Let's give her the benefit of the doubt and uplift her instead of preparing her for failure.
HO,

It wasn't nothing but the truth. She does also have issues with males, which is one of her main problems. Would you like to say that I am wrong about that?

If she does do it and God hasn't called her to be a missionary, she will fail every time. I know of pastors who weren't called to be a pastor and they have failed every time.

This thread has taken a very unfortunate turn in my opinion.

I tend to agree. "If" is a huge word with a world full of dying, hurting, lost people. Especially to those who have the truth and have heard the Great Commission of Christ himself.

"If" could be the difference in someone hearing the truth and someone simply simply sitting back and waiting on some sign or wonder to confirm that they should do what they've been commissioned to do already.

Lets be fair here, so lets say it's true Rhoni has issues with men!

As someone who's been on these types of forum for sometime now, 4 years, I can say this much, Rhoni has reason and a real cause! From my view point this woman has taken much heat from pastor and the likes on these forums for her view points she been beat down, even called a lair once for saying her pastor used her, some even went as far as contacting the pastor, and called him a liar as well.
It's true some men don't like or respect women who can think themselves out of a box and speak their own mind openly, nor one who'll even take it further and say they are wrong and question their authority! Nope this don't go over well, she strong, this poses a threat! After all godly woman are taught to sit by the sideline keep them flap shut!
Like the Pharisees before us, we are so afraid that we will lose our access to heaven that we make rules and laws that control our lives and the lives of others. While there is a clear need for laws and rules, it must be understood that laws should never be so constructed as to harm others. Laws should be made to prevent injustice, not cause it.

So if she has or had an issues it's REAL!!! Reminder there have been women who brought about major change throughout history due to standing up going against the grain!

Rosa Louise McCauley Parks, she refused to obey the bus driver who order that she give up her seat to make room for a white passenger.

Her actions set off a chain of events that forever change our history, it took just one person to say, ENOUGH!


The only thing Rhoni guilty for is putting her thought out on a forum for all to view!

This kinda on the same lines as saying, sense the fist wheel didn't come out round, it failed, don't even try again!

Unless you know her personally, you don't know what her problems are.

Whether you are wrong or not has nothing to do with her not accepting what you are telling her. There are other men who have posted on this thread that have given her advice as well as uplifted her.

You aren't her husband nor her daddy. Your being a man has nothing to do with her reaction to you, IMO.

We see examples of failures all throughout the Bible, but the Bible says they were called of God.

None of us have arrived.

The problem with Rhoni is attacking men because of her having a bad relationship. If she wants to go be a missionary, then why don't she just do it and stop talking about it. Talking does not get it done, it is by doing that gets it done. I could say more, but it would be useless to speak the truth with certain people on here.
