Yes, thank God you did not end up on the street.... living on the street is horrible, the things I learned, I wish I never knew, I cannot even think about them.
Well, you are much appreciated here on CC!!!
we need your sense of humour.

I think this might the the work that God told us to do while we're waiting for Jesus to return......

And everyone who hears these words of Mine, and does not do them, shall be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand, and the rain came down, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and they beat on that house, and it fell, and great was its fall.” [/FONT]

Why do you act as though you are better than someone else, requiring certain criteria in order to answer a simple question ? That doesn't sound like God is leading you to act that way to me. I just asked you a very fair question based on your earlier comments. It would seem like an honest man could offer an honest response. Why do you wish to avoid the below question ?
Tell me, why is it that those who claim TO SEE CHRIST need to resort to name calling in a discussion ? I would think they would be so much better behaved than that dc. You never did answer my question relating to this. Why do you claim to being led by God, yet resort to such nasty name calling as you sometimes do ?

For crying out loud people! Why do you just look at the surface of things. No one can change except God makes thrm.... we can banter on and on and on and try to convince people that they are being mislead and doing the wrong things but until God opens their heart nothing you say or do will change them. So keep on loving them and God will do the rest.

2 Timothy 4:2 [SUP]2[/SUP]Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage-with great patience and careful instruction.
Titus 2:15 [SUP]15[/SUP]These, then, are the things you should teach. Encourage and rebuke with all authority. Do not let anyone despise you.
Proverbs 27:5 [SUP]5[/SUP]Better is open rebuke than hidden love.
Does it sound like God is telling us to be silent ? Or does it sound like He is telling us to try to straighten the paths of others ? Your way is not the way described in the Bible. You may think it is but it isn't. Surely nothing will change one if they don't realize they are doing wrong. If they are told, then at least they know about it and have been given a chance to change. Silence is not the answer and these verses make that rather clear.
