Bible Note: Tim, I believe you have misunderstood my intent, brother. Please don't hear what I'm not saying. Have you not read my posts or responses? Neither have I put you down. (Eph.4:15) Perhaps the King James version should have been used in quoting Rom. 14:1. What I meant to emphasize was the "disputable matters". As you obviously took it wrong the fault is on my part. Please forgive me. In my humble estimation, the "fierce opposition" you speak of is none other than public discourse on the Forum! As there are a variety of views within Orthodox Christianity espoused here, you and me are likely to encounter some challenges to our statements. Don't take it as an affront to you personally, but rather realize that there is room for disagreement. If one attempts to be dogmatic in their support for a view Orthodox or not, they will likely be challenged. Hence, Rom. 14:1. Tim, my reason for responding to you in the manner in which I did, was that you presumed far too much and that your presumptions were and are incorrect. Please feel free to check out my user profile, as it may help you to better know me. Rest assured that "put downs" and "intimidation ploys" are hardly representative of my posts! You might try reading some to get a better feel before you offer up conjecture-that my friend is not becoming nor a Godly attribute. I take seriously, both how I response and with what I respond. Posting is a priviledge that comes with responsiblity. As such, 2 Tim 2:15 carries a great deal of weight in my walk. Speaking The Truth In Love, BradK |
