Bible Note: Dear Sister Val, Oh my, dear Sister, I, having been raised in a family of eight unruly children, and a mother and father, that, along with the children, solved most of their problems by hitting and yelling, I think I would know the earmarks of an argument better then most. However, I don't see any of those marks on Doc! He is one of the most kind, and patient, and loving men I've ever had the pleasure of knowing in my entire life! He is a wonderful teacher, and strives always to present the Word of God, as the Scripture presents it. Of course he isn't always in the right, but my dear Sister, you would do very well indeed, to pay very close attention to what he is trying to teach you, and not have an attitude of giving out whatever, and letting the viewer decide what the Word says. That is how false doctrine gets its start, just like yeast, it only takes a little bit. Please consider what I have said to you is in all love and truth. Blessings to you Sister Val, I for one am very glad to have you here at the forum, your posts by and large have been very good. Thank you. God bless John |
