Re: Dropped By & Somewhat Dismayed But Not Surpris

Well I thought I would stay out of this, but I do have a word or two. Probably not from God, but from me. Everything we say is not from God and He sure gets blamed for a lot of which He had nothing to do.

Ron, I have read every post on this particular subject. I don't know you, have no bones to pick with you, but just let me say 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?

I also have a question for you. 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?

You seemed to find fault with everyone on this post except tv1 and you did not hesitate to take each of them to task. Yet, you may not have known all the facts about each of them. It's apparent that God did not reveal to you that "Areyouready" wasn't a man. You can't say anything about TB but you can sure butcher anyone that says anything about him. Maybe if he had said some things about what had gone on and what was going on others would have no room to say anything then.

Again, I ask you the question, "have you EVER talked about someone," without knowing all the facts? If you have then you are surely manifesting the characteristics of a hypocrite on all of your post here. And, if AFF is so bad, why would God let you come on here? You better be careful, He might kill you! If God destroyed that little mother and her baby in a horrible car accident, (especially the baby) what kind of God is He. And believe me, I'm not a novice, I grew up in a church that had destruction prophesied for everyone that might even think different than the pastor. (And by the way, I didn't win my pastor to the Lord.) Please forgive my sarcasm but I think you are so wrong in so many ways, (and I'm by no means perfect, myself.)

I hope you don't manifest your "self-righteous...holier than thou" attitude outside the church, because I believe the Bible did say have a good report of them that are without and I don't know of anyone that likes to be put down that way.

Well, I'm sure I've said too much, and "don't know all the facts," but I hope you have a good day.

Ron,

I'm beginning to see the root of the problem......you're reading words that aren't there!

And, not quite sure what you mean by "If he had of kept quiet, stayed Philosopher".....maybe that's what Abe Lincoln meant when he said "Better to keep one's mouth shut and be thought a fool than open it and remove all doubt".......

Been Thinin, thanks for your input & your comments which are duly noted.
One question is all I am asking, do you see anything Biblical or that will be productive in putting forth the thread in question?

You misread MP's post and responded to something he didn't even say. I have yet to see you even acknowledge your mistake.

Let alone answer questions directly....

Uh Missbratified, I got his post he accused me of arrogance & attitude did he not?
I find that a very convienent dodge from the issue at hand and that includes self righteous & the rest.

I keep asking the same question as have others & it really gets tiring to be repeating questions & posting scripture that others do not get.
This is a serious issue with eternal consequences.
I am not going to play the, "gotch game" with you or any others, which by the way, doesn't even apply here.

Ron, there is no correct answer because what might be facts and discussion to one is gossip and talebearing to someone like yourself.
