Okay, dude, kindly show me where I ever was against LIBERTY!!! I simply don't believe that the Holy Ghost gives me LICENSE to do as I please. True liberty gives me the freedom to live separate from the sinfulness of this world, and have a relationship with Jesus.

See thats what burns me up about you guys...you make a bunch or rules...manuals, creeds, dogmas and dare label them "holiness".

Again, I would like for you to show me where I have created, or even referred to, any particular 'rule book' or 'manual'. I reference God's Word, and for some reason, that seems to trouble you.

Then those of us that refuse to be subjected to your control of people...you call it me me and flesh and carnailty

MY control of people? Puleeze! I am happy to have control of my dog, thank you, and have no desire to 'control' anybody else. Not my job. I call your apparent lauding of righteousness fellowshipping with unrighteousness as something of God, when the scripture is plain that these things ought not so to be, for what it is: wrong. When THAT is what you call liberty, THAT is what I (through Biblical study) call carnal license.

Quote:

I call it my God given right to live my life for the kingdom of God without you trying to be my conscience, convictions and Lord!

Whoa, now, dude, before you suffer an apoplectic stroke! Wherever do you get the notion that I would even wish to be your conscience? I can almost hear the tantrum of a gradeschooler: "You're not the boss of me!!!!"

Quote:

I call it my God given right to live in a way that pleases my Jesus without your stupid rules.

Again, please show me the 'rules' that I am supposedly trying to 'force' upon you.

Quote:

I wonder...who is really the one in bondage here???

I would venture to say it is you, friend, because you are seemingly so quick to throw a virtual hissy fit if you think somebody might be telling you something you are doing is wrong.

Quote:

My Pastor said it best today in church.....Standards are NOT Holiness!!!

Your pastor is absolutely correct. BTW, I would also like for you to show me where I have ever equated 'standards' with holiness?

Quote:

And he added...

For those of you that want to be a Pharisee.....grade on a curve!

And your point is?

Quote:

And yes he is UPCI and a presbyter!

And again I ask, your point is?

Seriously, though, your unchurched state continues to be a subject of my prayers.

Wow! All this time I thought plenty of people in Indiana went to church! What about Calvary Tabernacle and Cheezeheads church? Don't they count?

You think Indiana is unchurched...Oregon takes wonderful family restaurants (Waddles) and turns them into Hooters!

No doubt! How is it you are so in the know about the appearance of Hooters in Oregon? Oh, wait, don't tell me: they have great wings! Yeah, that's what it is, the wings!!!

Sadly, there is another Hooters restaurant, right near downtown Beaverton, in fact, it is right across the road from City Hall and the police station. There was actually a little radio news blurb a couple of years ago, telling about how the Beaverton police chief made it policy that none of his employees were allowed to visit that establishment while on the clock.
