An alternative for cell group

Jo says:
*gosh today I attended a cell
*sooooo boring
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*lol i stopped going for cells
*long time ago
*cells are boring
Jo says:
*yea.....I mean the topic of discussion
*new beginning
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*alpha course?
Jo says:
*conversion
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*=.=
Jo says:
*so basic
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*swtness
*why do you even go
Jo says:
*Sigh
*u kno these mega churches
*must slot u in cells
*after u come for like 3 services
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*lol
*i know rite
Jo says:
*so business
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*my church wants to follow the mega churches
*put everyone into cells too
*i think my church is bound for destruction
*sometimes i want out
Jo says:
*cells are fine 
*but I don like being recruited
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*cells are done the wrong way
*last time, my mom's strategy of cell was better
*cell was divided into different levels
*the lowest level was the Care Group level - for non believers
*then the Care Cell for new Christians who just accepted Christ and wanted to grow
* then there is a Discipling Cell for mature Christians
*like you and me
*i loved my discipling cell last time
*we got to learn all the cool stuff
Jo says:
*yea the thing is.....
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*like apostolic, prophetic, intercession... etc
Jo says:
*the cell I just went
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*then the last level are for the full time workers
Jo says:
*some of the people were christians for umpteen years
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*yea
Jo says:
*still going thru the basics
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*but now all cells are only one level 
*thats why i think its done wrong
*cells should not be divided into congregational units
Jo says:
*they just following this book
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*nor should it be divided into geographical locations
*or Gender (do you know that they have that now)
*but cell should be divided by spiritual maturity
Jo says:
*my home church
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*because different spiritual age means different spiritual food
*common sense, actually
Jo says:
*they discuss the sermon
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*its always the 4 Ws
Jo says:
*so its ok for different maturity
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*Welcome, Worship, Word, Witness.
*=.=
Jo says:
*but I love my youth group
*all we do is eat and play games
*and party
*of course there are lessons
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*hopeless rite
*now i just dont go for cell
*cell is boring
Jo says:
*I was worried wat happens after I attend it once
*can I just quit like that?
*That won't be nice 
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*well
Jo says:
*I hope they don start hounding me
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... Loved so great it costs a life ::. not giving up before they do and not giving up after says:
*why do you attend? to please people?
Jo says:
*they have my contact and all
*nope....I thot it would be good too
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*in the end, there is no use: if you dont attend, its not good.. if you attend for people, its not good either
*may as well not attend
*lol
Jo says:
*plus if not I waste time at home anyways
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*at least youre happier that way
*at least i dont have to 'sin ' more
*because when i go there, i just end up sinning by grunting under my breath 
Jo says:
*maybe....maybe it could have been a real nice cell
*but I was wrong
*nah...I wouldnt attend just for the people
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*i want a real cell
*i want a cell where i can go and worship God truly 
*where i can hear a message I've never heard before
*where i dont have to play silly games that embarrass people
Jo says:
*I KNOW RIGHT!
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*but instead learn more about each other and appreciate my fellow brothers and sisters
*where bonding actually takes place
Jo says:
*today!.....we had to guess the name of the piece of paper stuck on ur back
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*ahahahahahaha
*oh well
*there are other ways to bond
*and i want real bonding
Jo says:
*I used elimination and got it without asking questions
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*not those ice breakers stuff
*lol technique
Jo says:
*I just asked if it was a man or women
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*like.. lets go on missions together or something
*or go start a church
*thats bonding
Jo says:
*and I looked for all the other women names on other ppls back
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*or like go climb a tree
*or climb the roof
*lol
*oh well
Jo says:
*climb a tree?....missions? not quite related
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*and real bonding takes place outside the cell time
*real bonding takes place in the emails, the phonecalls, the smses and msns, the facebooks and all that
*doing random things like i just mentioned - that totally does not make sense but somehow, can bond
*real bonding takes place in the supermarket and in the shopping malls
*in McDs
Jo says:
*parties
*sleepovers
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*real bonding takes place when real people come together, not to do some fake stuff
*to me thats all a show
*a performance
*even the worship is a performance
*i cant stand it
Jo says:
*I kno right
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*everyone sits down with this piece of paper
*sit down!!
*can you believe that?
*it just pisses me off
Jo says:
*I just feel that these working ppl need to play church
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*now you know what i mean by 'sinning' when i go for cell?
Jo says:
*it does help them
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*i just think of all the things that make me upset
Jo says:
*they do take time out to act serious about God
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*you really think playing church is helping?
Jo says:
*but its better than nothing
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*what they need is a real church
*role playing mommy and daddy will never be able to replace the real parents they are looking for
*role playing church will never have that kind of anointing and presence of God you can find in the church
*who are they trying to kid
*it will only satisfy them until the end of the 2 hours
Jo says:
*it takes some commitment to know the importance of spiritual things
*even if its forced
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*what these working people need is to learn to pray at home and read bible and do devotion
*not once a week paying respects
Jo says:
*but yea....Im not going there next week
::. † .:: Dancingintherain :... says:
*if thats what they want, go buy a red alter and put it at their front gate
*ok.... I'm really sinning now
*lol
*see what i mean

Previously "forced" to get baptized and speak in tongues?

Get baptized again. Nothing wrong with that. At least this time, it's from your heart. You don't HAVE to speak in tongues immediately. But some people learn by following others first, that's possible, not always the case. Some just get it without anyone teaching them. But no, it's not mocking to teach it. Everyone is different, that's all. But the question now is whether you want to learn to speak in tongues or not. I believe God created tongues for us to use, and He had a reason for it. Romans 8:26 "Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered." What probably should have been done is to first share with you the main reason for baptism. John 1:4-5 "John came baptizing in the wilderness and preaching a baptism of repentance for the remission of sins. 5 Then all the land of Judea, and those from Jerusalem, ...

Passover

Tell them about how Easter started — the goddess Eostre, the goddess of spring and fertility, and how it represents Easter eggs and bunnies and why we don’t celebrate it.  And that we celebrate Passover with lambs because Jesus is the Lamb of God and celebrated the Passover. And how Passover was taken away because the Jews were blamed for killing Jesus so everything Jewish was removed by Constantine - including all the other important feasts we were supposed to celebrate. Although the Apostle Paul himself celebrated the Passover (1 Cor 5:6-8), and said Christ is our Passover, asking us to “Keep the Feast of the Passover”. The rest of the early church kept the Passover. So we celebrate the Passover with Jesus as the Lamb, and the afikoman that was hidden signifies Jesus body that was broken because it was the afikoman that Jesus took and said, “this is my body that was broken..”. It was ‘after the feast’ that he ‘took the bread’. That bread is called the afikoman — the last bread af...
