[chette777]

Romans 14:19 Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edify another

there would seem to be a lot of folks on the thread some have been here for some time some are new who in fact claim to be Christians yet forget the KJV Bible is their rule of authority for their life.

the above verse if it is practiced, not just about meat, drink or holy day, but anything that would cause a weaker brother to judge another or a stronger one to despise a brother. it is evident in your posts these things are happening.

Tbones and parish are tooth and nail over a man (not the first time for Parish to defend a man to the death). Others are tooth and nail over dispensationalism. Some over Baptism and the Lords Table, confession yet corrupt hearts are showing instead of Charity.

Men and sister's, your attitudes are not in Christ and your are offensive (woe to you whom offense come), thin skinned, overly sensitive, childish and immature. you are causing people to leave the forum, and the contemplation of this whole forum site to be shut down.

Is that what you want? or do you think that is what Satan wants? if so why be an instrument of the devil?

So, I leave you with the following verse to meditate and consider. I ask those of you who are currently debating over men, critical of other posters heart or intent, and you know it all's who wont budge one bit to be the one to be humble. stop posting for a couple of days, deeply consider the two sections of scriptures shared today. Grow in Christ, put on Christ, and put on the Armour of righteousness. than after you have done all to stand upright and soberly then come back.

1Cor 13:1 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.
3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.
4 ¶ Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
8 ¶ Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.
9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.
10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.
11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.
