Meggido and EG...I type this with love from my heart to both of you who are my brothers in Christ...I have to say with all honesty that your post are becoming very personal between each other and uncomfortable to see...I am sure if you both truly put each other on ignore and take time out from each other you will both benefit...I also see that on each of your posts, someone will like what one is saying to the other although the post from both of you sometimes is very ungodly and the likes from people seem to be from those that like to stir the pot, not the likes on your bible discussions but on the post where you are both clearly getting lost in your fleshly words... Please except my post with love to you both, take time out, defuse and give each other a week and come back and see how you both feel, if time out does not change things between you both, that ignore each other for longer, this is sent with sisterly love to my brothers in Christ...God bless you both, i pray that this will be sorted...xox...:)

They will go apostate

They will go lukewarm

They will backslide

(but not all of them)

If they WILL do those things you say they will, (even some)

Then they DID NOT work,

they DID NOT obey

They DID NOT grow

They RETURNED to live like they used to,

They WERE NOT changed

You can not have it both ways, Either they did, or they did not..

I cry "peace" to my brethren and not sure who I would consider my enemy....I think most folks are just friends I haven't meet or won over to loving me yet....lol.
I made peace.EG asked me to put him on ignore...I DID, so did DCON I did that and they continue to comment on my posts, even though they KNOW I have ignored them.....why?



And now EG states he never begged me to place him on Ignore, but his comment was....put me on ignore

Because you are in this thread and they disagree with what you are posting.

They post for those reading. Fran and others do also.

I find the idea funny...but I guess we do have an audience, I would rather pretend they aren't there.

I don't like big crowds. Too easy for your words to,be misunderstood.

I should not have to put him on ignore.. I actually agreed to disagree with him concerning his view people can hand back salvation. and thought that was resolved.

I should be able to discuss things freely without being attacked. slandered and lied about.

There is an easy way to resolve this, Stop lying about others.

No you did not make peace. You hid from what you did, have yet to admit you lied about things you said about me, and then made pot shots, and said you ignored me.

I already showed you the post where I asked you to ignore me if you were going to continue,, ( I never begged, yet here you are continuing your lie. and trying to defend yourself.

You may have put me on ignore, but you continued yuour slanderous remarks. and still do

but see, If they were what they said they were in Christ....they would disagree and move out smartly like a Good Marine and Good Soldier of Christ Jesus and let God validate them......Instead they are defending themselves and their pride and not "the faith"....

they can dish it out, but they cannot take it.....and maybe people need to see that....

Wow.

Somebody new who actually knows what BELIEVE means!!!

Apparently, he's not AFRAID of what it means because he TRULY has faith in his Lord and Savior.

yes, faith/belief/trust are all synonymous, many times translated from the same Greek word...be blesed

my personal observation on this thread is the workers against always have a closing statement and not an open ending to discuss,,, i call that force feeding they call that being a guardian..
if you have free will, to believe what you want,

yet, if what they belief bring, harm to others, force feeding others, to believe the same as they do. when acts 15 is in the bible. yet after read gal 5 , they are going to have a big problem , justifying , why the law,( old covenant) should not condemn them.

for example.

Galatians 5: Christ Has Set Us Free
1 For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery.
2 Look: I, Paul, say to you that if you accept circumcision, Christ will be of no advantage to you.3 I testify again to every man who accepts circumcision that he is obligated to keep the whole law.4 You are severed from Christ, you who would be justified by the law; you have fallen away from grace.5

if following the law, is what god, wanted, he would not have sent jesus.


stopping a human authority, holding this law, to preserve and justify there wrong doings, like , who they murders, because there law said it is wrong,etc

we would need a high court to
prosecute them.

wrong to kill, but ok to kill, an enemy with a bomb etc.

lets all walk, through death, and we will see who, saves who.(believers and unbelievers)etc


and for the record, who did jesus kill, if he came to save people from certain death.

You told me yesterday I condemned a person to hell. Even after I PROVED YOU WRONG, you still continue to maintain you were correct.

Why don't y'all just stop talking to or about each other.
.your both grown men but I keep expecting to see a catfight.

I love you both but the last couple pages is just fighting...very little discussion of the Bible.

Only edifying thing that stands out is Blue personal testimony..,love you blue.

If you have jumped through circles with someone before, why repeat the conversation?

When I realise I am repeating myself to some one (which I have been foolish enough to do too) when I realise it..,i stop and spend my time talking to someone else or change the topic with that person.

Anyway...will keep everyone in prayer and hope there is more peace and godly discussion when I check back on the thread.

ok, I will try to do this, Whenever meggido tells more of his lies. I will expose it. And continue until he repents, or enough people tell him to stop and he actually stops.

Whenever he makes a doctrinal statement, I will comment on it (either I agree or disagree and why)

other than that I will try not respond anymore,

When my friend came to the Lord,and started reading the Bible,he believed in not saved by works,and he would avoid the book of Job,and said that it is not supposed to be in the Bible,for it contradicts scriptures,for he thought it said,Job,as in work.

Amen, Keep being a witness for us all.. We need that example.. And it seems to be lost in here, with all the people who try to divide us, it is good to have a calming soul to try to bring things back to normal.
you need, something, to divide, only propaganda, needs a choice.

propaganda mixed with a religions belief.

when were you offered, a choice to who the saviour is.

the same way ,you have a choice ,to who, you answer to. (posts)

You don't know?

Once you put them on ignore, you can't see them talking about you behind your back.
