In 2 Kings 13 is an account of the young prophet and the old prophet. The Lord gave the young prophet specific instructions. The young prophet went away and came to the old prophet who gave him
different instructions. He listened to the old prophet and G~d sent a lion and killed him.
1Ki 13:26 And when the prophet that brought him back from the way heard thereof, he said, It is the man of God, who was disobedient unto the word of the LORD: therefore the LORD hath delivered him unto the lion, which hath torn him, and slain him, according to the word of the LORD, which he spake unto him.
We could go back and forth all day on the issues in the last few posts. I will continue to warn people of judgment coming and you can continue to make them feel comfortable that all's well.
Let's leave it with this: Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.

EXCUSE ME.
D3: I STERNLY AND STRONGLY REBUKE THE NOTION THAT I MAKE PEOPLE FEEL WELL AND THAT ALL'S WELL AT ALL--MUCH LESS:
2S: continue to make them feel comfortable that all's well.
D3: I have sought to cautiously and gently exhort you that it seemed very evident that you were approaching if not crossing over to an attitude and spirit that was not 100% Father-like nor Christ-like.
D3: Your misconstruing my words and significant record on FR leads me to the conclusion that you almost if not actually LIKE slinging lightening bolts in God's stead. That's very sad to me.
D3: YES, JUDGEMENT LOOMS--GOD'S JUDGEMENT LOOMS OVER MILLIONS OF US CITIZENS; OVER THE NATION; OVER OTHER NATIONS; OVER THE WORLD. IT IS SOBERING. IT IS SERIOUS. PEOPLE MUST BE WARNED IN NO UNCERTAIN TERMS. I HAVE BEEN DILIGENT--MORE DILIGENT ABOUT SUCH WARNINGS THAN ANY OTHER UNIVERSITY PROFESSOR AT A SECULAR UNIVERSITY I KNOW OF. Even implying otherwise indicates a serious flaw in your discernment as well as a fairly wholesale quickness toward judgementalism that I didn't expect to see from you.
D3: Nowhere in Scripture do I recall an exhortation to be calloused, haughty, cold hearted, insensitive, not compassionate, not Loving etc. toward even the doomed. Certainly it is Loving to warn--even to warn sternly. But it is not Loving to stand in the place of a haughty pharisee and pronounce judgement clothed in anything but humility, contrition and brokenness. I hope you are not approaching such a position, stance and attitude. But it seems that every opportunity I suggest for moving away from such a stance you move closer to it. May God enlighten you about such matters and the hazards related thereto.
D3: As you see, I'm not even too shy to avoid firmly warning you.
