People get confused. I don't tell people 'what to do'. Yet they react for all the world like I am in their face with my pointing finger, and accusing. Rather, I point out how Jesus is, and how they might be different if they were to consider. Of course, they have the scripture and the Holy Spirit to consult with on whether what I assert is true. But regardless, people will believe 'what they want' to believe. I can relate to it, been there, done that. Anyway, that is what they need to repent of! (Did I just tell people what to do? Hum.) Don't believe what 'you' want to. Find out the truth!

Michael,

I read what you posted and I just want you to know that I personally do not condemn you in any way. People get Confused? I don't know. I can only speak for myself, and will only speak for myself.

If I really am seeking only to give The Lord glory in all that I say and do, that's all I can do.

God knows the heart and motives alone. I will let the Holy Spirit minister to me and therefore I am either condemned or justified in my conscience.

God is good and knows your heart. Why worry about anything else? If you have peace with Him, What more could anyone else really ever hope to have?

Michael,

You often come across as looking down on others here. It is if you see yourself as a superior Christian. I am not saying this is your intention, but this is the way you come across.

Obviously that is how I am perceived Betty, judging from the flack I get. But it does not matter what I say, or the way in which I say it, it comes down to my being perceived that way. But consider this, that the enemy will go all out to stir up opposition, and pull no punches if the message is true. And he is very active. But all I can do is persist, and hope for a little fruit. Joy is in it: Others, and mine!

Praise God!

They react as if I'm in their face.
Pointing my finger.
Accusing.
Rather, I point to Jesus.
I tell how they might be different.
If they would only consider.
Regardless, they believe what they want to.
That is what they need to repent of.
You don't believe what you want to.
Find out the truth.
It does not matter what I say.
Or how I say it.
I'm only perceived that way.
The enemy will stir up opposition.
Enemy pulls no punches if message is true.
All I can do is persist.
I can hope for a little fruit.

Good, you noticed it yourself.

And now maybe you should add to your Topic title, I don't! Or do I?

Does that mean that the messages of other members on this bbs are then NOT AS TRUE or NOT AS TRUE AS YOURS since their messages DO NOT stir up such opposition? [Big Grin]

love, Eden

EDEN..if you buy the fact that you are the opposition, then go out and stir something up and see if you have an urge to throw punches. [dance]
