I think it can become too easy to get into debates about spiritual matters, but I believe it is important for all of us to make time to share cheer with one another, even those we disagree with at times. Just wanted to give a reminder that it doesn't always have to be a war, and even then sometimes those battles are fought through rejoicing.



Psa 32:11 Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart.

David,



It's all good. It's just discussion. Maybe I could've been clearer. God bless.

David, I believe you mean well, but sometimes I believe we have to step back and let God handle things. Jesus exposed false teachers, He can still do it today. It is aggravating seeing false teachings in this world, but the says that the world will wax worse and worse, and there's nothing we can do to change it. All we can do is try to correct those who purposefully spread false doctrine. We should not expose those with anger in hearts, with the wisdom that is given to us by the Lord. And if that fails then we should pray for them to be saved. There is power in prayer, because we pray to a powerful God. Vengeance is mine sayth the Lord.
