In certain circumstances. Same idea when Christ told his followers to sell their cloak and buy a sword. I'm not saying we do away with nice, I'm saying in some circumstances, we are allowed to not be.

Sister, lol you were correct in your assumption. He took the correction very well. He was appreciative and knew I just want what's best for him. We aren't super close, so I didn't pry anymore than just handing it to him and said I don't need a response.

I just talked to him again on saturday about it (wrote a letter). He was appreciative and said he's going to work on it better. I'm going to give him that opportunity first. If I were to tell leadership now, I feel like that's the wrong idea. That's just adding more pressure and drama without...

Not an affair per se, but I was blunt with a friend of mine who was hitting on women while seriously talking to one about marriage. 1st time- blunt 2nd time - direct, then tried to be understanding and help him see what he needs to heal in order to stop his behavior. ( So half direct, half...

That's all that needs to be said. Deuteronomy was clear, if it happens, they're a prophet. If it doesn't, they should be put to death. Making an argument for them not happening, is just trying to find a way to follow a false prophet while claiming "it's conditional". Her statements are not...

Agreed. Daniels prophecy is definitely a re-occuring one. Daniels specific prophecy was concerning the destruction of the Second Temple. It happened once, and then Jesus repeats the warning because of what was going to happen at the time of the end (Pray your flight will not be in winter or it...

Unpopular opinions: 1) There is no rapture in the idea that the church preaches. It's a gathering to himself at the second coming, nothing more. (Resurrection comes first, which fits returning with everyone and the ones who are alive, will be gathered to Him who is already in the clouds) 2)...

While I agree there is an attack on the gift of prophecy in general (lots of denominations say it no longer is used), and I agree with keeping the commandments and the sabbath, I whole heartily disagree that Ellen White was a true prophet. There is evidence of things she claimed, that did NOT...

I completely agree! I think some times its better to be blunt so people understand and in a lot of instances, nice can turn into beating around the bush which isn't going to help anything. There are point and times to be kind, caring and nice and theres others where directness and being blunt is...

I'm not saying it's bad, my point was in certain context and circumstances, it's okay to be blunt or direct. Here's an example: Say someone is taking scripture out of context and leading others astray to the point you can see it's pulling people away from Christ, not towards Him. You do not...

If you kill 50 people, you need the death penalty... housing and supporting them is just insanely stupid in my opinion.

Never played it but over the years I've limited how much time I'm on games. They're also just not like they used to be. Just a bunch of rehash ideas with new graphics.

i think it depends on the person. Like for me, i look forward to the destruction of evil, not the people. Tired of dealing with all the junk... But yes, for those who rejoice in death is pretty hypocritical. We have to remind ourself we were once sinners, just like them. Doesn't make us any better.

That's a good point that they weren't countries in themselves. God could very well take out a place without the whole country being crashed. Geeze... I wonder what He thinks of New York right now...

Very true. Growing up my best friend was the classic number 10 hot chick. I don't think I was model hot, but I wasn't bad. She would flirt with guys who would give her attention and would pull that classic, air head idea because she literally thought that's what guys wanted. Until conversations...

Honestly, I think the only reason the US hasn't been destroyed yet is because there are God's people living in it. But... the trib is coming. Eventually, God is going to have enough of humanity and it's evil.

Here's my personal opinion. We are currently in the time of Ezekiel's dry bones for Israel. Which puts us still at the time of the gentiles which Christ said needs to be fulfilled. So... Israel was given information on how people could be saved and they were supposed to spread it to the world...

He made great points. Thanks for sharing!

The absolute ego is unreal... So far, I've never met a single person who has theological degrees that doesn't have a massive ego. The love of their own wisdom...

I agree. Emotional manipulation is so prevalent now. It wasn't when I was growing up.
