It looks like the thread hijackers are gone and those that wish can continue to discuss the article of the thread. I think that those who in their own minds like to imagine themselves as "peacemakers" and "can't we all just get along?" kind of people mistake the point of apologetics and get riled up for no reason. Half of this thread probably contains posts from them and they succeeded in only sidetracking the discussion from one of doctrine to the need to even HAVE discussions on doctrine. What a waste of time!

We already KNOW that there are people right here on Free Republic that have come out of false cults SPECIFICALLY because of people like you who are compelled by the love of Christ to shine the light of truth to those caught in a false religion you once were as well. I get it! The motive is NOT hatred - if it were you wouldn't bother saying a thing, you would instead say, "To hell with them, it's not my fault I got mine!". I hope that you do not let such comments discourage you but will continue to speak as the Lord moves you to. We never know who reads these threads. But it is the Holy Spirit who takes the truth of God's word and does not let it return void - it accomplishes what He sends it out to do.

For those who misunderstand what you are trying to do here and who take offense "for" others, we can only pray that they begin to see that what is going on is light shining. It is putting a candle on top of a stand and not under it. It is pointing the way to the only savior there is - the Lord Jesus Christ.

And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled. (Luke 14:23)

The motive is NOT hatred - if it were you wouldn’t bother saying a thing, you would instead say, “To hell with them, it’s not my fault I got mine!”.

Bingo and thank you for the support. There have been a lot of times I wished I hadn’t been called to this, but God keeps pulling me back to it. It is for HIS glory alone, not mine...never mine.

God bless you, BB.
