Where oh where do you draw the line with an active sense of humor. Some things are dog gone funny. I deal with that often and try to temper it a little. Not always successfully. But then again, I want to be genuine. Being born again shouldn’t be boring. Hopefully I won’t hear about it later. Anyway, it’s His righteousness, not mine. And I also know, as Paul said, Grace isn’t a license to sin. So love God, love your fellow man, and accept the Sacrifice on the cross. And relax in Him And laugh. These people at RITA are pretty hilarious at times. Geri, that verse about not forsaking the assembling together with other believers...I once heard a teaching on it that said it actually means, if you look in Hebrew, to not forsake the teaching about the rapture (our assembling together). Don't remember who said it, but maybe a Bible scholar among us can tell us. Yep, laughing is good and free medicine :whistle: Nehemiah 8:10 “the joy of the Lord is my strength” Proverbs 17:22 - A merry heart doeth good [like] a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones. Job 8:21 - Till he fill thy mouth with laughing, and thy lips with rejoicing. Psalms 126:2 - Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the heathen, The LORD hath done great things for them. Ecclesiastes 3:4 - A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; Luke 6:21 - Blessed [are ye] that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed [are ye] that weep now: for ye shall laugh. James 5:13 - Is any among you afflicted? let him pray. Is any merry? let him sing psalms. Proverbs 15:15 - All the days of the afflicted [are] evil: but he that is of a merry heart [hath] a continual feast. Genesis 21:6 - And Sarah said, God hath made me to laugh, [so that] all that hear will laugh with me.
