Bible Note: Kalos, I suspect that I am the subject of this post to Hank - I'm sad to think that we are on opposite "sides" of anything. All I asked of you was for an example of how God influences your life in specific ways through His Word; I am sorry if my evangelical choice of word (testimony) offended you. It is not I who "cross-examines you", but according to God's Word, you should be prepared to give an answer when asked. . . my question is sincere. "but sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts, always being ready to make a defense to everyone who asks you to give an account for the hope that is in you, yet with gentleness and reverence;" 1 Peter 3:15 What is so "wrong" with my question? As believers shouldn't it be natural to talk about what the Lord is doing in our lives? "Then those who feared the LORD spoke to one another, and the LORD gave attention and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before Him for those who fear the LORD and who esteem His name." Mal 3:16 Frankly, I'd much rather hear where you are today with the Lord than your salvation story of coming to faith in Him. I wonder how you might respond to the same question from one not in the "family." Hopefully, with more gentleness and respect than you have had on this thread. I'm sorry for any misunderstanding Kalos, but I believe, (yes, this is my opinion) based upon what I read in God's Word, that my request of you is reasonable. Might you re-think your closing statement about the Forum? What "seasoning" are you using here? (I've already provided a Scripture that covers that.) mommapbs |
