It's about the same from their perspective as if you were able to see 3 TCOG members return to COGOP, or another example may be if several non-pentecostals become filled with the Spirit. From their perspective it is indeed testimony worthy. :wink:

They count assemblies in recognition of the flow or continuity of what they deem theocratic government. Since they continue in the original vein of government and belief both groups share they see themselves as the same church. Therefore, for them, this is their 103rd assembly as the restored Bible church.

Of course I assume you guys already knows this and are just knit picking. :roll:

The Hispanic gentleman who is praying at the podium must be a soccer announcer in his spare time.

I heard him say "Glory a Diooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooos!"

Is there a schedule online. I would like to see some of the NC delegates.

I believe that you can cite Fair Use, under which you technically should be able to broadcast the music as long as it isn't duplicated for profit or used for a commercial purpose. FYI

Honest, serious question, no jesting intended: what is the significance of people carrying mini TCOG flags on stage?

"Thou hast given a banner to them that fear thee, that it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah." (Psalms 60:4)

Conclusion
We proudly wave and display the banner God has given to the Church;
not with vain pride, but with a worshipful attitude, to be privileged to
represent the One who died for us for our salvation.

This used to be fairly common display in COGOP conventions
of yester year. Actually - much of this broadcast reminds me
of our COGOP state conventions about 25 years ago. Kinda like
going back in time.

I'd like to work their sound board over some. In the
segments I watched - all I could hear was the steel guitar
and some drums. Couldn't hear hardly any of the other
instruments.

yeah they have been showing the prerecorded service of tuesday and the steel guitar is drowning out the rest, it has been better since then, if that is the service you are refering to.

Well folks pray that we have a safe trip and look for the "jude2" sign...

j/k :lol:

I believe that's it. I'll have to confess - I'm a little prejudiced! :oops:

I used to visit a Saturday evening fellowship service at a church
who had a steel guitar player. He was really good & had
played professionally with a well known country music
band - but he always brought 4 monster amps & stacked
them behind him when he played.

He drowned everything out. He stated he needed all the amps
as he was hard of hearing from all those years of traveling on
the road - but to me that was not a valid excuse to overpower
everyone else (especially with the technology available today
as far as ear monitors are concerned.) The pastor wouldn't say
anything as he didn't want to hurt his feelings.

Needless to say - the services fizzled out fairly quickly.

Hope you have a safe trip to the "Holy City" One Love!
God Bless!

Aren't there some Assemblies in the nineties (before the Concerned split off) that they don't recognize as "theocratic"?

During the intermissions, we are switching to a stream of the booth in order to do some additional testing on our video quality. I appreciate the input that everybody has given regarding the dark video. Unfortunately, our video guys are not able to brighten the video any more due to our DVD recordings. Feel free to give me additional feedback to make your viewing experience more pleasurable.

And btw... I am the guy in a tie with the blackberry.

.... Figured y'all also might be interested to know that we're broadcasting via our media Mac Pros with some sweet specs!

Why isn't the business going to be webcast?
