No, I won't be responding to issues of dogma and doctrine. Everytime I respond to someone's query I get "But..." Which means folks are not so much interested in my answers as they are showing me how misguided they think I am. [True Listening: Listening with the intent to understand rather than the intent to form a response.] So I give up. Hope you don't mind too much. I'm really having a difficult time swallowing the fact that only Hank asked what I believe. It's your right to think I'm wrong and I won't have any problem with it. You don't know me. You don't know the church I attend. You don't know the clergy I adore. If you did, you would rejoice! Has the Holy Spirit washed over my whole life? YOU BET! I'll never tell you you're misguided or essential teachings have been left out of your Christian life. How can I know that unless I know you? God speaks to us individually. I sincerely believe that. Which is why we have so many differences in our Christianity. Have you ever read books by Patsy Clairmont? She is fantastic. She talked about a fear of flying once and her friend came up with this passage from Obadiah: "Who can bring me down to the ground?" So she was content knowing she was in the hands of the Lord. Then another flyer in her church group mentioned (upon de-planing) that her bible said "Who will plummet you to the ground?" Her quip being the Lord even knows what version of the bible you should be reading. Much Love, Lisa |

Lisamarie I know I have never read a more profound statement on this forum than the one you made in the first three paragraphs of this response. I think each and everyone of us need to take what you said to heart and let it be the foundation of any response we make on this forum. Your truly a special person with a sweet nature. EdB |

Thank you Ed, It was not my intention to be profound. Only to politely bow out. Sometimes I read my own posts and wonder who wrote that? Maybe lithium is in order. [wink] Lisa |
