If you like 50's then you'll really like the 50's on 5 on XM then!) sorry to take up so much bandwith here about a non biblical topic. Russ |

65 | second or third coming??? | Titus 2:13 | kw5kw | 155844 | ||
I think what LIVE4GOD and LSmith are asking is not about the rapture, but is indeed talking about the 1000year reign of Christ. The before and after of the 1000 year reign so mentioned in scripture. Rev 20:2 And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years, This being after the Second comming of our Lord, then... Rev 20:3 And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season. Rev 20:4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshiped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. "Reigned with Christ a thousand years", the thousand year millenium reign of Christ after His second comming, then... Rev 20:7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, and the final comming (third???) of God and his Judgement. Rev 20:10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night forever and ever Rev 20:11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. Rev 20:12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. Rev 20:13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. Rev 20:14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. Rev 20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. If you look at this one way, the First comming was when Jesus walked the earth 2000 years ago. Second comming, with the rapture and... then binding Satan for 1000 years then the third comming and the final judgement. I'm confused as well Russ |

Luk 1:39 And Mary arose in these days and went into the hill country with haste, into a city of Judah; Luk 1:40 and entered into the house of Zacharias and saluted Elisabeth. Luk 1:41 And it came to pass, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit; Luk 1:42 and she lifted up her voice with a loud cry, and said, Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb. Luk 1:43 And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come unto me? This proves that the fetus indeed does have a soul! Your Brother in Christ, Russ |

These are all quotes from Watchman Nee's book "A Normal Christian Life" copyright 1977 Chapter 9 "Romans Seven" pages 155-162. "WHAT THE LAW TEACHES Many Christians find themselves suddenly launched into the experience of Romans 7 and they do not understand why. They fancy Romans 6 is quite enough. Having grasped that, they think there can be no more question of failure, and then to their utmost surprise they find themselves right in the midst of Romans 7. What is the explanation? First let us be quite clear that the death with Christ described in Romans 6 is fully adequate to cover all our need. It is the explanation of that death, with all that follows from it in chapter 6, that is as yet incomplete. We are still in ignorance of the truth set forth in chapter 7. For Romans 7 is given to us to explain and make real the statement in Romans 6:14, that: "Sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under law, but under grace." The trouble is that we do not yet know deliverance from law. What, then, is the meaning of Law? Nowhere in the New Testament are men of faith told that they are to keep the Law; but it does say it the Law was given so that there should be transgression. "The law came in ... that the trespass-might abound" (Rom. 5:20). The Law was given to make us law-breakers! No doubt I am a sinner in Adam; "Howbeit, I had not known sin, except through the law: ... for apart from the law sin is dead ... but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died" (Rom. 7:7-9). The Law is it which exposes our true nature. Alas, we are so conceited, and think ourselves so strong, that God has to give us something to test us and prove how weak we are. At last we see it, and confess, "I am a sinner through and through, and of myself I can do nothing whatever to please holy God." No, the law was not given in the expectation that would keep it. It was given in the full knowledge that we would break it; and when we have broken it so completely as to be convinced of our utter need, then the Law has served its purpose. It been our schoolmaster to bring us to Christ, at in us he may himself fulfill it (Gal. 3:24). 1ST THE END OF THE LAW In Romans 6 we saw how God delivered us from sin: in Romans 7 we see how he delivers us from the Law. Chapter 6 shows us the way of deliverance from sin in the picture of a master his slave; chapter 7 shows us the way of deliverance from the Law in the picture of two husbands and a wife. The relation between sin And the sinner is that of master to slave; the relation between the Law and the sinner is that of husband and wife. This picture is not drawn by me but by the tie Paul. The first husband is the Law; the second husband is Christ; and you are the woman. The law requires much, but offers no help in the carrying out of its requirements. The Lord Jesus requires just as much, yea more (Matt. 5:21-48), but what he requires from us he himself carries out in us. The law makes demands and leaves us helpless to fulfill them; Christ makes demands, but he himself fulfills in us the very demands he makes. Little wonder that the woman desires to be freed from the first husband that she may marry that other Man! But her only hope of release is through the death of her first husband, and he holds on to life most tenaciously. Indeed there is not the least prospect of passing away. "Till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass ay from the law, till all things be accomplished" (Matt. 5:18). The Law is going to continue for all eternity. If Law will never pass away, then how can I be united to Christ? How can I marry a second husband if my first husband resolutely refuses to die? There is one way out. If he will not die. I can die, and if I die the marriage relationship is dissolved. And that is exactly God's way deliverance from the Law. The most important point to note in this section of Romans 7 is the transition from verse 3 to verse 4. Verses 1 to 3 show that the husband should die, but in verse 4 we see that in fact it the woman who dies. The Law does not pass away, but I pass away, and by death I am freed from the Law. Let us realize clearly that the Law can never pass away. God’s righteous demands remain forever, and if I live I must meet those demands; but if I die the Law has lost it’s claim on me. It cannot follow me to the grave." These were Watchman's comments, not mine, but I thought they were relevent. Russ |

