An open conversation on opinions ( which this can easily become), can cause confusion, controversy, etc... which is not what JESUS says for believers to do.

If you believe this then why post on FreeRepublic which is a discussion forum? Are you not posting this in the Religion section where many believers are?

Once something has been put in a title, it is also up for discussion. And perhaps a further explanation of what you believe about God's order and Traditions would be helpful?

Anything can be open for a discussion. But usually a person opens things for a discussion by asking a question. I have not asked any questions. But, instead just post bible passages to inspire ( as I have said before).

If someone who is a believer wants to debate or discuss over them, then that’s when I would expect them to understand to follow what the WORD says about debates/discussions/issues ( which I posted before). Which is one on one first, then if that doesnt work bring a witness, if that doesn’t work take it to the church, if that doesnt work then treat the person as a tax collector ( or stranger).

This is what JESUS ordered, and I ( just like I pray all believers) try to be obedient with as much as the gospel they know.

In speaking to a non-believer, then, I would constantly tell them what I am following from the WORD in a private email so that they know why I am not talking to them publicly. As many here have already experienced.

I pray all read this message for furhter understanding on these kinds of matters.

We are all a work in progress, all in different levels of faith, and all reaching for the goal ( I pray).

Love to you and all people in the holy precious name of Jesus Christ,

GOD BLESS US ALL,
