   If anyone desires to get me a paid account, more power to you!

   All right, I have to say what I've been aching to say since Sunday.  It blew my mind.  Pastor Rose (I don't remember what he was speaking on) mention that Paul would have given up his own salvation to have the Jews saved.  Wow!  Let me quote the verse:

    "For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh:"

   That's Romans 9:3 for those of you who want to look it up.  It totally floored me, because I totally can not say that.  I mean, I would love to, but I wouldn't give up my salvation for anyone!  And here was Paul, one of the greatest men in the Bible (to me) who would give up his own salvation so that his countrymen could be saved.  I mean, wow, I still can't get over it.  How seriously do we take the fact that others are lost and dying and going to hell?  Obviously not enough.
