we  stand  truly  for  the  Lord  Jesus  Christ.



             Here  in  our  own  church  we've  dealt  with



             issues of discipline; we've dealt with issues



             of  divorce,  the  communion,  music,  public



             schools, birth control, standards, the issue



             of  sports,  the  issue  of  evangelism  being



             done the wrong way, and we have watched



             how people react to those things. I have sat



             in  business  meetings  with  five  deacons  in



             the  meeting  and  not  have  one  of  them



             speak up for me.  And then in one meeting,



             about a week later one came and said, "I'm



             with you, brother."  I said, "That would have



             been  a  big  help  about  a  week  ago"  —



             because he could have changed the whole



             course of things.
