  I took your list to Lidl but could find none of it on the shelves.
  I asked for four candles and you'll never guess what they gave me.

    Thanks Neville.
    Well, numbers without brackets are the original order of the instructions.
    Numbers in brackets are the order in which the items were made.
    If still not following - play bingo with the numbers instead!

  BRIAN HERE ~ At the End of the Day ! Thanks for the hymn ~ delightful but rather medievil ! I believe that All Christians should have a working knowledge of the Whole Bible ~ All 66 Books ~ OT (39) NT (27) Each Book - Each Chapter & Each Verse is equally precious !
  Your analysis of NUMBERS (25 ~ 40) shows the meticulous detail in the Whole of Gods Creation and this included the TABERNACLE which was in essence *A Portable Church !* God leaves nothing to chance. I remember when I used to go to Tented Campos run by the *Open Bretheren* The Meeting tent would be set out for the Communion Service (Lord Table) on the Sunday Morning. The TABLE would be in the centre covered with a white cloth. The chairs were set round the Table in increasing circles so that nobody had pride of place. We had no CLERGY only ELDERS & DEACONS as indicated in the NT ! The GOBLETS for the WINE (often non-alcoholic) and the caraffe of wine and a whole loaf of bread was placed on a plate - with smaller plates to pass round the bread when it had been *broken*. Only those who were Baptized (by immersion) Believers we allowed to partake of the Bread & Wine. The meeting consisted of *spirit led* hymns (acapello) and scriptures with or without comment. A Brother was designated to give Thanks for the Bread (which was broken) divided into four & distributed ~ and likewise the Wine was decanted into four separate Goblets which were passed round. The meeting concluded with a *Short Word of Ministry* The same system was used in the Keswick Convention with thousands in attendance ! *The Tabernacle in the Lake District* ~ AMEN ! In AMERICA there are life size replicas of the TABERNACLE which are very intersting ~ as is the life size replica of NOAHS ARC in Kentucky ! Thanks for sharing a very informative Poem it refreshed my Memory ~ AMEN !
  
  Blessings to You & Your Patriarchal Pup
  Spirit Love ~ A & B & El Gato 💛💛💛

    Thanks B&A. That'll be Exodus, not Numbers - though there are a lot of numbers in the poem!
    My hymn-poem, or poem in the clip being medieval? The latter is fairly 'modern'. lol. 1869.
    There's some weird Brethren Church near us. All locked up, no publicity, no notice boards. Oohh, what they up to in there?

  19. The fire extinguisher to put out the fire.
  20. The truth.

    Thanks Gold. Yes, them candles in churches with wooden pews. Would Health & Safety allow it? Some Candlelight Services - a nightmare - very hazardous. Or Baptisms where each person may received a lighted candle.
