I don't appreciate having words placed in my mouth, especially when the intention is false.

No, I do not apologize for communicating the Gospel to my fellow man.

Nor, if I sincerely witness a grieving of the Spirit, do I apologize for bringing it the attention of my brother or to an unbeliever if it appears he might listen.

The only grieving of the spirit taking place was the grieving of your own spirit, because I did not agree with your doctrine and chose to say so. Trying to imply that I grieved the Holy Spirit is you trying to wrap yourself in a cloak of spirituality to avoid admitting that you made a serious error in judgment, and falsely and wrongly impuned my chaaracter, my standing before the Lord, and my credibility before others here, an error which you persist in committing unto this very moment. If I grieved the Holy Spirit, He could and would deal with me directly. Especially after this much time has elapsed, and I have been in prayer every day. You take upon yourself the mantle of "sensitivity" to the Holy Spirit, in order to further your own doctrine at the expense of others. You think to make yourself beyond reproach, because you invoke the Holy Spirit, and accord to anyone who doesn't agree with you the title of "soulish". You are quite a piece of work!

Time for discussion is long past. How long halt thou between two opinions? Will you humble yourself and be restored, or harden yourself and be soulish?
