Good Morning Jane,
I sure don't blame you for wanting to no longer expose yourself to this. I have watched Graystone and believe he is trying to make a point that we are overreacting to prejudism by doing the same, maybe not, but that is how it looks to me. His comments to you are strange and really come out of nowhere. My Pastor shared that the Internet is not suitable for fellowsip in the Lord for you can not really get to know people for they can be anything and claim to follow Jesus which many do not even claim that here, like you said they just drop these wierd post here and there. Anyway when you belong to a congregation you develop relationships with people you know to be in the Love of Messiah and they are accountable to the elders etc.. I seriously doubt the effectiveness of this media for the Lord. Graystone may not understand what it feels like to see your 9 year old son at the end of an AK47 rifle with his hands up, peeing on himself and crying for mercy, then he would understand why I react to the very root of this behavior as I have seen here. They can not see themselves as doing this but any German you ask could not have seen themselves as exterminators for Hitler either, the yeast works through the lump quickly, the heart gets harder and harder as we can see on this thread until you are standing there with a rifle having no pity for a terrified child. Jesus taught us to beware of yeast (bad doctrine) for we see the fruit it produces.
Anyway God is doing wonderful things with our lives and as always it is pure joy to serve Him. I hope you will be refreshed and encouraged by the love of our Lord and washed of the negative you have been blasted with here.
Love and peace to you in the Name of Yeshua, Nancy |
