Your characterization of my posts to you and elect is wildly inaccurate. I have not been fighting "the truth" either when I post to you two. You have not posted any truth that I have read. I have pointed out a few things that you both choose to ignore so I leave you to your false doctrines. I've not cussed anybody here but I have been cussed by elect, and maybe you too if I dug back. Paul wrote that we should contend earnestly for the faith. And also shun those who teach a gospel that is different than the one received from Paul. You and Elect do just that and have refused to repent of your false teachings. It's as simple as that. And when you get so agitated that you have to cuss someone that just shows me you are shaken and are not showing the fruits of the Spirit.

><>...Good evening Santiago...><> "Pussy Footing?" Just because I am not ranting and raving...and insulting or arguing. James the one quality (good or bad) that I am not known for is Pussy footing! Your use of the word "Share" as it related to this thread struck me as laughable,and then my second thought was how sad. There is very little sharing that goes on here.I was hoping to help change that...by pointing out the obviously opposite. ------------------------ ------------------------ you wrote; ..."why do I detect much sarcasm in all of your "Thank You For Sharing" posts? Who is to respond to your many thank yous? All of us? " You detected it because it was written all over them. And yes...ALL of US ...should respond. I was going to go through many more posts but began to realize it was a waste of valuable time. And I know there was a time when I posted many writings here too that I am ashamed of. I was even going to start pulling them. Instead I decided to just apologize to all for anything that I ever posted that may have hurt or offended anyone. Even if it was in defense of the Gospel or Christianity. "Righteous indignation"....Is no justification and only counts when one is righteous. As Christ was..... I am far from righteous. --------------------- --------------------- You also said; "... why should one apologize when those you want him to apologize to have clearly abused and besmirched his character because they cannot fight the truth." First of all James ...you are speaking of your truth, and your understanding and interpretation of Biblical or other writings.It may not be the truth at all. And even if it is, just because others do not share it with you makes them no less worthy than you or me...or anyone else. -------------------------- -------------------------- You also said; "Then only with crude and perverted attacks like a non-Christian would make." I know not one person here or any other place on this earth who is not guilty of this even just sometimes......Cristian or otherwise. ------------------------- ------------------------- Then you asked; "Is that the type of person that you want to uphold and stand beside? Every one of us is exactly this type of person...sometimes, and some more than others. It is exactly this type of person that could use tender calming words in response to crude and even maybe, unwarranted remarks. It is exactly this type of person that needs most to believe the loving message of Christ. Someone once said.... It is easy to love those who love us,but to show love to those who do not...well that ...that's love. Sincerely, Shalom...><>
