I was thinking about how God's power is an edifying power, did some searching and came across this sermon.

Godspeed :-)

[restornu]

I know you are of other faiths, but I am sure you have something like this in you teachings!

[Utah Girl]

Thank you for posting this sermon, we can all do a better job at loving one another and being kind.

[wita]

I'm using politicians and elected representatives as my example, and I know some of the best, Tommy two-tongues Daschle, Deceiving Dick Gephardt, oops, am I falling into a trap here?

[restornu]

Wrigley I apologized to you if you felt slandered at that last thread.

I think if we ask another a question it should be not under trying to get anohter conform.

I don't ever recalled commission given to another to try as a whole community made up of several houses of worship!

We are to find as neighbors the common ground that will unite us!

What is the bottem line things of the Lord or or defending a doctrine.

Should we all not be seeking truth?

[restornu]

Think what you want I never associated you as one who drinks nehi and Snapple peach tea as a beer drinker so I never put it togather!

I don't ever recall in in the years you kidding about a drink!

As I recall that psot was on some bragging about getting drunk. Who I don't know, and your name never poped in my mind!

[RnMomof7]

Rest I have had about all I can endure. It is one thing to have a doctrinal debate, even with low blows and another to personally slander the character of an individual calling them drunks and whores.

If anyone searched FR they could easily find my name .

Do me a favor and take me off your bump list OK ? If we run into each other on a thread we can exchange posts but that is it.

I am too tired to play games especially ones that are ones that are PERSONALLY destructive

[drstevej]

I appreciate the comments.

For the record, I do not drink alcohol. I informed Jesse of this fact privately and asked for a clarification to be posted or retraction of the insinuation. He took no action.

He never set the record straight, so I am doing so now.

[RnMomof7]

For the record, I do not drink alcohol. I informed Jesse of this fact privately and asked for a clarification to be posted or retraction of the insinuation. He took no action.

I do not drink either, but that does not stop the slander does it?

[Wrigley]

I'll admit it, I have a beer every now and then. Not sure if that makes me a totally evil person, but according to some, I guess it does.

[RnMomof7]

The Biblical admonition is not to get drunk, there is no Biblical admonition not to have a beer.

I do not drink because I come from a family of alcoholics. My years studying and counseling alcoholics/addicts taught me that it is heredity . I went to a holiness church for years that had a no drinking doctrinal stand.

I feel free to have a glass of wine if I should choose. I just do not choose to. Enjoy your beer..it is Christian liberty to do so

[Wrigley]

I understand and have no problem at all with that reasoning. I've understood the Biblical teaching as you have. It's very edifying to have that understanding and support.

[drstevej]

I leave your decision whether to have a beer or two to your own conscious before the Lord. Your decision either way is fine with me.

Afterall, you're a Cub fan and a beer can help with the pain. :~)

[Wrigley]

Now, on the other hand, that last comment wasn't very edifying. :-)

[drstevej]

conscious = conscience

[restornu]

Amazing reply concidering, I shall honor your wishes!

[restornu]

just for the record I dont' drink I have friends that have a beer or two and I don't think it is a crime!

21 years ago I used to enjoy an dripping Ice Cold Rolling Rock on a hot summer day!

I really don't miss it for what I have now!

I don't think a drink or two was the issue it was some bragging getting drunk among those who are of the coth and no one council at the time.

As many are famous to council another here, so quick to point out the mote in anothers eyes.

Truely this thread was to find out a way to mend and heal!

I am glad the Lord has MORE patiences with us!

So will you stop slandering me all over the 'Net Sharon? Or is gossip ok for you somehow? A direct answer, not involving whining or stupid pictures would be the adult thing to do but something tells me you will not be capable of this answer. You WERE being nasty when I commented as I did. And for the record, I drink as much as Dave or less (Not being Dutch). Can you be an adult Sharon?
