Why not? Because it's non essential.... so why the strong feels about Serpent Seed another non essential understanding?

It's a fair question
Why do you care what he thinks of you and your belief?

Re: Where do you divide fellowship?

because unlike others here... I love the entire body of Christ... I try to reason together with my brethren.....

THe Disciples wanted Jesus to shut down a man who was preaching, not quite like they were and Jesus told them...."if he's not against us he's for us"

I feel the same.. and I try my best to show Christian love and character in my discussion.. unlike some,, its never personal for me...... I simply try to defend my understanding of the scriptures...

perhaps one day you and I will admit in the face of eternity... we didn't know nearly as much as we thought we did

You have said that you don't get personal. This seems personal. My point to you is I think very few people from this forum will follow Branham. You know how TR or me are going to react.

The only way I would believe all this Branham doctrine is if an Angel of the Lord or the Lord Himself told it to me. I would have to have a road to the Damascus moment like Paul. But since I have already got the Gospel of Jesus Christ, I don't think the other will happen.

Re: Where do you divide fellowship?

I divide fellowship if someone distorts sin as acceptable or holds a doctrine different than what I teach AND tries to "convert" people to their point of view. I am very tolerant except to the intolerant.

Absolutely not! I have never stated what you assume. I said what I said for the sake of unity and working together. Would you want me trying to divide your fellowship by trying to teach everyone there that they are wrong and that I am right?

Dividing fellowship, from my point of view, doesn't mean castigating, rebuking or ridiculing. No one can really "fellowship" someone who is quite different from them.
