man of God?

someone who demands everyone do it his way?

someone who DEMANDS the owner of this site do what he wants or else?

someone who uses scripture like a club and gets angry at everyone almost all the time?

if you think that is a man of God...perhaps you should review the fruit of the Spirit and what the word humble means

God has had and has mercy on me which is why I don't fall for this kind of religious CRAP

a major problem today, is people like Chuck who think God has crowned them king

my king is JESUS...not chuckie
He wants something done about people misusing the Word of God, do you find a problem with that? Why would you tell him you don't want to be in line behind him when God " zaps his religious " spirit? Who talks like that? Is that something Jesus would say? Is that somethg the Holy Spirit would guide you say? I would suggest you evaluate what spirit is guiding your words with people.

yeah

the biggest problem I have with that, is that he thinks if you don't agree with him, you are beneath his dignity to answer

that's called arrogance

I'm not into it...he does have a fan club on here tho

however, I don't think the admins or owner of the site are going to hand over the reins to him

well apparently I might 'talk like that'...because I am not trying to be religious

Squirrels are pesky critters. They would intimidate our poor dogs when I was living in Iowa. They knew the dogs were tied up and could only chase them so far, so they'd come up close and torment them.

funny you should mention that

we have had a squirrel coming around to the feeders for about a week now and my dogs go bonkers...I'm afraid for the big window in the living room

he knows the dogs cannot get him either...but if I tie one by the side door and one out the front deck, he just stands and looks

that thing is cute as all get out but I don't need it making my dogs koo koo...the other day, I let my little blue heeler loose and she chased it under the barn...sure put a big surprised look on his face LOL!

he stayed away for 2 days but came back today...grrrrrrr

God is dealing with the body on this point, i do believe, in the way that he does when things start getting to a certain critical point. This stuff is very important, yes.

It will be ok.

Ah. Here we go... 2nd Peter 2 (And evanescence - "sick" on my stereo, how about that).

I have a number of "pet" squirrels living in local trees. One of them used to bump noses with my dog, (like they were kissing) and walk under him to be fed by me. We have a tame Mocking Bird, too, but he/she wouldn't get too close if the dog was near.

So, as Christians are we to get mad at anyone? Are we to even expect the one following the other Spirit to understand Jesus Spiritual ways? If so, someone did get Scripture mis-quoted when they read it.Doesn't Scripture tell us that All Scripture is God-breathed and useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness? (2 Tim. 3:16). Are we not, then, to exhort in Christ our sinful brothers and sisters; to encourage thru allowing God to use us in His timing in laying Scripture in front of people for the purposes of teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness wrapped in love to be fully equipped to do every good work? So, be at peace and use the proper Scripture to correct etc.Jesus says we will never be rocked off center here if we remain in Him, and His words remain in us, (unless this is in jeopardy) You have Jesus with you to show thru discovery the right way....."Be anxious about nothing...." Remember? Ask God to show you why you are unable to not stay on Christ's stable ground. God has it under control.

we have a pair of mallards...I think the female is the same one that has been coming for several years...she lost her mate 3 yrs back...hit by the school bus, so sad.....but she has a new one now...she stands about 12 feet away while I put out the corn for her...her mate is so attentive...said to my husband the other day...there are human males who could learn something from that duck...

I used to live on the third floor of an apartment building and fed squirrels every day. One morning I was awakened to a scratching noise. I looked up and there was a squirrel at the window right next to my bed. I got out of bed and told the squirrel to follow me. As I walked through my apartment into the kitchen, the squirrel scaled the outside wall and met me at the kitchen window where I fed him. :)

LOL!

watch out for those rocks in your little glass shack there buddy

I honestly do not understand why you consistently make posts that reveal a hatred for me simply because I made a post asking why people were ganging up on the op in the family forum

since then, I have noticed a number of folks asking you why you are so grumpy

you also stated you would not post to me any longer

there is something off with you and I have nothing to do with it...neither do the other people you try to belittle

you need to grow up

you are one of the people I avoid because of your snarky posts and attitude that you think you have it altogether

you pass hot air...not good advice

I also know you have been told to tone it down

you should take that advice

no worries...I have no respect for your little rants...they mean nothing whatsoever..but I truly dislike what you do to others

my last post to you...your opinion and judgement passes right back on you...you started this..at your age, you should really let it go

that's what I'm doing, but I will report your next jab at me and keep reporting it...it's against the TOS

I don't hate you at all. I'm simply amused time and again at the shear magnitude of your blind arrogance, all the while calling people out for being arrogant. You're too funny. ;)

Please don't change; I love laughing at your expense.

(Depleted! Where are you? I need an attitude adjustment from you.) :p

You sure do take an awful lot of time engaging in something you have no interest in.

But I digress. Carry on, little one.

There is one principle that I have followed in regards to others. Both in way of ministering to people who are off base (which includes misquotes), and in way of people who attack me personally, and try to hurt me; what I set myself on is this: "If I fear God I fear nothing at all, but when I do not fear God I fear everything all the time, even when I act as if I don't." As a child I thought as a child but as a grown up in Christ, I have put childish things behind me and move always onward and upward in Christ. I care for both of you: ember and Utah. It hurts me to hear such fear of things that one feels the need to lash out in order to have peace. I pray you both find peace in Christ set in the fear of God, who loves us so, and fills our every gap. God bless you both -- sincerely.

Hi,

I have a ? it may seem simple yet it seems not . Where did fear come from why are people fearfull seems to me and when you look at the translations it appears we are to fear The Most High my ? is why why do you ...FEAR...the one who saw to it that you could be a part of what The Most High has for you ,

Fear rules your life why .... you let it My Lord say fear not him who can kill you what is that to you .


The Harlot church is run on fear are you part of that if not then why fear The Most High as we are told not to fear him who made us, do you praise The Most high in fear

or because you have to so your fear is then shown in who you are as a person The Accuser has it right then .

Lack of trust becomes a fear of or you are fearfull.

...noeleena...
