I'm replying to you. You are like an individual who beats his wife and claims it was her fault you did it. Don, this is how this works. You post, someone will reply. If it takes miles and miles of posting to get your thoughts out, it was due to the guy replying to your religious lunacy which is just as long. Especially if points need to be made. Don, own your own behavior. You see the bad thing about pious religiosity is that the religious pious can't ever be wrong. It ends up that everyone else around them has caused the problems on why they do what they do. Then when their opposition just leaves them alone, they count it as victory, and a job well done. No one is converted and no one is saved. Which actually, they don't care. Because it's just about a body count, not about Jesus or His kingdom.

Don, you just want the opposition to shut up. In your mind you don't want debate, discussion, or anything close to an answer. You just want an echo chamber. You want everyone to sit around you just like little birds with all mouths open wide. Mirroring your thoughts. I have cover all the issues in this thread. But, you couldn't care less, because you want to be the holy bud nipper. All the time wanting everyone but yourself to "do better."

And your efforts to make my conclusions to be as just described by you, have yet to be seen with proofs and logical conclusions. When will you learn that 'just saying so' doesn't mean it is so. What granola crunching hippy influences in your life leads to your making such weak efforts, lacking reason? Give readers greater hopes than this, which show greater understandings of scripture which you as an Evangelist should portray.

Again, all you want is for us to see you as an ecclesiastical Tony Stark. Ready to lead us to a more perfect day.

The contending is to those who come from the outside to invade the inside of the church family. You know, the wolves in sheep's clothing coming in among the sheep. The job of the shepherds, under the guidance of the master Shepherd. To expose the wolves and drive them out. You would have us believe that the wolves should be petted and fed. You see, it's the job of the wolves to convince the sheep, that the sheep dogs and the Shepherd really don't have their best interest in mind. They don't want the sheep to be free, or think for themselves. But that the wolves really want the best for the sheep. Don, no minister who doesn't agree with you is going to let you drive the bus. It just isn't happening. The more you make arguments by twisting the scripture, or pushing your Inclusionist agenda, just makes it harder for you to be fellowshipped. Also, if you are starting an Absolom ministry within the congregation, you will end up winning a one way ticket to disfellowship.

You are eating out of stale boxes of "Wheaties" when fresh food is available to give clearer reasoning. Do you need a donation so you can buy good food?

Don, I have no problem with any verse or book of the Bible. I do have a problem with how you interpret the scriptures and apply them to real life. Yet, that is why no pastor would allow you in their church family to have a word serving position. You believe the presiding minister over a church family and his position on a teaching is an attack of Satan. That's problematic. because for starters their name is on the lease to the building. All those nice people on the pews look towards the elders as their leadership. Not you, you are supposed to be with them. Yet, you want to turn things in your favor by claiming that you are contending for the faith once delivered unto the saints? While you charge the pulpit, and the elders of the "hypothetical" congregation? How's that turning out for you? My boy, it gets cold up in Canada? I guess you can have a snow shovel ministry, to clear a path so you can preach and teach the birds. Because thinking that Jude applies to you attacking the ESTABLISHED leadership on a congregation is a battle which your twisted teaching can't and won't survive.
