1 | What constitutes 'abuse' on the forum? | Acts 17:11 | gracefull | 94724 | ||
"Isn't that the definition of a cult, a group that claims superior knowledge, revelation or understanding over the rest of Christiandom?" Maybe, I do not specialize in 'cult hunting'. My statement does not claim superior knowledge to the rest of Christiandom. I claim the right to believe SCRIPTURE as revealed by the Holy Spirit ABOVE the established 'orthodox theology'. Please notice I did not SAY what you SAID that WOF claims superior knowledge.... I SAID, " "The problem IS, you can't prove your position because you can't listen without emotions and attitude getting in the way,". Did I say I have superior knowledge? No, I said "attitude and emotions are getting in the way of your(Darcy and you Ed) being able to PRESENT a clear explanation to the contray..." Did I say the position I took was CORRECT and yours was INCORRECT? No, I said you can't present a clear POSITION TO THE CONTRARY. And that WOF believers study opposing views without fear, thus the term Bereans. In plain English, the previous restricted thread ended with me presenting a position for discussion and both you and Darcy exiting abruptly behind your 'theological position'. This does not produce a good Bible study atmosphere for GROWTH. If you truly believe WOF is so terribly bad, you should work harder at proving it wrong scripturally. Your posts of animosity against the teaching and teachers and sarcasm does nothing but gender strife and create an insecure environment for study. What student is going to ask hard questions when they FEAR ridicule and rejection? I hope the other members of the forum get the courage to discourge sternly such behaviour in the future. Otherwise people who really need guidance will not remain here. Only the easy ones who are agreeable will remain. Knowledge of the person and will of God is readily available to ALL Christians in personal relationship with God. Please read my EXIT statement for a better understanding of this statement. God bless |

Graceful Once again you said "The problem IS, you can't prove your position because you can't listen without emotions and attitude getting in the way, and your attitude prevents you from being able to present a clear Biblical explanation to the contrary... And they CAN...We are not fearful to hear but rather trust the Holy Spirit to lead us. WOF are excellent Bereans because they value the Word of God above theology and church doctrines." That is a claim of superior knowledge. You have the ability which I do not possess and that is to be able listen without emotions or theology or church doctrine. In effect WOF have successfully learned to free themselves of all the prejudices that taint the rest of us from seeing it their way. That I think is a claim to superior knowledge. Isn't that what you said? EdB |
