Mommapbs: So, I discerned correctly. You do have a problem with Rabbi Mark. And the problem stems from an inference that you feel that he made toward you with another Forum member. I haven't seen that you have this problem with any other members of the Forum. And you certainly haven't answered me in an unreasonable manner. I'm taking a long shot here, so please forgive me if I am wrong. But I'm just going by my male logic. Is part of the problem you have with Rabbi Mark is his being Jewish? I'm not accusing you of racism. I just want to know if this is a factor in the equation. After all the Jews did crucify Christ! Whether his Jewishness is a factor or not, I am impressed to hear that you do fear God. And that you have a great love for God. Because of this I would like to share with you the following scripture, "Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled;" Don't let your intimacy with God be spoiled by a root of bitterness over some implied accusation. Try to work it out with Rabbi Mark. I think its better to have him as a member of the team rather than cast him out because he implied something. Are you sure he meant to imply this? Sebkin |

Greetings Sebkin - there was no need for discernment, I have been open with my complaint of rabbi mark's offense and posted it to him. Racisim is an inapporpriate suggestion; and this truth I hold very dear to my heart: believers are all part of God's family. (Gal 3:28) Do you know that rabbi mark is Jewish? He has not revealed himself to this Forum (as of yet)via a personal profile. I suspect that here in lies the problem, (for me) rabbi means "teacher." How has rabbi mark taught me in his postings to me? Should one proclaim themselves to be a teacher of God's Word just because they have studied it or because this is the Spiritual Gift they have been given? Great accountability accompanies this "office" - not only for the content of the teaching but also how it is delivered. My the Lord's Spirit continue to teach us all here on the Forum. I commend to you 1 Cor 2:1-16. mommapbs |
