Eastbound,
We all have something to offer, as GOD gives us all a certain amount of gifts and wisdom that we can all learn from.
Yet we must be obedient in all things, as GOD has ordered, and is always watching.
As you have agreed below that what you were referring to was not mentioned by me ( and you apologized). So, it may be easier just to start your own topic, then, you would find the people who would want to have this discussion.
Or, you can stay here and continue. It’s your choice.
Tomorrow there will be a different passage and possibly different replies. I am only here because GOD wakes me up daily, I pray, then HE sends me passages to read, and GOD has me send them out on my phone, emails, and certain sites. What people want to discuss after is free for people to discuss or not discuss on the same post or make their own; it’s their choice. May we all respect their choices.
Normally if someone stays on topic, and obeys Matthew 18:15-17, I will have a conversation all day. As many here have had that experience with me. But, in obedience to Matthew 18:15-17, that’s the order in which I will give discuss/debate and give answers.
But first and foremost, I pray people seek GOD first, faith, prayer, and the WORD before they want to ask me any questions.
Love to you and all people in the holy precious name of Jesus Christ,
GOD BLESS US ALL,
Jesus4life
It appears to me that you would rather play the role of pastor or prophet rather than just be one of the flock seeking answers or sharing information.
That being the case, don't you think your post would be better received if you posted it as a blog rather than under the religion category?
It's not my desire to follow some unified type church service which you apparently are aiming for here, with your requirement that we all read a specific portion of scripture before we begin to read the body of your original post.
Different rules for blogs than for general topics. You can specify the type responses you would like to receive from a blog post, because that's considered to be your own property, so to speak. Not so with the regular FR topics, including religion. So if you want to play the role of preacher and start a following, the blog would be the place to do it.
For your edification.
