Brother Epley an example for all of us.
In the thread Judge Not I tried to put some scriptures to help us balance our words. It is not always what we believe that is or is not offensive. It is how we say it and how we treat others that believe different than us.
I have written a long time on this forum and have taken notice of Elder Epley. He believes different than many people here yet his words are not offensive. He is an example to all of us no matter how we believe.
We may want to add others to the list I am sorta busy right now however I was thinking of good examples even in differences...

Hehehehehe! Apparently you have never read where he says people are going straight to hell for this or that! Even so, I really like Brother Epley. He can tell me I am going to split the pit any time he wants!

Re: Brother Epley an example for all of us.
Yes, Rico I have but he brings in things in a way that he is not offensive...well at least to me I think he is an example of a very conservative preacher but most of us would stick up for him because even though he expresses what he feels to be truth I have never found him offensive...not even about the women preacher issue...he doesnīt believe in them ( but they exist..ha) but I donīt think he would hurt anyone on purpose.

Re: Brother Epley an example for all of us.
You know we can tell people in a tone..you are going to burn...and not be offensive and say the same words in another tone and cause great hurt.
I think we have other people on the forum that are not offensive and believe completely different from the elder...what I am really trying to say our words should be kind no matter what we think is truth...

Re: Brother Epley an example for all of us.
Thank you for the compliment. Yes I do think some things or beliefs will send folks to hell but I am not rejoicing over the fact.

Re: Brother Epley an example for all of us.
I am just not reading this right I guess since I am clueless however it is all right to say and do whatever you want as long as you say you don't do it to hurt anyone.
I think that is exactly how everyone wishes it really was.
Bro. Epley is a great poster and am in no way taking shots at him.
Just couldn't keep out of this one!
