If this "worked," which (of course) it doesn't, it would be simony (link). It's yet another example of life being stranger than fiction.

Comment Guidelines:
1. Thanks for posting a comment. Without you, this blog would not be interactive.
2. Please be polite. That doesn't mean you have to use kid gloves, but please try not to flame others, even if they are heretics, infidels, or worse.
3. If you insult me, I'm more likely to delete your comment than if you butter me up. After all, I'm human. I prefer praise to insults. If you prefer insults, there's something wrong with you.
4. Please be concise. The comment box is not your blog. Your blog is your blog. If you have a really long comment, post it on your blog and post a short summary of it here.
5. Please don't just spam. It's one thing to be concise, it's another thing to simply use the comment box to advertise.
6. Please note, by commenting here, you are relinquishing your (C) in your comments to me.
7. Remember that you will give an account on judgment day for your words, including those typed in comment boxes. Try to write so you will not be ashamed if it is read back before the entire world.
8. Stay on topic. If your comment has nothing to do with the post, email it to me (my email can be obtained through my blogger profile), or simply don't post it.
9. Don't post as "Anonymous." If you are going to post anonymously, at least use some kind of recognizable "handle," so we can tell you apart from all the other anonymous folks. (This is moot at the moment, since recent abuse has forced me to turn off "anonymous" commenting.)
10. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you; and abstain from doing to others what you would not wish upon yourself.
Next they will claim the computer knows how the Holy Ghost thinks and prays and guarantees 100 percent successful answers to every prayer.
ReplyDeleteThis sort of "special" praying will cost you double than the introductory prayers at $5.00 a month!
Oh well, it only works on earth and has no effect in Heaven!
I was reading these words of Scripture this morning and it occurs to me these Words throw some water on that flame if anyone was so inclined to retain the computer services, so they could, what, sleep during prayer time?
Mat 10:19 When they deliver you over, do not be anxious how you are to speak or what you are to say, for what you are to say will be given to you in that hour.
Mat 10:20 For it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.
Mat 10:21 Brother will deliver brother over to death, and the father his child, and children will rise against parents and have them put to death,
Mat 10:22 and you will be hated by all for my name's sake. But the one who endures to the end will be saved.
My point is this, the computer runs on electricity and in the event of an electrical outage during the trial that comes against you because of "His Name", The Holy Ghost will still be praying for you, His Elect, according to the pre-determined Counsel of God anyway!
So why waste His money on a man made prayer machine?
Very soon computers will be baptized in proxy for the dead.