Greetings to the entire forum: [SOAPBOX] In as far as I participate in many, many forums from automotive cars/parts to several forums on XM and Sirius satellite radio to several on Bible studies and even a few on the new digital television services. I can’t understand why we (regular users of any and all forums) have so little regard for new users on any and all of them. Background: As a FORTRAN programmer since the early ’70, and a personal computer users since 1979 and as an internet user since 1989 when I used a 300 baud modem (that’s right 300 baud, not a Mega baud DSL/Cable/T1 speeds but a “see-every-letter-typed-as-they-are-typed” 300 baud acoustic telephone modem that you would see if you rented the movie “War Games”) along with a Radio Shack 8088 computer running at 1 megahertz and a total of 640 Kilobits of RAM. Using said equipment to discuss wither or not Captain Picard was going to become a full blown Borg the next season, during the first run of Star Trek the next generation, I just can’t ever get over the hateful nature of people on newsgroups / usenets / forums can be. For instance: Go to www.xmfan.com and click on search. Type in “which better Sirius or XM” and you get over 4,400 hits. Who wants to read through all of those? I don’t, neither does anyone else. But If you come over and start a thread about which service is better, look out brother, you will get exactly the same response that was given here: ”The topic of the two natures has been discussed on this forum so much that most don’t want to rehash it again.” Well so what? We get new users all the time, what does that say to the new users. To the new users of satellite radio, to the new purchasers of Ford or any other make vehicles, or of our beloved Christ? It speaks very poorly of the attitude of the people who inhabit such forums. It might just be the deciding difference if somebody wants to buy a Mustang or a Monte Carlo. It could be the difference between becoming an atheist or a Christian! Our careless attitude might just give some people the reason that Satan is indeed giving them to turn their back on our Glorious Saviour, Jesus Christ. We don’t need that. For instance; if you asked on alt.tv.tech.hdtv about the benefits of COFDM because you don’t know about the benefits or disadvantages of COFDM, you would find you only had one friend. His name’s Bob. Everyone else would scold you out of the newsgroup. But, you, my friend, really want to know if there is an advantage to COFDM. Guess what, nobody will tell you, because “The topic of the CODFM has been discussed on this forum so much that most don’t want to rehash it again.” What does it hurt to tell new people what they want to know. We might all learn something new in the process. If you’ve discussed a certain topic, ignore the thread, or help the new convert. I’ll tell you that most satellite radio users prefer XM over Sirius, VSB 8 is the type of modulation used in the United States for the new digital television service that will replace the analog signals in just a couple of years while CODFM is a type of modulation used in the new Digital Television in Europe. Bob lost a lot of money when VSB-8 became the standard for the United States. I can tell you that there is no such thing as a 1964 ½ Ford Mustang, they are all sold and titled as 1965’s and I can tell you that Captain Picard did not become a full blown Borg on ST-TNG. These alone are just a few of the taboo subjects on other forums. To keep in spirit of this forum, Least we remember what Jesus said in Mat 7:7 “Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:” And in the words of Forest Gump, “That’s all I gotta say ‘bout that.” Thanks for the [/SOAPBOX] Your Brother in Chris, Russ |

