Re: [TruthTalk] Please hear me out before ousting me.

[Wm. Taylor]

Judy,   I will continue to show you where I am, with all the resources I have, especially Scripture. Along the way I will try to explain the words that I am using. Is this really coming at you from a different angle? Please do not think that it is. The words we use have to mean something, especially when on most occasions we are using the same words to make opposite points. That aside, point well taken.   Bill Taylor ----- Original Message ----- From: Judy Taylor To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, March 05, 2004 7:37 AM Subject: [TruthTalk] Please hear me out before ousting me. From: "Wm. Taylor" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> In regards to my statement, "Okay, Judy, I'll turn my other cheek."   Judy, I am amazed, too. I am amazed, almost to the point of awe, at your knowledge of Scripture. You have obviously spent many thousands of hours in the Word, such recall, always so close to the tip of your fingers. Don't squander your wealth. Don't use your knowledge to lord it over people. Patience, charity, kindness, try these things. I did not call you my enemy, Judy. But when I step towards you, every time it feels like I am saying, Here is my cheek; go ahead, smack the hell out of it. I think when Jesus said this, he had enemies in mind. How can I know you are my sister, when all you do is smack me around?   JT: I do and have spent a lot of time in God's Word Bill and this is what I come together with other believers to fellowship around.  However, I am not proud about it and I don't have the whole loaf. I need other believers and they need me - this is how the body of Christ works. I still don't understand why you feel so personally affronted since it is not my heart to smack you or anyone around.  Are we both in pursuit of truth here? On my part I could reply that you don't ever respond to what I write ... you just appear to come at it from another angle to try to further prove what you have already said using logic and other extra biblical philosophies. Is it possible for you to show me where you are at by scripture without feeling threatened? judyt   God allows the devil to raise up heretics to make his people study         ----- Original Message ----- From: Wm.

Ask the others. I think you might be amazed by my assumptions.
