Subject: What did you learn |
Bible Note: Dear Lillie, I've been a member of the forum for a couple of years now as you can see from my profile. All forum members work cooperatively to maintain an atmosphere of careful study and thoughtful deliberation. A divisive person is pretty easy to spot, after you've been here for a while. Responses to the replies by several good and longstanding members is telling. Also, the use emotive words like "feel" instead of cerebrative words like "think" is highly indicative. Another characteristic is a penchant to post only on a single topic. Finally, reactions to appeals for a change in behavior are pretty consistently negative. Lockman has provided clear terms of use... terms to which everyone commits themselves when they create an account. In that vein, I ask: What does the Scripture say about promises? (James 5:12) What does it say about proper orderliness? (1 Corinthians 14:40) What does it say about our responsibility to one another? (Romans 15:14) How are we told to esteem one another? (Philippians 2:3) Therefore, in the spirit of 1 Thessalonians 5:14, I offer you instruction on acceptable forum behavior, for the good of all. By doing our best to work together in our studies, we honor our Lord by allowing the Study Bible Forum to render the maximum results possible as directed in 2 Timothy 3:16-17. In Him, Doc "And the Lord's servant must not be quarrelsome but kind to everyone, able to teach, patiently enduring evil, correcting his opponents with gentleness. God may perhaps grant them repentance leading to a knowledge of the truth, and they may escape from the snare of the devil, after being captured by him to do his will." (2 Timothy 2:24-26 ESV) |
