As I recall (or reread), you asked us for our opinion and our thoughts. So, when you get them, you want to get defensive?
I asked a question, for the sake of clarification, nothing more. Ease back, playboy, ease back.
But, I'll ask this question. While you're being the MOM at one church, where ARE you going to get feed, Mr. Sheep; what's happening to your soul (that's too important for the church that hired you to feed you) while your leading the music ministry?
Just wondering.
well actually I asked to be schooled ie. educated instructed, mentored
the last time i went to grad school to be a teacher i was taught not to criticize your students and that it wasnt necessary to use sarcasm to get your point accross all it does is cause the student to be defensive.
so if I got defensive maybe it was some criticism and the hint of sarcasm that caused that (you think)
I will apologize for
sounding harsh
but everything I said concerning judgement and logic is scriptual and if the word convicts you dont get mad at me i ddnt write the bible
God does use the foolish things to confound the wise
and the word does say judge not another master's servant for he stands before his master to be judged.
I was merely reminding you of that.
most of the other people on the other side of this debate said what they said in love without bringing my logic or thought process into question and the one or two that did managed to do so without sounding the least bit sarcastic
and right after you said what you said the very next post took on the same judgemental tone so I felt a need to remind us all what the word says about judging servants of God
touch not my annointed the word says
and if you think being called a hierling or being likened to a mercenary is just harmless taliking The word also says there is power of life and death in the tongue and if you put a label upon me that is unjust I will quickly remove it just like any of you should
never let your good be evil spoken of never never
and I think you meant pray boy because I aint no play boy
just to set the record straight on that as well.
make you points without attacking my character and we will have no sounds of harshness what soever
if you were an ignorant man Sjon i would not have taken the time to even respoind to you
but you are a Intelligent man with what I imagine is a heart for God and although not always correct I believe you do what you do for the good so I respond to you
as an older brother in christ taliking to a younger man who is trying to be the Best man God made him to be
so please take it as such without criticizing you I can pull your coat.
if it was merely for clarification that you asked what you asked i would have treated it accordingly but you said that what i was saying wasnt logical and likened me to being a mercenary (or at least my analogy) so i responded to that.
you also said it sounded a little mercernary like so i responded to that as well.
like the brother said we are just talking so i will keep it in that context not mad at you sjon
i respect you
always did
you have your way and I have mine but I will stand up for what I believe make no mistake about it/
But i will do my best to do it in love
And I do receive
the fact that if i am not feeling Like i am being fed where I minister I need to make it my business to be fed.
somewhere
but even in that I must be careful not to challenge or ursurp the pastors vision and misson as he is led by God
so to answer the question about where i go to get fed I used to go to a mens bible study run by a pastor and this deacon and I learned a tremendous amount.
I sometimes return to my home church for friday night service. and Currently I am making my way to Allen Cathedral for sunrise service to get under some real teaching.
very good questions though I need to make it my business to get fed for real.
