Re: Internet Evangelism

That is why submitting your mind to God is so important. Free thinking gets you into trouble.

It is not bondage when you willing submit to God and a man of God.

Folks, words mean something, words are powerful, words can and do change people's lives and YOU are aware of it.

There is a mentality that is published that "I used to be under bondage to a preacher, but look at me now... I'm free from standards" and the posters start their applause for another one that has embarked on the slippery slope and is making the transition to liberal land.

Please don't think that everyone is naive and act like there is not a thrust to proselytize.

No doubt there are some who can be influenced but generally only people who already have questions about whatever the subject is.

I always like it how you cons characterize those of us opposed to corporate extra biblical legaism as having said things like "I used to be under bondage to a preacher, but look at me now....".

You know good and well that this is not the attitude or statement of 98% of libs. You just want to put forth an extreme and incorrectly characterize a position.

This is the same old schtick as when you cons used to always use Tammy Faye Bakker and Jan Crouch as examples of women with makeup when 99.9% of women in the world would not be caught dead must less alive with makeup like that!

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

Most of us libs don't have a problem submitting to a pastor. We just don't submit to someone else's pastor.

I sometimes smile when I hear the general characterizations of what I believe, when I'm actually not too far away from the moderates on this forum.

I just don't put other Christians that don't share my point of view in Hell!

Re: Internet Evangelism

I have an agenda.

27: To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:
28: Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus: Col. 1:27-28

When in a discussion I will try to persuade concerning what I believe is the truth.

I think its good when someone is set free from doctrine such as beards are a sin or women cant trim their hair.

I think its bad when one departs the truth that baptism of water and spirit is essential to enter the kingdom of God.
