Interesting, you have just done what you accuse me of doing. You, according to you, have just sinned...you have accused me of bad motives, including "envy and pride."
I was simply saying that there are many reasons for being a Protestant, and not a Roman Catholic. I find it very strange that a Pastor who is supposedly trained in the Bible and Protestant theology would make the kind of statements he made. That is my opinion as a pastor-teacher who has been teaching the bible for almost 30 years. To say that I have sinned, and that my motives can be attributed to envy and pride, is to make yourself guilty of what you accuse me of. I am evaluating his position and statements as a Bible teacher...what are you doing?
Oh, give me a break. You asked for an explanation of my statement, and then you apply it to me? I was responding to your statement that his article was a "delusion," and my point was "how the heck do you know?"
“I was simply saying that there are many reasons for being a Protestant, and not a Roman Catholic.”
Really... and I have flying pigs for sale, cheap.
You said “Delusional.”
You made a judgment about not only his mental status which is something I won’t do without having someone in front of me, you also implied his decision was based on emotion and not reason.
That’s a lot of presumption. Thank goodness you didn’t have the temerity and hubris to judge the state of his soul.
