The Bible says Iron shapens Iron...why?? Because they don't give in to one another...

Rev, tolerance doesn't mean we have to walk together in every area, but it does mean there is respect.
Separation CAN build strength but it can also build arrogance...balance is the key here, IMHO...

Now brother, I understand what you are saying, but I don't necessarily agree.
NOTE: that was a statement of tolerance

Renda.. I may not agree with everybody here.. but for the most part I do my best to be respectful... and that is why folks who choose this route can remain friends and walk parallell vs. together on some things... imo..

Thank you, RevRandy. We are not going to change each other. We just need to skip over a post that we don't agree with if it irritates us so much. I've made mistakes, but I'm trying to do better. I stop posting on standards threads. lol
