There were a couple of good points about the book Woobadooba, for example we are to serve God, God put us here for a purpose. A lot of people, Christians, don't know that.

I am reading "Steps To Christ". An Adventist Church in TN mailed me. I like it, it's a good read.

Steps To Christ is a good book, especially the last chapter.

My favorite thought in the book is this one:

"Jesus did not suppress one word of truth, but He uttered it always in love. He exercised the greatest tact and thoughtful, kind attention in His intercourse with the people. He was never rude, never needlessly spoke a severe word, never gave needless pain to a sensitive soul.

He did not censure human weakness. He spoke the truth, but always in love. He denounced hypocrisy, unbelief, and iniquity; but tears were in His voice as He uttered His scathing rebukes. He wept over Jerusalem, the city He loved, which refused to receive Him, the way, the truth, and the life. They had rejected Him, the Saviour, but He regarded them with pitying tenderness. His life was one of self-denial and thoughtful care for others.

Every soul was precious in His eyes. While He ever bore Himself with divine dignity, He bowed with the tenderest regard to every member of the family of God. In all men He saw fallen souls whom it was His mission to save."-- Taken from the first chapter.

There is a website that you can go to to read some of her other books if you want:

Is its possible you and others like you can respond or argue your point with Stormyone without personal attacks or comments like this. Or we have we lost the ability to disagree without being disagreeable?
Pleeze!

But he is just as guilty.

Taken from another thread in response to me saying that I believe Noah sought to tell the people around him of the impending doom of God's judgement, to give them a chance to repent and be saved:

StormyOne said:
woobad it is clear you choose to believe the myths that have been told for years rather than what the bible clearly says... it is apparent that you believe you know everything....

In fact, I even said some things in that thread that I shouldn't have said. The point is: We are all guilty of being unkind to each other.

Here's the link: http://www.christianforums.com/t2876910-rex84-fema-executive-order-concentration-campssigns-of-the-end.html

By the way, I don't believe I know everything.

That's why I provided the link. I have nothing to hide.
Good because if you will remember, it was this comment by you that made things personal....

You said to me,
Stormy, it is quite clear to me that you pretend to be open-minded, but you really aren't.

It is useless to try to convince you of the potentiality for anything but what you already believe.

You are over 40 aren't you?
Notice you did not address my point, you attacked me....

You will notice, if you even care to take a look, in my post that I too admitted that I said things in that thread that were not appropriate. Hence, this is what I said in post #47 of this thread:

I'm not trying to justify my bad manners, but you are obviously trying to justify yours!

And this dialogue has become futile and unedifying at this point. Therefore, don't expect a further response from me.

P.S. I apologise for my crude behavior in that post.

Gee, I didn't post StormyOne is an evil bad guy. I posted he needs a vacation like a Disney Cruise. The burn out level for people who work with the retarded is high. The burn out level for people who care for others is high period.
