So you think that what you said you would teach to your YOUTH that you lead?

This is called premeditated murder not self-defense. I know that you were just acting the cowboy here, but Sister what you said was wrong. Was this the truth? Do you and your husband say this to people who get angry with you all? You have the nerve to say something about my family and myself?

Remember what you said Sister, you would DO IT...WITHOUT HESITATION.

DT, you need to talk to the youth leader. Maybe you couldn't speak to her.
She posted this on the thread;

Please, respect is earned DT, and all this tough guy macho mess is sickening.
We are Apostolics, holiness, followers of Jesus Christ, and your youth leader is bragging about having her husband set some guy up to meet his gun-toting wife at their front door? Who's youth is this Sister leading? I don't know her? I see what she was writing. It's pretty clear to me and some others that it's pretty unorthodox behavior for a preacher, let alone a female preacher.

DT, don't defend her actions she is wrong.

Respect IS earned. More irony. Also, the "tough guy macho" stuff...are you saying this of everyone or just this woman? Is it ok for men to put on the tough guy macho act too? Because I see nothing but verbal posturing going on and hardly the meek and humble discussions of someone that does not have the tough guy macho mas macho attitude.

unorthodox behavior for a preacher...yes more irony...lol

I saw you disappear after Brother Matthew challenged you. We were given a rest. You have a problem with me then deal with it in a PM. I’ve gone round and round with you and it goes nowhere. Why? Because of your constant PROJECTING of your own behavior on others. IRONY? Please.

Brother Matthew tagged you quick and you shrank away and that told me allot.

Brother Praxeas if you have nothing reasonable to present and just want to fight? Wouldn’t that be MORE IRONY? Walking contradiction Praxeas?

Actually I responded to him and saw that like you and L&F you were just repeating the same strawman arguments about how the bible speaks against retribution and I got tired of reminding the peanut gallery that we are not talking about retribution. Hows your left cheek brother? You thinking more clearly today?

If I were a Trinitarian I could say the same thing about your Jesus' name scriptures (assuming that you are Jesus' name). The issue is not that we use the same scriptures, but that we HAVE scriptures. Face it, you have NOT offered any. Maybe that is why our list bothers you so?

I always heard we are not to change God's Word, but we are to be changed by God's Word. In this case, if you can't beat it, you SHOULD join it!

If I was a poet I could recite poems...big deal?
Who changed God's word? Nobody. You guys quote where it speaks of retribution and nobody here has yet to claim retribution is ok.

Your list bothers nobody, because it's not relevant. It's just more red herring and strawman arguments.
