Good Morning Nancy,

Matthew 12
35 A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.
36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
37 For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.

If only all here would apply what you have said << The key word to me is reason that should be done with mutual respect with long suffering and tears, and the fruits of the Spirit.>>
True Satan cannot win with the Christian in that he cannot change what the Lord has done for them. However he gains a victory in an individual battle when a person (not knowing the Lord) who views bitterness and the opposite of the blessed fruits of the Spirt being displayed amongst Christians here.
Isn't that person likely to think "do I want any part of that?"
I love reasoning in the scriptures and every opportunity to study and debate in them and to rejoice with this large family we belong to.
It's time for all of us to think on what Steve is grieving over though. We need to go to the Lord and ask Him to have His love and purpose shine through in every conversation here and that all hearts are filled with His presence.
May His blessings be on you and yours always,
John
