Buddy Wed, 03 Jan 2007 15:49:27 +0000 http://www.christianchallenge.org/PastorBuddy/2007/01/01/memories-musings-and-much-to-do-about/#comment-86 Thank you Doris, You and Jim will always be special to Betty and me. Having a shared religious background gives us room for extra understanding. I certainly agree on Pam's anointed singing. That girl can raise the hair on the nape of your neck with her beautiful voice for Jesus. Afraid I have a selfish bone in me that would dearly love to have Pam in our congregation. (See if you can talk her into it.) : ) Yes, Nathan is a wonderful minister. He has the treasures of Jesus locked up inside him. They come out each time he teaches. Truly love you and Jim. We will let you know if we need you for anything. (Because I know you are serious about that.) The Lord bless you, Buddy Thank you Doris,

Buddy; I just now have finished reading all of your posts since Dec. 23 (well I am a little behind)I have enjoyed everyone of them and it was kinda like seeing you again, although I was reading it, It was like I was hearing your voice. Jim and I miss you and Sis.Betty but we are glad you are doing well. I agree with you that Bro. Nathan is a wonderful Minister of Gods words More than normal. When I get to hear my Pam sing I know she is anointed of God and our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and I feel that same feeling when I hear Bro. Nathan. I am so glad that when Jim ask me to come to Christian Challenge I said yes. God's Love is so amazing. Well now it's me that is going on. Well get well soon and if you need us for anything just let us know. Love You and all your family and miss the ones we don't see very often. Doris and Jim Bro.

Buddy Tue, 02 Jan 2007 14:05:44 +0000 http://www.christianchallenge.org/PastorBuddy/2007/01/01/memories-musings-and-much-to-do-about/#comment-79 Lois, I've had an intense love for the study of the Hebraics of Christianity from the beginning of my Christian experience. One of the first books I bought as a young minister was Josephus. I've always felt that my family, probably through both the Martins and the Carvers, possibly share in Jewish lineages. I am very much at home in my Hebrew studies. Have a goodly selection of books that are Jewish and not Christian. I use them to get a better feel for Judaism, but not for input into my Christian walk. I want to know how to minister to Jews. (Which I have done on a number of occasions.) So, yes, it could be that mama was trying to tell me about our Jewish heritage when she called attention to our Black Dutch lineage. However, the case may even be stronger through my Martin lineage. Other researchers have found that my Spanish forebearers in Natchitoches, Louisiana, were aristocratic and very proud. (The were some of the largest land owners in that area,) In fact my great-grandmother (Spanish line) resented my grandfather's (her son) marriage to my grandmother [They were cousins but grandma's line was more English]. It was a pride thing. The Spanish can be very proud and arrogant people. Mama told me that my great-grandmother was very mean to my grandmother. (She went to live with my grandpa and grandma, after her husband died.) Could share more but this gives you an idea of my thoughts on our Jewish lineage. I don't think any of this has anything to do with my Christian walk. It makes me nothing more than a sinner saved by grace. Blessings, Buddy Lois,
