Wow... I cannot believe some threads on here sometimes... The longest threads are usually the ones that are full of discord, sarcasm, criticism and just a whole load of time wasting.... The shortest threads are usually them that are full of grace and truth... Just a little rebuke there for u all. In love xx
I'll admit I've written some rather lengthy ones lately, and have been encouraged by some others I've seen as well,
(though some REALLY long ones, generally dominated by the one who started the OP, don't impress me in the least, they're usually by some intellectual blowhard who doesn't believe in or care about Jesus, anyhow),
generally ours have been in attempts to counter the short, nicey-sounding posts of LIES that have been getting puked all over what's supposed to be a christian site.
I'd rather have somebody take the time to explain the TRUTH than to just toss a quick grenade of LIES where the shrapnel then flies and causes extensive damage,
then the grenade throwers sit and snicker behind the scenes at others trying to clean up after their filthy mess of false doctrines, false accusations, and phony niceyness.
LOVE speaks the truth, but it isn't always pretty,
and sometimes it takes patience and perseverence,
especially when it's trying to undo the enemies damage.
But it's far better than lies couched in flowery nice-isms
or quick-snickering arrogance, no matter how 'short and sweet'.
God bless and protect you as you seek Him along the way.
