Bible Question:
Most assuredly, this post was not intended as a response to the note to which it is atached. Having made such a mistake I George have apparently been restricted further access to this sight. My humble and sincerely heart felt appologies to you christian7, and any others whom may have thought this post was in response to yours. In having made such an unforgivable mistake, I sadly accept the judgement passed apon me. Although I am sure the feeling will not be mutual, I will miss being able to read the words of wisdom possesed by many herein, and the sharing of biblical knowledge, with which I have been blessed. May our omnipotent and graceful Lord and master richly bless all who sincerely seek HIs truth with open mind and heart. And may they know that He WILL give KNOWLEDGE to those who diligently (not halfheartedly)seek His word. "In the begining was the Word." That Word will also be in the ending. As to those who would seek to interpriate,or opinionate the Word, I would strongly suggest they consider the Word in it's "entirity" so that the promices, rather than the curses therein would be theirs. For; Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach [them], the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. Mat 5:19 And Again I exhort you dear bretheren, that all should consider 2Ti2:15. For there are many who, "Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm." who intentionally or not, will lead you to distruction. A "sincere" application of 2Ti2:15 will equip you to discern and therefor rebuke those as such. For(and I paraphrase,) "we who teach wil be held accountable to a higher standard of judgement." christian7, Will you please forgive me? Exhorting in Christ George |
Bible Answer: Having been a party to the post that ultimately generated what you are now posting here, I will respond. 1st because I believe that no question that can be answered should be left behind, no matter how others will perceive the intentions of the writer or those who attempt to respond. First I would say that there are no unforgivable mistakes. We either choose to forgive or not. And as for mutual feelings of missing the forum and the forum missing you, of that I can't really know... I am new here. (I feel oftentimes like someone who stumbled on a neighbors wonderful backyard and garden, then making myself at home, took the liberty to just jump into the swimming pool) But having kept up with the entire thread, I see where there was a joke poking fun at himself that was posted by a contributor to this thread. The joke was innocently misunderstood by you, and you took it and ran with it, which has brought us here. Not to laugh at you ar the poster of: "Lord knows I need what little I have left." But if you have not realized it by now... the little left of which he spoke... was his hair. LOL I forgive your mistake, and I too have learned a great lesson from this entire misunderstanding. When responders ask, "Can you elaborate"?, "What exactly are you trying to ask?" or "Please explain the reason behind your query?" These are oftentimes valid, with no malice or insult intended. We all should probably get in the habit of asking, "What do you mean by....?" when it is not clear. This IMHO is a great lesson learned. -khuck |
