Dear Tremere123, May I offer an observation to your comments? I don't think that there was any direct attempt to "kick you out", "attack you" or "berate". Your own statement in your user profile belies the challenge:"I think this site is very useful in helping us work out our theories and confusion about Scripture". By far the majority of us are not here to work out our "theories".I most certainly hold a very high view of scripture, along with others.(2 Tim.3:16-17) Theorizing has very little if anything to do with the Word of God- if one is a believer! (2 Tim. 2:15) The case for citing and providing a scriptural basis for your questions should be self-evident.(Acts 17:11)It helps you to lay a proper foundation and for Forum members to better understand where you're coming from. It boils down to being an effective communicator. To avoid being misunderstood, one should be as specific and detailed as possible. New believers are very welcome and are given solid answers with years of wisdom behind them. As James writes "But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him." Interaction with other solid believers can provide both wisdom and valuable perspective. Speaking the Truth In Love, BradK |

2 | Praise the Lord! | Exodus | tremere123@comcast.net | 67878 | ||
I was reported to the owner of the forum and sent an Advisory Notice...How can you say the majority here is not here to work out their theories? There are people with questions about biblical matters...some don't necessitate scripture but a person with biblical knowledge to explain to them in laymen terms the answer...which I call...my theory, my belief, my opinion...even if I do give ch. and verse I may say that it is my understanding of that verse and, in essence, giving out the ch. and verse to answer a question... you are actually giving your own opinion of what that verse means....we all do not agree because we are not all on the same spiritual level...that's why some ask more and some answer more...Does this not make sense to anyone? I can be very specific and detailed without giving ch. and verse...but okay! I see he importance of it here...I, too, hold a very high view of Scripture and hate that I have to defend that here...I don't have enough years of wisdom I guess. Sister |

Dear tremere123, I sincerely appreciate the honesty in explaining your challenges in conveying your beliefs. Sometimes it's not easy to transfer your thoughts into written statements. I might suggest following the dialoge on the Forum to learn- and feel free to ask questions:-) How can I say that "the majority here is not here to work out their theories?" Well, first of all I would not use the word "theory". To me, a theory is an assumption based on limited information or knowledge, a conjecture. The Bible on the other hand is inerrant truth! (John 17:17) and inspired of God (2 Tim. 3:16). We are here primarily to seek further understanding of the Word and to convey its' established truths. Speaking the Truth In Love, BradK |
