Don, deeper truths? But, what you are really saying is that you twist the scripture to fit your agenda for Inclusionism. We are admonished by God to not add or subtract from His words. Deuteronomy 4:2 "Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you." This is a command not a suggestion, therefore the Apostle Paul wouldn't of instructed mature elders and elder saints to have multiple opinions concerning beliefs which dealt with God's word. Peter himself admonishes the church not to twist scripture as you do. 2 Peter 3:16 And remember, our Lord’s patience gives people time to be saved. This is what our beloved brother Paul also wrote to you with the wisdom God gave him. Speaking of these things in all of his letters. Some of his comments are hard to understand, and those who are ignorant and unstable have twisted his letters to mean something quite different, just as they do with other parts of Scripture. And this will result in their destruction. There isn't a reading between the lines, adding what ever baloney pops in your head as if it was a text message from God. If you have to make it up, then that's on you. No pastor is stupid enough to hand over a leadership position to a guy who teaches that scripture can mean one thing to one guy, and then mean something else to another guy. Whatever is good and perfect is a gift coming down to us from God our Father, who created all the lights in the heavens. He never changes or casts a shifting shadow. Which means God's Word doesn't change with time. Therefore it doesn't change because of your self serving agenda.

Deuteronomy 4:2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you. Deuteronomy 12:32
What thing soever I command you, observe to do it: thou shalt not add thereto, nor diminish from it.

1 Corinthians 4:6
Brothers, I have applied these things to myself and Apollos for your benefit, so that you may learn from us not to go beyond what is written. Then you will not take pride in one man over another.

1 Corinthians 4:6 Paul admonishes the church, the weak and the strong to NOT go beyond what is WRITTEN!

Pretty darn simple if you don't have a self serving agenda.

Well, that's a lie. Because I've dealt with everything from Dan to Beersheba. You are a mess Doc.

No, I use the term troublemaker for individuals who force their doctrinal differences on their elders or pastors. First and foremost they don't believe like you. Since they don't believe for a plethora of different reasons, and you are pushing them to accept your mind concerning the scripture you are going to fail, and fail catastrophically. A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city: and their contentions are like the bars of a castle! Then with the utter nonsense you believe to top it off, you wonder why B. Smith is placed on the PAY NO MIND LIST! Then you use Jude's contending for the faith as some sort of a Carte Blanche to justify your behavior. These are the leadership of a church which B. Smith attends. He doesn't have to stay there if he doesn't agree to what is being taught there. Yet, if what he believes is totally rejected no amount of kicking in the pastor's door is going to win him friends and fellowship. If Sister John Doe lifts her eyebrow at B. Smith, and doesn't extend a hand of fellowship, well honey child, it would be well deserved. Contemplate this on the Tree of Woe!

You keep saying you have done so. You repeat everything else but do not repeat the part which shows that you have.

Don, again would you like me to explain it in Greek?

But then, enlighten us all by quoting what I said in error, and telling all readers how it was wrong, if you dare. Of course, reader, Dom will not do so because what I have written makes too much sense to Bible readers. So, don't hold your breath to hear back from Dom with quotes of my words. What he has written in this post is bluster. Check posts 19 and 36.

Don, don't start to use lying as a defence. Lying about what is going on here makes you look bad. Which you already look bad, but topping it off with lying now makes you look like a liar who looks bad. Is B. Smith a liar? Does B. Smith tell lies about Pastor John Doe? Does B. Smith tell lies to his fellow brethren about Pastor John Doe? Did B. Smith get taken off Pastor John Doe's Xmas card list? I bet B. Smith will not be getting any invites to the dinner on the grounds. Why because B. Smith is ecclesiastically immature, wanting to get recognition of the small group of people which Pastor John Doe oversees.
Don, you want a word serving position? Well, this isn't the way to go about it. Tell B. Smith to wash the feet of Pastor John Doe, and then move on to Quebec. French Canadians know how to take care of B. Smiths.
