I usually say, "I can't wait to see what god is going to do when I walk out of my front door!" I don't confine god to a church building. A church building shouldn't service as a place of miracles. A church building should serve as a launching pad, to send disciples out to perform miracles, and teach the word on the highways and byways. |
This is awesome!
Please tell me about the miracles that you have witnessed "on the highways and byways".
Thanks.

Guess that struck a nerve. Your response truly rings of a person with God in their life.
The point was, what makes you think because someone says "I can't wait to see what God is going to do in church tonight" that they truly believe He is confined to a building? How do you put the two together? How do you know that that person or their church has no ministry outside the building? Please, by all means, enlighten my idiotic and stupid self.
Fact is, you have taken a statement and ASSUMED your opinion of it is truth.
And since I don't see it fit to insult people I will simply say, God Bless!

Thats not what they said, according to you. They said they can't wait for the service to see what God will do IN the service.
Should they have said instead "I dread the next church service because it's dead and God won't be doing anything there"?

Really? So your earlier comment in same thread (quoted below) does not amount to an insult?

Hmmm, much like the point of this thread.

uummm, just a slight bit of difference between saying someone is "whinning" and outright calling someone "stupid", ya think? Maybe just a little? Think about it........... not too hard.

Rather, you said "ignorant and childish whinning". Is that an insult, yes or no?

No, telling someone they are "whinning" is just that. Ignorant by definition means "lack of knowledge" usually about a particular topic. I myself am ignorant of photography, chemistry, the operation of the space shuttle, etc.
In such, the poster is ignorant of the background and true beliefs of those who make the statements he is at odds with.
