Forgive my ignorance, but what is EA?

Everyone's Apostolic. The site that this happened on.

The one "I" was banned from. ("I" being someone who has never plagiarized in his adult life!)

I see. I never heard of it. Sounds very liberal! :)

Why were you banned?

It is anything but. In fact, quite the opposite. More of an amen corner for conservatives.

Today I logged onto EA, and was scanning the front page. I was quite surprised to see one of my sermon titles listed on the right side of the page, and I thought, "Hmm, maybe someone posted it from the other website".

Well, I clicked on it, and it was my message - word for word, but another preacher had taken credit for it!

Now, I don't mind telling you, I was a bit miffed. But, should I have been? I never copywrited the message, so maybe I really can't complain.

What are your thoughts on this issue?

Did he preach it better then you? :tease

I am enjoying EA for the re-connecting aspect of it. I don't go much for the discussions or the forum.

I disagree with that RW. Although I don't understand why some were banned I don't think it's all conservative.

Hmmm...I thought "Everyone's Apostolic" sounded inclusive. It must mean "All of us here are hardliners". :)

Well, not everyone there is, but the site IS run by them. To be honest, there are some who are more liberal (or as I like to say, "free") and you are allowed to be, as long as you don't openly proclaim it.

Re: What would you do in this case?

Well, I am very disappointed.

The document that the brother posted is word for word to the document I have posted on preachit.org.

You'll see my message to him below, and then his response to me.

Actually I am not a member. I heard this story at ALJC campmeeting in Olla, LA. I wrote it down and I have preached it several times. As we know there is no new thing under the heavens. It is a great thought though.
