I have friends that DO attend things and take part in things that ARE mixed bathing.

I have friends that their wives DO trim their hair and DO wear modest makeup and DO cover up zits!

I have MANY friends that listen mainy to Country music

I have MANY..MANY friends that have tv sets in their homes....and they do not preach against tv. ...AND those that don't have dvd's of tv shows.

Can you really call them "friend" if they knowingly lie?

Just a thought

I kinda knew that some would point this out...And Yes they are my friends....

BUT...I will say my respect for them does suffer.

Not at all mad you pointed this out....just sad that I had to show this as examples.

NLYP,

I'm not certain I want to be one of YOUR friends...it seems you do an excellent self-serving job of analyzing others for YOUR own benefit and purposes...maybe you might want to give some thought to praying for, loving and nurturing Jesus Christ in YOUR life and theirs.

Otherwise, all this "much ado about nothing" and simplistic thinking is for no avail...any Heavy Hitter could expose YOUR shallow thinking in about 5 scriptural references ("I can name that tune in 4 notes!!")

I am really sorry you feel that way.....you missed my whole point, I guess.
My point was not to be "self serving" at all.....it was to show that IF one is going to get called a liar over one thing the AS adresses...then how can other things be less dishonest?

My life is an open book....the difference between me and others is....I do what I do and dont hide it....I truly believe God respects that more then a hidden second lifestyle.

Again sorry if your misunderstood the post....

Simple question...

PLUS....that was NOT an analyzing of just others...I enjoy many of those things myself.....the difference is I did not mention their names but will mention my own.

Why is it that all you guys believe everyone is offended by what you say!! It's really unbelievable...this is a forum site...people say what we want, believe, want others to believe, what they believe others want them to say,etc., etc...I promise you, I'm not offended by your post...just perplexed at its simplistic approach...

Oh, thanks for the PM...very sweet and juvenile...was it from a family album??

OOOK....your spirit is screaming loudly....

Simplistic approach is what Christianity is all about......"Except they be as little children".

It requires a simple answer......Still dont see where the scriptures are you promised...

Your right...my pm was sweet.....its called trying to be respectful.

Sorry if you are not used to that.
