What's The Difference ?

WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE ?

What Is The Difference Between

Open Sin
VS
Hidden Sin ?

Evangelistly Speaking
VS
Plain Out Lying ?

Giving More Than Possible
VS
Giving 110% ?

A Sexual Indescretion
VS
Plain Out Adultery ?

Dating A Woman While She Is STILL Legally Married
VS
Dating Someone Else's Wife ?

Watching T V
VS
Watching a Video ?

Watching A Video
VS
Watching A Movie ?

Tithing On Net Income
VS
Stealing ?

" L.W."
VS
" R.N." ?

" B.B."
VS
" F.H." ?

Or
" G.G. " telling everyone at the Mississippi Campmeeting
That " BORAT " Has Just Recieved The 'HOLY GHOST'
VS
Being A FALSE PROPHET ?

In all fairness, the 'G.G.' you speak of was not intentionally lying but responding to a man that, from all outward appearances, received the Holy Ghost just like many others that same night. Yes, he did talk in tongues... albeit one he created to sound like a spiritual manifestation.

He, 'Borat' himself, was the only 'liar' in that situation. My friend, "G. G.", was just a mistaken individual that was swayed by the same visible and audible elements that 99% of us would have interpreted as one receiving the Holy Ghost. It's easy to say 'where was his discernment' but if it had been a stranger in most any of our local Churches intent on 'duping' us the incredibly vast majority would have rejoiced at what they perceived as someone getting the Holy Ghost.

I'd venture to say this isn't the first time any of us have seen the Devil speak in tongues!

To that end, there IS a magnanimous difference.

Thank You for such an on point defense of OUR friend, GG!

Amen. Thank you for putting it that terms.
How many of us hit the ball out of the park every time? How many of us have never missed it at any time?

[rgcraig]

Wow, Bishop thought provoking questions!

What is the difference in those?

There is no difference.

If there ever is a seemingly difference, it's only because someone is trying to justify that there is a difference.

I think it is far beneath you to try and relate this. It makes me wonder if you have some other "axe to grind", with GG.
If you can say that you have never been deceived by anyone, then you could say this with a clear conscience. If you have been, then you need to look in the mirror and read your statements.
As someone who has been at FCF since the opening, I am disappointed at your post.

In all fairness, G.G. did make us look like a bunch of baffoons (sp?). Yet, I don't believe he did it intentionally, and he can preach for me any day of the week.
