Hi Bob,
Are you saying the disarray is a new thing? I have gone back to previous posts when I heard others say they had been run away by Emile in the past. Beleive me this is unfortunately all to normal for this thread. Again I would prefer you to post the attacks you have received from Alan and Jane so we can understand exactly what was said rather than implying their attack. Maybe we can work through this and put the enemies deceptions to rest here. In Romans 11 starting in verse 25 that he does not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own conceit. So how can you say there is no mystery? I have no doctrinal statement nor have I ever made one I am just sharing scripture as you do and you added the doctrine to it. I hope you are not wise in your own conceit so you can not see what Paul is saying. The text goes on to quote an OT verse in Psalms that the deliverer will turn Godlessness away from Jacob. What do feel that means? Anyway I don't have a strong opinion personally on when this will happen I just believe the text to be reliable so I watch to see what wonderfull plans God has for us all. I am glad you feel sure of satans use of the religion and do not need to discuss it with you further. I can say that I have not seen you use the terms satan worshipers etc... but you have said things to my husband that were wrong and you won't even try to consider how others feel about it. Jane, Jack, James and I all know Alan better than you so if you are a reasonable man you should see that maybe you misread Alan. So be it, if you want to instruct, exhort,and encourage you should do it with GRACE and truth and if someone is offended be patient, kind, not boasting, not envious, etc...and most of all with a circumcised heart. May the Lord truly bless you with His peace, Nancy |
