I specifically did not use the "I am" because it might be construed as me saying I'm God, or something like that.

But I digress...

Don't worry or fret sister - Doxa is not referring to you or Steve (POTW). I'm sure she is referring to me and the Post I made (AV1611 Forums > Doctrine > Salvation = Faith + Works? > Page 3 > Post #22) in reference to some comments she made on the Forum.
...
I for one, am not going to allow Doxa to hang a "guilt trip" on me, just because her "feelings" get "hurt" by PLAIN TALK. I will not allow the world (or well-meaning Christians) muzzle me, just because they "feel uncomfortable" with the way I express myself....

Thank you brother, for your clarification. I've not yet worried or fretted over this forum, and have rarely gotten upset in any forum for a long while. I've been witnessing and discussing doctrine on the internet since shortly after I got saved, eight years ago; I've been baptised in 'fire', so to speak.

I'm no noob.

I'd be lying if I said I never got my feelings hurt when others disagreed with me, but the Lord is good to me, and reminds me of what He went through for my salvation, the pain He suffered makes my occasional 'hurt feelings' look like a butterfly kiss.

Brother, all brothers and sisters: don't stop proclaiming what the Bible says! I might agree, but if I disagree, I'll tell you why, and back it up with Scripture. No hard feelings, hmm?

And from these discussions, maybe we'll all learn something that will help us with our time spent here on earth.
