1 | Love, faith, hope - this is what counts. | Matt 28:19 | roviear | 56515 | ||
To join the "fray", I believe all of us understand that it is very human to a) feel "attacked" when our views and or beliefs prove to be wrong, and b) take up for the underdog in a Good Samaritan type role. a) I do not know of anyone who is able to withstand criticism for things or beliefs he holds dear, usually because of pride (yes, I admit, I speak from experience). However, if we remember that the "attacks" are not a form of persecution but instead are loving correction, then we will greatly benefit from this forum. b) Many times it is easy to get involved in the middle of threads, especially when responding to an old post (I don't know how many times I've gone to respond or ask further questions only to notice that the post is a month old, which is, what, equal to 10 years in real time? ;-). I agree that we should be mindful of how we sound when we are responding, for our emotions cannot be known by the reader. It also helps to pray before responding to ensure that what we say is the Lord's response. No matter who gets involved (at one point, this forum had hari krishnas trying to confuse and befuddle and now it seems we may have some confused JWs searching for the Light), the Truth will win in the end. In Christ (and with much prayer!), Estelle |
