I don't believe that God is pleased with all the vultures on forums like this that are just waiting for someone to fall down so that they can kill and devour them. What gives any of us the right to put down another? Doesn't the Bible tell us to PRAY for one another - and if we see a brother in a fault to GO TO THEM IN LOVE ? It doesn't say go to the world and declare it wherever you can.
Shame on you!

But Committed.... at least we know that someone in our midst is perfect. I'm sure they must be and are following all scripture.
Maybe they overlooked these passages....
Mt 7:3* And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
Mt 7:4* Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?
Mt 7:5* Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother’s eye.
Lu 6:41* And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but perceivest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
Lu 6:42* Either how canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, let me pull out the mote that is in thine eye, when thou thyself beholdest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine own eye, and then shalt thou see clearly to pull out the mote that is in thy brother’s eye.
Must have been important with that many references.
And what about these additional verses....
Mt 7:1* Judge not, that ye be not judged.
Mt 7:2* For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
Lu 6:37* Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven:
Uh oh! I guess someone will say I'm judging. Don't think so; don't mean to. Just reading what they posted in reference to what the scripture says. And then they will say they were just judging the afore mentioned church by what the scripture says. Where does this stuff stop?
Been Thinkin
