An Open Letter to Steve Epley

I also I want it to be known that I do not run with the good Elder nor have I ever preached for him. I've been getting slanderous emails concerning my association with him and I am not associated with him and I say that with all respect. I have respect for Elders and I'd do the same whether they believed different.

This wasn't a "don't pick on my friend" posting by me in the SP thread it was a "please let's have respect for our elders"

And to answer someone's question they had asked earlier, I am not independent I'm very Dependent.

Lord bless.

You're receiving slanderous emails because of association with SE? What!!! Have people nothing better to do with their time, and concern, than to worry about that? SMH...

Terrible. I may disagree with Rev. Epley on the issue, but I wouldn't send him a slanderous email, much less anyone else.

Sorry you had to deal with that on here.

"If the Pharisees are not accusing you of comprimising holiness then you are not preaching the Gospel of Jesus."

The same men that he fellowshipped, preached and believed the same thing with for years are now "Pharisees" because he has changed his stance.

I am no one that many will know, but once again, I repent of my membership here. Farewell.

Well, that IS wonderful! Jesus CAN deliver ultracons from legalism and phariseeism when those ultracons will honestly search the scriptures and recognize that the whole 'holiness standards' teachings are the rules of men created to help keep people from accidentally sinning and being lost; this is what the Pharisees did in Jesus' day and this is WHY they hated Him so much. He walked all over their 'holiness standards' and truly ministered to those that the Pharisees would have nothing to do with. And when honest ultracons start to read the scripture as it is written, they recognize that they were preaching and living a bunch of manmade traditions that were enforced by fear of 'disobeying the man of God' and 'walking too close to the world'.
God bless Steve Pixler and use him mightily to reach many souls with the saving gospel of Jesus Christ!
