RE: [TruthTalk] Intentional sin -- the Judas factor

Judy, It seems that some sleights are considered more offensive than others, depending upon how the recipient chooses to react.  I choose whenever possible to not be easily offended when someone makes an insulting remark about myself personally.  Others take offense at what seems to me to be a sincere, credible question.  If Slade really wants to monitor insulting remarks on TT, I’m afraid he is going to get very tired very fast.

How is it that you are not offended by the statements below by John to Izzy and by Lance in response to what I wrote? IMO being labelled 'ridiculous' 'silly' and 'foolish' is ad hominem and way more insulting than honest questions to those who promote an aberrent spirituality which is contrary to the Word of God on this list.     John wrote: A really ridiculous statement.   "Lord, I believe, help me in my unbelief."  J   Lance wrote: That's where God is looking and, so should we. What a waste of time so many of these 'quibbles' are! They are both silly and, foolish.   Doesn't God's Word mean anything to you?" is insulting and needs to stop. -- slade   On Behalf Of Judy Taylor jt: Ding Dong you're wrong Lance, we can know the eternal destiny of Judas because Jesus Himself excluded him in His prayer when He told the father He hadn't lost any given Him other than the son of perdition.  How do you get around that? Doesn't God's Word mean anything to you? Must everything subject itself to 'incarnationalism'
