Bible Note: Again, If I weren't to accept your apology, then I couldn't ask you to accept mine, which I do. Some want not to show their own ignorance by not "discussing anything with you" Schmythe. Others simply haven't the patience. Still, as with myself, others are offended by your method of discussion. Learn by what you see in the experiences of others. Try not to make the same mistakes they did and do. There is a Gold mine of learning along this line in this thread alone. Look at some of my posts. I haven't always worded them right, and thus came across saying something I didn't intend to say. Other times, what I wrote wasn't read correctly, and thus came across as an offence to the reader. Someone noted on this sight, in this thread , I think, something to the affect that "Christians don't come together to discuss scripture in the spirit of love because...." I wish I could remember who wrote it, and where that note was! For I simply don't believe that there is a true Christian alive who wishes to disagree with another Christian. Why CAN'T we agree? (I've got to do some serious studying!) It was as such in the early days of the church, and is as such today. BUT WHY? (Scriptural quotes please.) George |
