I'm not complaining JD, just pointing out an obvious
disconnect in what you profess. Young ppl need to know
what Joshua told Israel - We have an obligation to
set before them life and death and tell them that they need
to "Choose ye this day whom
ye will serve"
On the TT List you appear (to me at least) to be
completely taken with what you call the "larger context" and the
"Christ event". I am wondering how you preach
this and what the fruit of it would be in the lives
of the young ppl
you may influence from your role in leadership
because to me it does not sound much different
from what I was
taught early on in the
Methodist Church ie that the death of Christ was a historical event that was
supposed to
benefit me in some
way. No Holy Spirit conviction there at all, just religious dead
works. jt

Judy. That is silly. Talk about YOUR teaching, YOUR
distress, your whatever and see how often I offer a complaint. It
won't happen. You absolutely love to bring things down onto a
personal level. You do this. I respond in kind, often,
and that is not good. I admit that. Will you make the
same admission? JD

Just responding to your response JD. The personal turn is on your end - you are the one who began the focus on "your preaching" in response to my comment about your "larger context theology" so where am I supposed to go from there since I never have and probably never will sit under your preaching other than on the TT list. judyt
