Um don't think it will fit that big head of yours Lar............
Hey tell your wife I am going hat buying next week, and will be thinking of her.
I still have the one she bought for me and it is still my favorite.

When I first started on FCF a long, long time ago (it seems!), I admit that I found Bro Epley to be offensive at times. But the more I read his posts, the more I found that he speaks his mind, but he does so out of love and concern for the souls of those he is speaking to.
He and I may not agree on alot of things. But I can appreciate and respect the fact that he is not arguing just for the sake of being "right". He says what he says because he knows that eternity is at stake and the love that he feels for the souls of men and women compells him to reach out to them. There is nothing wrong with that!
There are others here who speak their minds, but are not offensive about it. Because they care! People like Ferd, and Steve Hoover, and Barb and Texas Granny and Michael Phelps and Pressing On and............................ Sooooooooo many others! There are really only a few whose posts I read with a huge grain of salt. Those names I will never share because there is a big part of me that wants to believe that all of us who come here, come for honorable reasons.

Re: Brother Epley an example for all of us.
I agree- Br. Epely is a real example to us, along with many others on the forum. There is a way to state your beliefs, without being offensive, some do it with kindness, some with humor and some with temper it with wisdom. The scripture can be used to cut away unnecessary things in our lives, and it can be used to cut someone to ribbons. We need to be careful.

Re: Brother Epley an example for all of us.
Yeah
If Bro. Epiley ever comes to preach in Hot Springs, I will go to hear him (Lord willing).

No real problem exists over the use of "The Name" in everthing else done in the Church. Why then should there exist great controversy over the use of the "The Name of the Godhead" in water baptism?

Re: Brother Epley an example for all of us.
I agree Bro. Epley is great to have around here!
Another name that comes to my mind is Sis. Alvear - - - talk about non-offensive!!

Re: Brother Epley an example for all of us.
I am just not reading this right I guess since I am clueless however it is all right to say and do whatever you want as long as you say you don't do it to hurt anyone.
I think that is exactly how everyone wishes it really was.
Bro. Epley is a great poster and am in no way taking shots at him.
Just couldn't keep out of this one!

Re: Brother Epley an example for all of us.
You can say anything you want to say IF you know how to say it. We are talking about how a person does not have to be rude and cruel when stating differences.
