1 | Is God in absolut contrl over all things | Acts 4:24 | John Reformed | 61844 | ||
Dear Sir Pent, I did not mean to imply that your statement was actually unclear. But my desire was to show that it was percieved to say something other than your intended meaning. I am on a mission to warn people to read and reread posts that they recieve from each other and to assertain the intended meaning of the "Poster" before they proceed to reply to that particular post. It may require a sub-post asking for clarification. I believe if we practised this discipline that many of us would avoid fights and wounded feelings. Neither one edifies the church or glorifies God. For instance: You said: "Dear John, You took one sentance from my post out of the context that it was in and then claimed that its meaning was unclear". Your statement could be taken as a straightforward remark or as a rebuke insinuating a deliberate deeption on my part. I took it in the former sense because our posts have been polite and not contentious. But if on the other hand we had been engaged in a hot debate it could easily be recieved in the latter sense.

2 | Is God in absolut contrl over all things | Acts 4:24 | Sir Pent | 61867 | ||
Personal Note ...................................... Dear John, Sounds like a good mission. There are obviously limitations to any conversation that can only be carried out with the written word. Lacking tone of voice, body language, facial expression, etc. can often make interpretation difficult. It is therefore very important that we all dilligently try to "assertain the intended meaning" of posts before responding. You make a great point. ................................................ P.S. Having started on this forum over a year ago, I am glad that I can say, "to the best of my knowledge I have never been in a hot debate with anyone here". |

Dear Sir Pent, The Lord has indeed favored you. I must return to work for now, but I promise to go over our lonely little thread and see if I can find a place to begin in regard to your original proposition. God Bless, John |
