I just took mine off...*lol* no need for the suit... I just took mine off and I would rather not have to wear it more than once a day. Besides, I think that it can be both... at least with the respect to alcoholism, obesity, high blood pressure, etc. Notice I didn't add the sexual misorientation :) But that is also why I added the "sins of the forefathers (passed down through the fourth generation)..." in my previous comment. The things our parents and grandparents and so forth pass down are both genetic issues and spiritual ones. So, while obesity, high blood pressure, alcoholism, etc can be genetic, they can also be a spiritual passing... (well, ok, not so sure on the obesity and high blood pressure... I guess that depends on your stand.... Maybe I should at least get the boots on... SO many opinions could enter here.... is every physical issue spiritualy related (and by "spiritualy related" I don't necessarily mean "demons and evils spirits".) But I know there are those that do feel that way... I myself feel that your physical state can be lined up with your spiritual state and that many things (ailments or what have you) can be spirit related, but, is everything?? Is every issue or sickness a demon attacking or messing with you? Not so sure on that one. Let's see where this goes.... ;)Mrs. Guthriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07180155901745114728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20376595.post-7485419716239978712007-05-08T11:41:00.000-04:002007-05-08T11:41:00.000-04:00well... i think that there are genetic tendencies ...well... i think that there are genetic tendencies or predispositions toward many bodily "issues" (obesity, alcoholism, sexual misorientation, high blood pressure, etc.), but what we do with those tendencies or predispositions is our own responsibility. We can be strongly influenced one way or the other by both sides (i.e. God and Satan), but ultimately we make the decision to act on our predispositions and are responsible for those actions.<BR/><BR/>ooh, controversial. should I get my flame-retardant suit out?mirahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02052394218089165385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20376595.post-85192333006449791402007-05-08T10:06:00.000-04:002007-05-08T10:06:00.000-04:00Oh MY!!!

His answer was:<BR/><BR/>"No, just alcohol. I'm an alcoholic. I drank a lot of beer."<BR/><BR/>While the "lot of beer" seemed rather obvious to me at the time, and perhaps even the "alcoholic" part, I've thought about it more since then.... and realized I now have an opportunity to pray for this man who is incredibly bound by his addictions and the alcohol. Some may argue that alcoholism is Spirit related. I know that he is bound there, as well. So, while he was a moron, yes, I realized later that he is also a man in a very desperate need for Jesus. <BR/><BR/>But he still did make a fantastic story. :)Mrs. Guthriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07180155901745114728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20376595.post-20411538572982172232007-05-07T15:50:00.000-04:002007-05-07T15:50:00.000-04:00but WHY would I listen to such sage advice?*rollin...but WHY would I listen to such sage advice?<BR/>*rolling eyes* some people are born morons - sorry you got stuck dealing with one!Bug and Eyehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07916327587320000614noreply@blogger.com
