It actually does apply, because unless you abide by your own principles, you don't have room to talk to anyone else about them. Ergo, people do have a right to ask you questions to make sure you're consistent if you're going to yell at them about what they're doing.

Duly noted... but not answered.

Again, how about answering this one.......
• Have you EVER talked to anyone on the phone about someone who had sinned and will admit that you did so without knowing all the facts? Do you suppose that person that you were talking to may have repeated what you said to someone else? The internet is wrong for this but the phone is okay?

Does this not matter to you?
• ......... you come across as a "self-righteous, better than thou, most holy and righteous gift to man." You had to tell us 2 or 3 times that your pastor, "who you won to the Lord" .... what does that have to do with anything in this discussion?

One question is all you're asking???? Sure took a lot of post to ask that one question! And by the way, what was that question?

So what of the people who will be paying to hear him at the renewal conference? Since this should only be "handled" quietly at the local level with a broom and rug, should they be blissfully ignorant of all of this? I think they might want to know. Does this local-church-rule apply to evangelists who speak at a national level? Just want to be clear.

Look, I for an example, say I am arrogant, & self righteous (which not everyone is calling me that but that is irelevent) is what I said Biblically correct, or have any validity that this isn't going to help this matter any?

As for consistency, please pull get your Internet forum sleuths where I said, Bro ______ is a ______ pick your own definition.

I find the fact that saints of the Church in question by CC1'S own posting have asked him to post this most "important information" & by my own accounts there is still an investigation ongpoing & there is a rebuttal of the "facts" at hand.

There probably is more to this than just one side & I still beleive the thread in question is nothing more than a glorified Thad column with much far reaching consequences.

BTW, when talking with gays and you disagree with their life style, the accusation is made, "you Christians are self righteous & bigots" so just making that accusation does nothing but try to deflect attention away from the real issue at hand.

No, Ron, I never accused you of arrogance ... I was trying to have a logical discussion with you that was fact based, and you responded with an personal insult directed toward my reading skills, or more appropriately, lack thereof....what I SAID was that YOUR words revealed more about your attitude than my ignorance........meaning that it was very clear that you weren't interested in discussing issues, but were more interested in insulting me personally to try and prove your point.

Another motto I try to live by? "Rudeness is the weak man's attempt at strength". Hence, I try to be kind and courteous to everyone, even when I am disagreeing with them. I find it to be much more effective, and it also doesn't leave me with that sick feeling that I've stooped to the base elements of human interaction.
