Bible Question: Doc, are you the one that has the button and is restricting my gift in several other thread/questions? |
Bible Answer: Hi, Jer... Lockman, our gracious host does not reveal their means of managing the Study Bible Forum. Presumably they have people monitoring posts, because some threads are suppressed or entries deleted. They may also revoke profiles that they deem are people that will not follow their guidelines -- we occasionally see such participants suddenly stop posting. Perhaps they have other mechanisms at their disposal. Given that you have contributed to threads that have been suppressed, it might be wise to review the Terms of Use. If your self-proclaimed "gift" is of divine origin, then it will include the ability to exercise self-control, show kindness, manifest respect, edifying others, etc. (Galatians 5:22-23). Fleshliness will be reflected in a character that is pugnacious, prideful, impatient, angry, uncooperative, rebellious, etc. (Galatians 5:19-21). Our Lord is gracious to enumerate these character traits, so that the tree can be identified by its fruit. Thus we are enabled to test ourselves as we are commanded to do (2 Corinthians 13:5; cf 1 John 4:1). In Him, Doc |
