1 | Is this a sin to do | Ex 21:6 | Sang_Phleg | 113108 | ||
Wow. Hot coals? I'm not sure. My intent was RESOLUTION -- a truce. Not making you the bad guy. I was not trying to say you were the bad guy at all. Wow. My Home Church leader has a great point when he says "email is a BAD medium for conflict resolution." You just can't hear the person's voice influctions or see their body language to discern their intent. - black lettering on a white screen is too cold. Ok... Let's try this - because I HATE UNRESOLVED CONFLICT! And because I really do agree with Pent's statement that we are essentially saying the same thing from different angles. I agree WHOLE HEARTEDLY with this statement you just made: Well it gets my hackles up when people ignore the obvious object lessons that are in the Bible by taking the stand, "well this particular problem is not mentioned in the Bible so I guees it isn't a problem to be conerned with." AMEN and AMEN! I couldn't agree more. if you thought that was what I was trying to accomplish... no wonder we are in this debate. That is NOT at ALL what I was trying to say or do. That was a complete misunderstanding. I am VERY aware that the Bible gives MANY lessons that do not need to be spelled out exactly. The Trinity would be the perfect example of that truth (although it is not a moral lesson - instead, it is a character truth about our God). I am familiar with the verses about sinning against your conscience.... and about committing sin because you did something NOT out of FAITH.... etc. etc. I am familiar with many moral edicts God's Word gives that fit issues today, but don't use the exact wording. I agree with you here! We simply disagree about whether or not the simple FACT that a person has a tatoo or a piercing MEANS they intended sin when they did it. -- Or when they are considering doing it. I believe sometimes the intent CAN be very wrong. No doubt. I just would not assume that all tatooed or pierced people were in that camp. And THAT'S what I thought YOU were trying to say. Maybe that's where I misunderstood YOU. Are we on the same wavelength at all now? |

Sang I'm sorry for my outburst and I want to apologize. I have felt I have been defending myself from you taking what I said that twisting and turning it to make me look like an ogre that drives people from their churches. To me it seemed everytime I said something you took what I said out of context or twisted it to make me out as an intolerant oaf. EdB |
