You asked for a just one scripture to say we should judge. I gave you two, 1 Cor. 6.2-3.
2 Do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world will be judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters? 3 Do you not know that we shall judge angels? How much more, things that pertain to this life? (1 Cor. 6)
Apology accepted. I'm just glad you didn't bet me a $23,000 commode--I would have had to refuse it.

NO, you MIS READ...I said CRITICISE...NOT judge. We are to judge FRUIT. Where does it say it is ok to rip people apart and call it criticism?? HUGE difference friend. The thing is the Word is clear about NOT criticizing...

WHAT?????????? How bout you back off a bit ey? If she is such a shining example..I ask for proof...IN the BIble...can it be proven>? How about her insulting others? That is ok?? WHEN SHE apologizes for her comments...

:scratch: Ooooo-kay. You have an interesting idea of what an insult is, apparently.

You can think what you want. But IMO, you're the one who is being judgmental here.

But the judgement going on here is based on lies and presumption not proven facts. So then the judgement is not right.

But you have "judged" that the charges are “lies and presumptions.” You don’t know that any more than someone who claims they are true.

I would do it and I would gently explain how a $23,000 commode is a bit extravagant and how it could, in fact, be a damaging gift if such information would get in the wrong hands (which it obviously has done). And I would suggest that he give the $23,000 to some who really could use it.

There was a women that gave her minister an envelope every Sunday with 10.00 in it, he accepted a few times, but I guess his conscious started bothering him about it, So the next time she tried to give it to him, he refused, explaining that she needed it much more then he. She got very indignant with the Pastor and said, Who are you to refuse my gift, and cut me off Gods supply by my giving? The minister thought about it, and thanked her for the gift.

IF you go back and read HER post, she is the one stating her 'stuff' about Christianity etc. Read what is posted K??

Having read it all, twice, I repeat: think what you want (as you obviously will) but I still think you're the one being judgmental here.

That’s a good pastor, IMO. I would have said, under similar circumstances (which I have also faced), “Thank you. I know just the family who could use this.” And I would have passed it on.

Without proof then they are mere lies.

I know that nowadays innocent till proven guilty no longer exist. But please let's give these people the benefit of the doubt.

When I was accused of negelecting Cecil there were a few that stood by me the rest decided that since the accusation was made then it must be true. Today after being cleared of those charges there are still some that believes that lie.

This is the same thing happening here. An accusation was made. And some of "God's People" has decided that it is true. Where is the proof?

Here are my posts:


And you can go ahead and judge his heart and motives and everything else. Ahhhh! I love "Christianity"!!!!!!!!!!


[FONT=&quot]So I suppose that next you are going to say that these were hypothetical and not questions directed at cutting his heart/emotions/whatever down into itty bitty pieces...but rather a "correction' or 'rebuke' or something stupid like that. If you're going to attack a person then at least be bold about it. But don't hide behind the 1 question in this paragraph of jabs. Shoot your fellow christian with integrity.

And btw....I am a Christian. [/FONT]


[FONT=&quot]Cause it's supposed to come to ME!!!!!!!!!!!! DUH Renee!!!!!!!!

I thought I had taught you all better than that! *sigh*[/FONT]



So which one am I being lynched for?????? I bet it's that last one. I always get in trouble for that one......

I don’t know.

But then, neither do you.

neither actually. Just don't use me as an excuse. If you are a christian that is good...I am glad to hear that. If you are seeking as your icon shows...than don't use me as your excuse not to be one. Sorry, I don't put up with that. You are responsible for your own decisions.

*****

Without proof they are merely charges, not lies. A lie would have to be proven to be a lie, wouldn’t it?
