Jude 2

After 9 years in the Church of God of Prophecy, I have surrendered! My resignation, that is. Many of you have been a blessing to me. I will miss you! I have moved from Virginia and have returned to the land of my forefathers. May the blessing of the Lord be manifest upon those who are hungry for more of Him. Whew, what a journey! Gotta run!

Congratulations.

Leaving COGOP doesn't mean you need to leave Jude2.

Are you shifting to another organization? Doing something of a more independent nature? Where is the "land of your forefathers??"

I have left the COGOP and will be returning to the Illinois, Indiana region. I have not yet determined where I will land ultimately. I just returned from the Toronto Airport Christian Fellowship Pastors and Leaders Conference where the Lord moved mightily in my heart. My perspective has been realigned by the Power of the Holy Spirit. It was a very refreshing time.

Blessings,

Roger Whetstone

So, did you start laughing, coughing or roaring, "in the spirit", or did you start roilling your head in a palsied sort of convulsion, or have they come up with a new "manifestation"? Excreting "in the spirit", perhaps?

Man, just about the time you think you've heard the last of something, it rears it's ugly head again. Tell you what, let us know if you still feel the same way about it in a few years...

Good grief!!!! Don't you think God can use whatever ministry he desires to reach someone - regardless of anything that is going on around them?
Maybe he heard that "still small voice" or like he said, "the Lord moved mightily in my heart" and brought him to a closer relationship with Him and will lead him where He would desire for him to be.

22 years later....I still feel the same, more excited about the Holy Spirit than ever before...determined to reach every lost soul possible.... Hey Mike ! Just go ahead and jump in the River

To bishoproger Be blessed on your new journey..Pray that God wilol use you mightly. I know that sometimes making that type of decission is difficult ( been there) but once it is made and you move on, it is amazing how good you feel, knowing you did what God has spoken to you.

Y'all think what you will, and bishoprbw don't be a stranger here because of your decision ..... but I didn't know the Toronto Airport had enough people living in it that they had churches inside, let alone enough to support a pastor's conference.

The Lord could use a hooker in a strip club to touch someone, if He chose to, but that doesn't mean it's a good place to go seek Him.

What about those states with a no-touch law?

Hey what is "Toronto Airport Christian Fellowship Pastors and Leaders Conference" and who sponsors it?

page 65 in the Blue Book and let us all agree and sing in song...

Where He leads me, I will follow.

Amen

It started out as a small meting in Toronto with John Arnot as the leader....it soon became know by the title "The Toronto Blessing". It was characterized by many different manifestations of the Holy Spirit. ( to which some say was only flesh and not spirit). Such as uncontrollable laughing ( which I seen many times as a kid in the cogop ). Rolling around, some barking like a dog ( which again was documented in some of Jhonthan Edwards meetings ). you can google it and get many pros and con's. No doubt more cons.
