I did not argue the point. I did accept what Jonathan said at face value,
as evidenced by my asking for details. If I was arguing the point, I would
have told him that you have changed for the worse or not at all and given
reasons why. Instead, I accepted what he said and asked to hear more
details from his perspective concerning how you have been changed for the
better. Have you ever considered that Jonathan's perspective might not be
identical to yours, and that you might actually be blessed to hear from him
on this?
It does seem that you always read my comments in a negative light, always
looking for some way to trap me in my words. Try to think the best of me.
I am not your enemy.
You may be right. It is just that I have written several posts expressing my appreciation for this forum. In point of fact, David, I would not trust you with personal information or personal confession at this time. I have no reason to believe that you regard me as a brother in good standing (in Christ). Not whinning about that -- just making an observation.
But I will hold my fire (somewhat) in the future.
