let me be the first to apologize as I am the last person to open a thread titled "wolves in sheeps clothing" I never EVER intended to lash out at those I was speaking about. Or too. I am but human and to this day I still let some things get to me. I am getting better at giving my emotions up to the Lord though it has by no means been perfected. I just wanted to say that the only reason I made that thread and the only reason many of us keep those arguements going is this one thought that nags at us in the back of our mind." what if we don't get the other side of this topic out correctly, and someone reads it and believes because we went away that the other opinion was correct." that may not seem like a big deal to someone scanning these threads or someone who has already made up their mind about these topics and come here for other reasons (maybe to see something happy) but when we talk about questions like "do I need to turn away from my sins to be saved?" these questions must go answered, and maybe it doesn't matter to you or a hundred others, but somewhere in between there may be one person who is glued to that screen and feels that they need to believe what they are doing is the will of GOD. Never have I condoned calling names, or trying to belittle anyone. However at some point these arguements take turns for almost the sureal, at which times the bible seems to jump out at us in 3D and suddenly we see something that the bible has been trying to show us in a whole new light. Such as a wolf in sheeps clothing. It is a simple picture. That which eats flesh, dressing up like one of the flock, to lead it away from the shepherd, surely if such a thing exists than it is possible to encounter such an entity. Again I do apologize if this seemed negative to you. It was never my intention.
Also I would like to say, I believe all party's envolved have learned that anger is not the way. The more threads we (as a whole) comment on and study scripture, the more we realize that we shouldn't strive, but be gentle.
I hope you stay. God bless

, again I apologize.
