Re: Open Letter to All

When people say they haven't changed over decades makes me doubt they are seeking truth.

Do you teach "perfect" truth? Please answer me...yes or no.
"Please answer... yes or no" almost triggered an AFF-based, PTSD like reaction.

Why seek truth when you are confident you have the truth?

Congratulations on having arrived.

REALLY?!


He's not saying he's arrived.
He's saying he is settled on what he believes.

MAYBE SE is trying to be like God (Malachi 3:6). Now that would be a novel concept, huh?

Have you followed the Bible in your bringing up your grievances with this Elder?

There IS a BIBLICAL way to address grievances one might have with an Elder in the faith.

Did Epley follow the Bible in addressing his grievances with Pixler?

Two wrongs never make one right. My Mom told me that when I was a kid.