I've got them, do you? I know God's in me, Do you? you want a verse, here's a couple: John 5:36 "But I have a testimony greater than that from John. For the deeds that the Father has assigned me to complete--the deeds I am now doing--testify about me that the Father has sent me. 5:37 And the Father who sent me has himself testified about me. You people have never heard his voice nor seen his form at any time, 5:38 nor do you have his word residing in you, because you do not believe the one whom he sent. 5:39 You study the scriptures thoroughly because you think in them you possess eternal life, and it is these same scriptures that testify about me, 5:40 but you are not willing to come to me so that you may have life. |

The "warm-fuzzies" that I speak of is the Holy Ghost inside me, making me feel all warm inside and He's hugging me from within. It's a hard feeling to describe other than "warm-fuzzies." If you don't know "warm-fuzzies" personally, maybe you should try to get a bit closer yourself. And, yes, It's VERY personal, my relationship with God! As far as some verses: Act 18:25 This man was instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in the spirit, he spake and taught diligently the things of the Lord, knowing only the baptism of John. Rom 8:2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. Rom 8:4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. Rom 8:5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. Rom 8:9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. Rom 8:10 And if Christ [be] in you, the body [is] dead because of sin; but the Spirit [is] life because of righteousness. Rom 8:13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. Rom 8:14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. Rom 8:15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. Rom 8:16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: Rom 8:27 And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what [is] the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to [the will of] God. 1Cr 2:11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God. 1Cr 2:12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. 1Cr 3:16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and [that] the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? Rom 8:27 And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what [is] the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to [the will of] God. Rom 11:8 (According as it is written, God hath given them the spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear;) unto this day. Rom 12:11 Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord; Rom 15:19 Through mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God; so that from Jerusalem, and round about unto Illyricum, I have fully preached the gospel of Christ. Rom 15:30 Now I beseech you, brethren, for the Lord Jesus Christ's sake, and for the love of the Spirit, that ye strive together with me in [your] prayers to God for me; 1Cr 2:4 And my speech and my preaching [was] not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: 1Cr 2:10 But God hath revealed [them] unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God. 1Cr 2:11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God. 1Cr 2:12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. 1Cr 2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know [them], because they are spiritually discerned. 1Cr 3:16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and [that] the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? 1Cr 4:21 What will ye? shall I come unto you with a rod, or in love, and [in] the spirit of meekness? 1Cr 5:3 For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, [concerning] him that hath so done this deed, 1Cr 5:4 In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, to be continued... |

... continued 1Cr 5:5 To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus. 1Cr 6:11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God. 1Cr 6:17 But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit. 1Cr 6:20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's. 1Cr 12:7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal. 1Cr 12:8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit; 1Cr 12:11 But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will. 1Cr 14:15 What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also. |

I spend at least 8 hours a day reading the Bible. Not just the New Testament, but The Bible. I minister to others. I know what it is like to be lost. I know what it is like to sin. I know what it is like to be found again. I know what it is like to be taken up by God and have the Holy Ghost enter into my body and stay there. I have died, and departed from my body. I have litterly been above the hospital bed and looked down on my body... my dead body lying there on the emergency room bed. I was put back into my body by God. I had a vision of the Trinity, The Father, The Son, and The Holy Ghost walked towards me. When they got to me, the Holy Ghost entered into me, and remained. Friend, I know I'm saved. I don't have to have scripture, to know that I'm saved. But here's one. 1Cr 14:15 What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also. your brother in Christ, Russ |

Greetings Kalos, While there is good in all of the Scriptures, there is more to Christianity than just the scriptures. We mustn’t get lost in that. Using Scripture to make my point about using the Scripture. Jhn 5:39 Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. Jhn 5:40 And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life. Jhn 5:41 I receive not honour from men. I debated on including the next verse: Jhn 5:42 But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you. We must remember why the Scriptures are here in the first place. They are here in order to teach us about God, Jesus the Christ and the Holy Spirit for all His Glory and Might. But, there is so, so much more to God. We must remember this. There is Wisdom, Proverbs 8, for instance. There is the Earth, Stars and Heaven, Genesis 1. Everything we look at, every person we talk to was created by God’s will, at God's will. We can’t forget that. We must think of God and how He affects each and every one of us every single day. Concerning faith, I think of Rev. Spurgeon’s sermon #317 ( http://www.spurgeon.org/sermons/0317.htm ) and his discourse on Faith. Daniel’s faith delivered him from the mouths of the Lions (Dan 6:7-28). The centurion’s faith allowed his servant to be healed. (Mt 8:5-13) Moses’ faith allowed him to free the Hebrew people and talk to God (The entire books of Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy). His (Moses’) lack of faith is also what kept him out of the Promised Land. Abraham’s faith allowed him to be the father of great nations. Noah’s faith allowed him to build the ark and escape the flood. (Both in Genesis) And, my faith in Jesus, as my Saviour and Lord, is how I know I’m saved. Your friend in Christ. Russ |

