21 | I need to know if this is a cult? | Titus | userdoe214 | 8368 | ||
Dear donnag, Your letter struck me much like if it had been a girl writing a question like this: I'm having problems with my boy friend, she wants to have sex before marriage. Quite naturally I would want to deal with the gender issue before premarital sex. I've been in a few 6 membered churches and it was very good, because it was so much like a family. Now if your church is not close and people cannot get along with the pastor, that is not normal. Possibly there is more than a small problem with the very nature of your congregation's authority structure. I don't want to say a woman cannot be a pastor, for I have read some convencing arguments for the possibility of women in governing authority, but you must admit it's not an easy argument to support with Scripture. So if it's not working, just move on. You don't have to call it a cult, or even say they are wrong; just find that place where your heart says family. mrk |

22 | Mark, Are you saying you interpet dreams | Titus | userdoe214 | 8654 | ||
I cannot interpret dreams and cannot answer all you're questions. So I'll answer your question with a question: Do not interpretations belong to God? (Gen. 40:8) mrk |

23 | Please explain to me? | Titus | userdoe214 | 8662 | ||
Sorry about that EdB, And I really am sorry about that harsh post. I quit answering all other postings than donnag's because I was only concerned about her. I hope that they keep this little branch of the forum off the main board so we can talk in as much detail as you please. When I read that dream I realized she was holding a poison snake and needed to be warned in no uncertain terms--but without coming right out and saying it in a panicked tone. I've recently moved to the DC area, but for years I lived in a place which has much occult attack on the churches. Many of the believers of that town have a strange closeness even though we attended many different congregations. As a result of our community wide camaraderie and constant encounters with the world of darkness we developed many conflict skills which I am discovering are not common in other communities. There is a reason why I did not want donnag to go into more details, for it seemed pretty obvious that the personal problems were stemming from the spiritual (demonic) problems. So I wanted to stick with the solution to the problem, rather than dealing with extraneous problems, and I assumed (wisely or no, I cannot judge) that the solution to her problem was to follow the Lord out of a dark situation. By the way I was not countering everything you said, for I quit reading what anyone else said but donnag. So if you reread all that I wrote after my last letter to you I had only one thought in my mind; to answer donnag as best as I could. Later I did read through them all, and was most amazed by JVH's letter. After that I thought it best to drop the subject all together. mrk |
