Who I respect the most on AFF!!
 
It is not the person who agrees with me!
It is not the person who disagrees with me!
It is not the person who has no opinion!
It is not the person who is extremely opinionated!

Who I respect the most on AFF are the people who hold their beliefs/convictions in a sacred manner who are secure of who they are in the Lord. Those who are comfortable in their biblical positions and yet at the same time have a profound respect for those who hold different viewpoints from them. These people don't have to have things THEIR way but they are not about to compromise in the least on the foundation they are standing on.

It's not THEIR way or you're a backslidden apostate.

There are many such people here on AFF and you can tell who they are by their attitudes. You know where they stand. You know Who they belong to. You know you're not going to convince them otherwise. They are, however, not afraid to let you know where they stand but they don't cram it down your throat either. To these people, diversity is not of the debil, it is from the Creator.

I truly love these kinds of people! They have a strong back bone, a solid resolve and an iron will. They also have the Spirit of Christ and it is obvious in their demeanor. May God bless you all abundantly!! You know who you are! You are the ones who really make AFF the safe place of liberty and diversity it is!!


SALUTE!!!

I agree, MOW. Sis. Alvear and Miss Brat are two of those.

Re: Who I respect the most on AFF!!
 
I couldn't agree more MOW.

Respectful discussion between those of differing opinions is, often times, a lost art.
