I just want to share how I feel about attacking...
God is love! ...and many on these forums will tell us that.
I believe it, and although I'm a rotten example, I'd like very much to see a lot of love on my little board.
That's why I don't mind people attacking the topic, but if they aren't able to refrain from attacking each other, then I do usually step in and start deleting posts and asking that they refrain from that sort of behavior.
I see a lot of boards that claim to be christian, and yet they are merely a place for people to fight and call each other names and bicker over themselves... God's Word, and what it teaches is not really their focus, and probably never was. The topics, and the truth usually get trampled in the dirt.
Gal 5:14 For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
Gal 5:15 But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.
Gal 5:16 This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.
Gal 5:17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.
I have a TV that features soap operas every day and all I have to do, if I want a huge dose of carnality, and human nature, is to set my TiVo to record... then, I can come home later and wallow in it.
I guess I just want my little board to be different, and so it doesn't yield before the average forum users idea of what a forum should be. That's why not many people come here...
I'm glad you are here, and remember, we have quite a few topics to address, and if you feel you would like to share your views on any of them, please go ahead... attack the topic, not each other!
May God bless your understanding as you seek to serve Him,
Phil
