><>...Alan, Nancy, and Bob...><> I ask that you all not take this post too personally, but enough is enough already. This fight has gone on for ever. So let it die out already ok? Please all of you just take a step back and see the childishness all of you are exhibiting. He said, she said, this this one and that one said, bringing up old posts, this is for juveniles and those who want only to cause strife. Please let it go. There are so many wonderful things of God That we all could be joyful about. Let us dwell on those things. If someone rubs you the wrong way just try to understand that we too may rub him/her the wrong way. There are many different personalities here, and none of us, are so wonderful that everybody should feel especially blessed that we are here. As Christians we are representatives of our Lord, (even if some choose not to be called Christians),and as representatives of our Lord and Saviour Jesus the Christ we have a responsibility to Him as well as to others to behave in a way that is pleasing to our Lord Jesus, and in a way that reflects His love. To carry on and on over the stuff you guys are at odds about is not worthy of Christ. If you guys just cannot find it in your hearts to let it go and get on with more worthy and more pleasant conversations then use the private message button. Having your long winded and everlasting heated angry arguments in this public forum is not one bit edifying, nor is it the least bit advantageous to the body of Christ. Come on now, Bob, Alan,and Nancy, all of you have some very wonderful and loving attributes and stores of knowledge that you can share, and we can all be blessed by that. Please let this very old, and very childish battle,a nd all the strife be done with once and for all. I pray thee, let it go. Put all pride down. Forgive one another and go on with the will of God. Bringing His truths to thos e who are seeking it...we are the 99! Gal 5:13-16 13 For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another. 14 For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 15 But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another. 16 This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. Please understand that I have written all of this in love. I desire only for all of us Christians to always try to please God and His most precious Son our Lord and Saviour Jesus. Let peace fall upon this place and may all who come here be truly aware that love and grace do abound. Mark 9:50 50 Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his saltness, wherewith will ye season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace one with another. Ps 133:1-3 1 Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! 2 It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments; 3 As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the LORD commanded the blessing, even life for evermore. Let the love and Light of Jesus fill this place, and may the grace of God be with all. Shalom...><>
