First, the person writing to the News Paper does not have any idea as to what they are talking about. Second neither does the person publishing the editorial. There is not one single thing you can say in answer to these accusations. The Evil has been poured out of the cup, it cannot be put back. That is like a Judge in a court room telling the jury to disregard what the what the defense attorney has just said. Is there anything known about the person writing to the News Paper? Are these writings signed? What is this persons AGENDA? Lastly, Christians need to understand that We cannot Legislate Morals. This is a corrupt immoral WORLD. If you answer this list of accusations, Satan will only come up with another batch. This just seems like one of those times of persecution that Our Lord was talking about. Bless You in your fight KcabmI4 |

Hello KcabmI4 I agree with you that the person writing to the paper doesn't have a clue. But neither do the ones who are reading his blather. Many who have unformed opinions will agree with him. You asked what was the agenda, There it is. The sad part is, you can't unring a bell. Yes, the words have been unleashed, and whatever damage is done, our Lord knows. But there is something you can say to answer him. We are not defeated. You said if we answer him, satan will only bring more. Exactly. That is our service in this world, and our service will be judged in the refiner's fire. I once wrote a reply to a local column by Joel NcNally, and the paper published it. My reply was longer than his original column, and I prayed over my submission, that my bell would ring louder than his. I felt I had done my part. Most of the other times that Joel raised my ire, I let my fellow christians know about it, and that accomplished nothing. Is anything known about the author, you ask? No, and it does not matter. His name is printed as Solmon Smith,and he is just one in a long line, prowling about while serving the enemy, who seeks out whom he may destroy. Remember, "we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high [places]. " (Eph 6:12) The only way to defeat this foe is by using the Word of God. It was the only weapon used by Jesus in Matt 4, when the tempter came to him after a 40 day fast, In an attempt to lure Jesus into sin, said, "If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread" Jesus simply answered, "It is written...." -to all 3 powerful enticements, and satan was defeated. So as Solomon Smith said in his published letter, "Can Christians be any more clueless about what the bible says? This is the fault of Christians, not Mr. Smith. We as the Lord's servants are ordered to "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." (2 Tim 2:15) And the Old Testament Command: "And these words which I command you today shall be in your heart. "You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up. "You shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. "You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates. (Deu 6:6-9) This is how we must answer people like Smith who call us "shallow" as he proclaims,"The truth is human decency and compassion are what guide us in following the universal law of love. It comes from the heart." We as Christians know "The heart [is] deceitful above all [things], and desperately wicked: who can know it?" Jer 17:9 So, we must be diligent in our studies. Thank God for forums such as this, where we can fortify ourselves against these relentless onslaughts. God Bless, and Bless God! keliy P.S. if, as you say, we are unable to legislate morality, then lets take all police officers of the force, because they are wasting taxpayer's money. |
