Bible Note: Coffee, some people on the forum like to use the Word of God as a sledgehammer. It appears that Mr. Reformer Joe may be one of these people. I have noticed from most of his posts that he views those he responds to as opponents rather than people who are seeking a better understanding of Christ. This type of personality very rarely sees the problem with his approach. This personality type also tends to be very defensive when being rebuked, no matter how lovingly it is stated and intended. As you and several other members have pointed out, it is not what is being said, but how it is said that causes people to flee. When personalities such as Mr. Joe are involved in a thread I am reading, I attempt to ignore the implied acidity with which the point is being made and glean what the Holy Spirit is saying through the personality. Hope this helps. In Christ, Estelle For those who are like Mr. Joe and prefer points backed with Scripture, please study Gal. 6:1-10, Col. 3:12-17, and 1 John 4:7-12. Thank you. |
