Well, we are not getting much done...we are stopped again at a hotel. Brother Alvear's leg is so swollen...so we are just going to rest for the next couple days. He is just not able to be on it yet. And his knee is beyond describing.
I read these posts to him...He said. strange how people condemn those that are doing what we are not even doing...(and he said some more) then he finished by saying Janice, when all is said and done and the Judge closes the books we will really know how He felt about those that knew less than we do but did more spreading what they knew than those who feel they have all truth...Speak no evil of anyone..."

My husband is a wise man. I have been married to him 35 years and trust his judgment and opinions and Bible teaching. He is kind and humble to those that may differ from us but he is not judgemental and tells us and our church what he feels is the pure word of the Lord for us.

He has done a good job! I called Brazil yesterday and talked with one of the office workers and she told me our church was packed full of people worshipping and praising the Lord.

Sherri never put this thread on here for a debate whether the people she mentioned were saved or not she rejoiced at what she saw a people doing. At least that is how I understood the thread. If I am wrong please tell me but that is what I understood.

Sherri knows what we believe she herself mentioned that...

It seems to bother some people that Sherri and I are friends...would that be your problem Rev? I sure hope not.

Why is there a need to draw sinners to our church at all- why if they go to ANY church by this reasoning they are saved.
I believe in the Apostolic message. I don't know who God will choose to save outside of the Apostolic message. It is not for me or anyone else to judge.

I believe we should witness to all denominations and nonbelievers alike. I don't believe in condemning non apostolics. What is so hard to grasp? Can't you believe and witness your beliefs without judging the salvation of others?

Sis. Alvear, your husband is VERY WISE and knows God's heart.

I don't believe the scripture used before by The Rev is meant to allow people that thing they are spiritual to be so judgmental.

Bro. A needs the rest to heal his injuries. Praying God touches him and a speedy recovery takes place!

Sorry but you are wrong.

(2Pe 3:9) The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us–ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

Repentence is part of his will so he does hear them.

(1Jo 5:14) And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us:

How then can we come to different conclusions concerning non-apostolics?

To be "spiritual" imo is to understand what Christ meant when He said, "judge not". You quoting another scripture does not negate the need to obey a very direct command. Was Paul referring to the condemation of man or to all matters related to spirituality?
bump for the Rev, concerning I cor 2:14

I KNOW he hears them.

You are the one that said he doesn't listen to sinners.
