peter reminded me of my father and myself before i was freed, i think thats why he scared me so much, like him i was never open, and would always blame shift if i was caght in something, i would never take tesponsibility for anything, i think it grew out of the heart of legalism which had me in chains, i couod not admit i was wrong, i would have to admit i was guilty and would suffer gods wrath.
at the same time, he did have alot of good to offer, then some stuff i will be honest, i could not figure out what he was trying to say lol
i think we all have done banable stuff, i also agree there
I think the main issue with PJ was what he considered hypergrace was and thought many here were promoting it.
Off topic he accused me of that.
He asked me a couple of times as to how he could build a ministry in his church where men could meet together.
To be honest, open up and build each other up to walk and be like Jesus.
He accepted that hurts and indoctrination of the past affect where we are now.
I like you agree that he had a good lot to offer and at times I liked his posts.
But also at times "Oh PJ if only you stopped before that last sentence"
I may get slammed for this but I do consider him a brother in Jesus.
He like many of us when we are slammed by others get defensive and put barriers up and respond accordingly.
I think culture adds to it.
Us Brits are weird, we apologize to those changes that have offended us.
Also when people come from a hurting place any perceived negative words are negative so we take it personally even if it's not.
I will mention my friend Dcon here.
I have never heard him say that he destests the person but their doctrine.
I have says to him the past that I don't agree with the way he says it at times, and maybe he should think about the way he says things to the people he is responding to, get the know the person.
In fact I've fallen foul of him, and given back.
Now I know Mr DC has thought about it, not because of what I said.
In fact he apologized way back for calling people cake takers, felt God say that's not right.
So to some his purpose is to bring down, when in fact it's not.
He does not hate the person but the doctrine and just wants to see people set free.
I have been accused of the opposite.
Being namby pampy.
Both ways work, its just getting to know the person you are taking to and his they will respond.
I will walk with DC all the way, I'd even tell him "Woa you could have said it differently, and accept him saying stop being a namby Pandy"
We are all here to build each other up.
Before we do let's get to know the person first.
