Also, a few questions for you. 1. You have "judged" Godfollow by saying Your misapplication of the scriptures in order to judge those you personally disapprove of is just astounding.

What is the difference in heart attitude between how you claim Godfollow is judging and how you are judging Godfollow? Scriptural foundations for your answer here and your comment would be very helpful.

First of all I never claimed to know Godfollow's "heart attitude".
You are the one framing this as a discussion about a person's "heart attitude", not me.

I simply addressed what he posted.

Secondly, the difference between my "judging" and Godfollow's "judging" is simple;

Godfollow judged what Paul and Jan's reward in Heaven would be.

I made no such judgment on Godfollow.

I simply judged what Godfollow posted as wrong and unscriptural.

I will leave Godfollow's "reward" for this, up to God.

Jorge,

You said: First of all I never claimed to know Godfollow's "heart attitude".You are the one framing this as a discussion about a person's "heart attitude", not me.

That is not what I said, and if it came out that way, let me clear it up. I had said: 1. You have "judged" Godfollow by saying Your misapplication of the scriptures in order to judge those you personally disapprove of is just astounding. What is the difference in heart attitude between how you claim Godfollow is judging and how you are judging Godfollow? Scriptural foundations for your answer here and your comment would be very helpful.

First, when you quoted me, why did you leave off the part about the scriptural foundation for your answer? Was that on oversight on your part, or intentional?

Then, if you notice, I did not intend to say that you were judging Godfollow's heart or that you were making a statement about his heart attitude. My question was, and still remains - is what is the difference between you condemming/judging/commenting on Godfollow's words or actions and his commenting on the Crouch's? Godfollow pointed out the lesson Jesus was teaching us about the poor widow's coins and the rich man's in what the Crouch's gave and what they have, but yet you accused Godfollow of misapplying God's Word and did it in an emotional way. Not only that, but you did not show why you believe he is misapplying scripture. So, how is what you did and what Godfollow did any different in your hearts? Why is it that Godfollow is wrong to say something about someone's actions but not yours when at least Godfollow gave some scriptural support?

And why did you ignore my second question: 2. You say that Godfollow misapplies the scripture yet you give no explanation of that. Saying that doesn't mean it is true. Can you please show exactly how you think he is misapplying the scripture?
