Subject: What Did Judas Do to be called Traitor?

Bible Note: PART ONE: You need to stop making guesses about my feelings that aren't true and making them public especially when you imply that I am unhappy with Lockman who is my host. THAT is where you have offended me and caused others to attack me based upon your lie. You brought undue attention upon me that was negative in nature. Jesus commanded us in what is called the Golden Rule of eye for eye to do to others as we want them to do to us. Shall I do to you what you have done to me? I would be perfectly in compliance with Christ's command and instruction. Would you appreciate that based upon your comments and replies that I think you are homosexual and make a supposition public on a forum such as this forum? Such a comment would bring undue attention to you, wouldn't it? You should be more careful with your mouth, that is, your keyboard for it reveals the content of your "heart." And if the content of your "heart" is to make comments that wrongly imply such and such about a Christian and member here, then that reveals the "heart" of a false accuser. The KJV word is "devil." Now, Jesus also gave command that if the one that offends me does not repent (not do it again) that I would be completely in compliance with the Lord's command and not forgive, and if not forgive, then there is no fellowship, for if you have a tendency to making false accusations and implications about a Christian and member then the Lord also instructs me to break interaction and fellowship until the offender brings their behavior into compliance with the Word (not forum guidelines for as a whole many "Christian" sites I have been at have guidelines that supersede and directly contradict God's Word in the behavior of God's people in private lives and in public.) Scripture does not teach us to give "blanket apologies." An offender must know exactly in what way they have offended so as to repent and not make the same offense again and quench the Holy Spirit's ministry of tempering the body together. So, now you know in what way you offended me and caused others to make further suppositions about my presence and character that were untrue. Surely a little leaven leavens the whole loaf. I came here and treated others good. I wanted to be treated good in return. My doctrinal positions are not denominational for I have no denomination. I prefer to be called a Biblical Christian for all my understanding iof the Bible comes from the Old and New Testament, the Holy Spirit, and myself. I would spend 16 hours a day (with sometimes lunch break if I wasn't fasting) at a table with my Bible and a Strong's and read under the anointing and many times hot tears roll down my cheeks as the Holy Spirit would use the very Word of God to cleanse and sanctify me, and this continued as I said 16 hours a day for roughly 9 months while I was being Biblically disciple. I stopped with commentaries many, many years ago because they would short-circuit my thinking and reasoning. I KNOW what I believe at many places does not square with traditional mainstream Christian thought, but when I come to such crossroads I prefer to trust what God may be speaking to me in that moment rather than parrot what others say the Scriptures say. Wasn't this the method of Martin Luther, and others in our historical Christian past? And I have been persecuted for my understanding of Scripture but I don't care. I am what I am, and I know what I know. Just because one fails to understand what I may say does not make me wrong or in error, especially since it is God who opens the mind or closes the mind, He either brings illumination or He allows people to stumble along in darkness. I plant and water, the Holy Spirit brings the increase. I know my call and the gifts, talents, and pounds the Lord has given me in my life. Yes, the Lord has spoken directly into me. But He has not done that with everyone, which is why I disagree with the so-called "great commission" due to the fact and truth of the teaching that we all have different and various callings with various gifts, etc., to accomplish that call to the Lord. If the apostle is represented as the thumb in the hand of the Lord it is very disturbing that the church leaders today teach that we are all thumbs and must preach about Jesus everywhere and every time because church leaders teach we have to follow this "great commission" dispite the fact of the teaching on the Body of Christ that the eye or the foot or the elbow must make every attempt at mimicking the function of the thumb. That is quite the heresy to teach that to every neophyte that the Lord baptizes into His Body, don't you think? We are not all mouths in the body of Christ.
