Re: blocking

Pastor of the first church I attended had this attitude too. Grateful others didn't....

How do you suppose someone gets from not accepting God's word to accepting it? Or from not believing it to believing it? I doubt that happens during conversation with others who don't believe. Seems much more likely to happen during conversation with those who believe.

But there is no way to deal with an individual who will not accept God's Word.

Not going to waste my time and energy. When I was younger I would have but not now.

As I said I can deal with those who disagree with me on the Word (though they are wrong) but someone who does not believe the bible I will not deal with. So go ahead and stone me but that is the way it is.

You mean through arguing?

Apostolic is defined on AFF as:


  1. There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
  2. The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
  3. Every sinner must repent of their sins.
  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.

Not what I meant, but I'll admit it's probably true sometimes.
