There are no knobs on the outside, just the inside.<BR/><BR/>The thought of tepid water makes me nausious. I think about the stuff you drink when you prepair to<BR/>have a colon procedure done. To think that the Lord would feel that way about a church really gets my attention.<BR/><BR/>I go through periods feeling flat<BR/>or luke warm. Wish I had a bottle of "when I first believed" to pull out.<BR/><BR/>Thanks Bill for the teaching.<BR/>Please continue on with Revelation in your blogs. <BR/><BR/>DT.Double Toehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05112756952326008438noreply@blogger.com
