If you ask a typical evangelical Christian today what the fatherhood of God means to them, they would probably almost all say, “It means that He loves me, that He will take care of me and guide me and forgive me and take me home to live with Him forever some day.” And this would be true – wonderfully true! ... But is it not striking that the most famous of all biblical commands relating to child and father is surely the fifth commandment, Exodus 20:12, "Honor your father and your mother;" and yet very few people today would say that the fatherhood of God implies to them that God is to be honored and revered and venerated and held in sacred respect.

Everyone,

Below is a message from Glenn Stewart - the owner of the server that this
email list uses. Bold lettering is my doing.

OK, things have just moved to an even more critical condition.

AOL *has* begun blocking all email from welovegod.org/welovegod.org.

They began doing this as of November 16. This matches the slope increase
on
the email queue chart I sent in the previous email.

I will monitor the server carefully. At the first sign of damage to
services
here, I will unsubscribe EVERY AOL subscriber from every group here.

If the server handles the situation gracefully, I will not need to do
this,
but you will see a boat-load of "-probe" messages in daily subscriber
reports, removing AOL subscribers from your groups automatically.

Please privately advise your AOL subscribers to either sign up with
Google's
free email service (which they can access while still paying AOL for
service), or to leave AOL and find an ISP who controls their technology
better.
