Meals for the Poor - unOFFICIAL ADVENTIST FORUM

Welcome with open arms fellow believers who don’t see things the way you do.
And don’t jump all over them every time they do or say something you don’t agree with
– even when it seems that they are strong on opinions but weak in the faith department.
Remember, they have their own history to deal with. Treat them gently. Romans 14.1: The Message

Gail I have many points... Registered: 12/10/02 Posts: 13646 Loc: Buon giorno, Principessa	In a poor home in Palestine, the evening meal depended heavily on the family's garden. Vegetable stew, seasoned with herbs from the yard, was served in a common pot. Everybody dipped in with a sop, which was a piece of bread used to scoop out a mouthful. The family gathered close around, sitting picnic style on a mat on the floor. If there was company for dinner, Mom usually managed to find some meat to add to the pot. Some condiments were offered to help liven the meal, like olives, pickled onions or toasted pumpkin seeds. _________________________ Gail gail@adventistforum.com And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.
