1 | Avoid Curtis Neeley's web site!!!!! | Rom 14:14 | Aixen7z4 | 149558 | ||
And do not touch the wet paint. Better not to draw attention with a prohibition, I think. It may serve the opposite purpose. Sin, taking occasion by the commandment, wreaks all manner of concupiscence. For I was alive without the law once: but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died. I know, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing unclean of itself: but to him that esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to him it is unclean. It is good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor any thing whereby thy brother stumbleth, or is offended, or is made weak. Hast thou faith? Have it to thyself before God. Happy is he that condemneth not himself in that thing which he alloweth. And he that doubteth is damned if he eat, because he eateth not of faith: for whatsoever is not of faith is sin. for whatsoever is not of faith is sin. |

I think everyone agrees it is not good for someone to receive or place enticements into pornography, especially at a Christian space such as this forum. What you might consider is the possibility that the information you provided might have served, unintentionally, to spark an interest in that type of material, and might have actually enabled a reader to locate it. Thus, in an attempt to dissuade him, you may have actually enabled him to find the material. As you said, “One or two that might go to (that) web site and get hooked …”. Clearly, you did not initiate the topic. You were responding to the fact something had been posted that was undesirable, and potentially harmful. The intent was good. But some of us think it would have been better if you had mentioned the infraction without giving any particulars about it. Better yet, the forum could have been managed in such a way that the material could be intercepted and not allowed to appear on the forum in the first place. Otherwise, it could have been erased. As you said, “(The) note with the web site address needs to be removed”. But that would require the recognition and empowering of monitors. Unfortunately, (In the opinion of some of us, it is unfortunate) the idea has not been accepted by those who run this site. Apparently, the remedy is to act, not against undesirable material, but against users who persist in violating the guidelines of the forum. Meanwhile, it is possible that some irreparable harm has been done. I think the person who did the posting should be admonished (with passages such as Romans 14:21) to not impose his views on what is acceptable, and in a sense the actual materials, on the rest of us. He should have been made aware that he might be inducing some weak ones to sin. Unfortunately, some of us do not listen, and we must be left alone (Hosea 4:17) but some of our postings need to be edited or erased (as in 1 Corinthians 5:7). But as it is, they are allowed to stand, apparently. It is possible that some posters realize this and use the opportunity to do their mischief. The suggestion to you is that you may have been an unwitting aide in the scheme. Just think about it. We could have discussed the matter without giving cues that might have led someone to view the material in question. Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things. |