Greetings Pastor Glenn Oh, I'm very aware of 2 Tim 3:16. It's one of the verses that I first point to when I'm teaching the Bible to younger people. Did you read the Rev. Spurgeon's sermon? He has a great sermon on faith, and although he has references to passages in the sermon, in the body of the sermon proper he has no actual references to specific scriptures. At the beginning of the sermon he does reference one and only one verse: John 4:48. The Rev. Spurgeon was one of the greatest preachers to ever live (IMHO), and he didn't think it was necessary to footnote every though that he spoke about. (OH, if you print that sermon, it's 25 pages long.) Your brother in Christ, Russ |

I came here to give an honest answer to how I felt when the Holy Ghost entered my body. When the Holy Ghost entered MY body the Holy Ghost (1Cr 3:16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and [that] the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? )gave me a warm feelinging from inside my body that felt like a warm hug from within. Being that we're all Christians here, I didn't think, that every word I typed here needed a Scripture to back up everything I said. Then I gave an example of someone whom I admire (Rev. Spurgeon) who gave a sermon and used only one quoted scripture in the entire sermon, and once again I'm lambasted. I might remind you all of this: Mat 7:1 Judge not, that ye be not judged. Mat 7:2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. This was a lively discussion, but for me now I'm through with this thread. Your friend in Christ, Russ |

Thank you Pastor Glenn, I said I would be finshed with this thread. After your post I must respond favorably. Your are correct. I have a very 'Special' relationship with my Creator, My God! One that I cannot express in words, only in feelings. My feelings are ... just simply indescrible ... My examples are meant to show that I LOVE JESUS, my Lord, my Saviour! I have to express that feeling. In person I'd be able to express my feelings. In type, on the internet, it is very difficult to express feeling, only fact.

You're right. But, Hank, you have to admit it (red lettering for Jesus' words) have helped you seperate what He said from that of what Matthew, Mark, Luke, or John had to say about the events. Or to find what he said to Paul in Acts chapter 9. It's another study tool. The red letters allow you to find what Jesus said faster. | ||||||

Greetings Bows44, Hope you are having a good day. Eze 28:14 Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire. I've been taught that there were four types of spirit beings that God created: 1. Archangel 2. Angel 3. Seraph (Seraphim) 4. Cherub (Cherubim) If (And I believe that this is talking about Satan, just as you do.) this is talking about Satan, then Satan wasn't an angel but a Cherub. The Cherubim were placed outside the garden of eden to guard it so Adam and Eve could not re-enter and eat of the tree of life. They are described in Eze 1:5-11 "Also out of the midst thereof came the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance; they had the likeness of a man. And every one had four faces, and every one had four wings. And their feet were straight feet; and the sole of their feet was like the sole of a calf's foot: and they sparkled like the colour of burnished brass. And they had the hands of a man under their wings on their four sides; and they four had their faces and their wings. Their wings were joined one to another; they turned not when they went; they went every one straight forward. As for the likeness of their faces, they four had the face of a man, and the face of a lion, on the right side: and they four had the face of an ox on the left side; they four also had the face of an eagle. Thus were their faces: and their wings were stretched upward; two wings of every one were joined one to another, and two covered their bodies." This same discription is repeated in Rev 4:7-9. They Ride on and illustrate the magjesty of God 2Sa 22:11 and their wings sound like the voice of God Eze 10:5. In Rev 5, the beasts are cherubs. So if what you are refering to here as singing, then Cherub sing, but still not clear about the angels themselves. Your brother, Russ |
