Bible Note: Greetings Coop1! Sorry for calling you a brother awhile back! Apparently, you are my sister in Christ! :-) May I address what seems to be the reason so many have been riled up in this thread? You make it sound like those who believe the way you do are spiritual and have faith, those who don't believe the way you do just don't understand yet! I have tried to say all along - if this is the way you believe, then I support your choice fully. But, your view is not the only view, nor the more spiritual view. I trust God! I don't live in fear! If someone tried to force me to deny Christ, I fully believe that I would die before doing so. I just don't belive that God would expect me to stand by while some mugger killed my wife! The fact that I would defend my family or my country doesn't make me unspiritual! Please don't allow this one issue to disturb you too much! There are many Christians on this forum, we don't always agree with each, but we do love one another! It gets quite fun around here! Joe and I might disagree on one issue and then find ourselves agreeing on another. The same goes for Sir Pent, Charis, Nolan, Kalos, Hank, Ed, CDBJ, ect..... :-) But, we all have the same goal: to serve Christ and to understand His word! I look forward to interacting with you on other issues in the future! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
