A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another." - John 13:34-35

 

[GreenMunchkin]

We've all been wronged. All of us have been at some point. We all know what it is to suffer at the hands of someone else.

But we're commanded to forgive them and to love them.

CC is CC because we don't deviate from scriptures. We should be the first forum to follow His exhortation to forgive, and to bless those who persecute us.

We're all gonna answer to God one day; both for being cruel to someone, and for not forgiving someone who was cruel. We can't control others, but we can control our own behaviour. Please, let's try to forgive.

If we all forgave, together, en masse, can you imagine how powerful that would be? How much we'd harm the enemy?

Auntie... I already knew this of these folks the thing is, I had no evidence. So I thank you for confirming my exact suspicions.

Baiting is obviously going on.

I don't really know you but .... I do know that it must be hard to be maligned behind your back when you can't even defend yourself........It's just wrong

GM, some have been wronged alot more than others.

I don't need to forgive her, it doesn't even hurt me any (I've gone thru 10 years of this trash and I'm well used to it)

My issue is this, TRUST. When someone comes over here from WWMC, posts crap like that with motive of purposely baiting, I have no reason to "fellowship" with the fruit that's been displayed -
and when they sit with others who do the same on a regular basis.
I said this before she even joined that any conservative who can join and sit with all liberals is something I take issue with - having a few conservative beliefs doesn't make someone conservative whatsoever.

And that was confirmed to me in her first thread - "ultra right wing conservatives" and "fundamentals"... she disliked.
Well, we knew that, and now we have proof of it. I don't fellowship with these people for this very reason -

Anytime you get past chatting about unicorns, rainbows & cotton candy, the real teeth come out and I have no fellowship with what lies beneath.
This is why the group of us takes issue with the influx we've seen and who we're being intimidated to fellowship with.

How much fruit do we have to keep ignoring before we figure something out?

Gee, this thread was actually going somewhere until it got derailed by this.

 

[BelindaP]

So, Nadiine. I have 'some' conservative beliefs. What do you even know about my beliefs anyway?

thank you for that Epiphany -
I'm not the only one this has been to either. Thankfully, I'm used to it and I hadn't entrusted any friendship.

Matthew 5:11-12 Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

well gee, the thread you made listed stuff when you invited people to ask you about your beliefs etc. ... and I have no interest in continuing w/ you in this.

K, no one has been deliberately nasty to me, I don't think...
But - I forgive anyone who has hurt me.
And ask forgiveness of anyone I have hurt.
Sometimes I respond without thinking...so anyone I have hurt or offended, I am really sorry.

Hiya, Marty

Am so glad you're here

I think I'm glad I'm here too!

 

[Nadiine]

derailed by what? THE TRUTH???

 

[BelindaP]

Ah, she admits to lurking the thread. And were my beliefs liberal somehow?

 

[Epiphanygirl]

thank you for that Epiphany -

Good to hear.............I just don't like what I'm reading and seeing in this forum...........it seems the liberals invaded here because their own forum wasn't going anywhere and they were bored?? to further cause strife gossip over at IIDB about people here then cause havoc............am I getting the gist of it????
I've been gone for a while......really shocked by whats going on

 

[Criada]

Please, could you two take this to PM?
Cos is really not helpful for everyone else.

 

[PreachersWife2004]

Amen, Criada. AMEN.

 

[BelindaP]

WHERE is this supposed liberal invasion? I'm just not seeing it.

Matthew 5:39-42 But I tell you, Do not resist an evil person. If someone strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also. 40And if someone wants to sue you and take your tunic, let him have your cloak as well. 41If someone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles. 42Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you.
