Re: [TruthTalk] Contention

[Dave Hansen]

DAVEH:  I'm glad to hear that, Kevin.  From what I've seen, your ministry appears to be confrontational, in an attempt to draw the apathy out of those who don't view religion as you do.  I thought using anger would be one of the tools you might use to do that.  If I'm wrong in that assessment, my apologies for misunderstanding.     Yes.....I don't know what brings more strife....politics or religion.  Nor can I quite figure out why, other than I suspect Satan may have a hand in it.     BTW....If you aren't angry with me, does that mean I can be on your holiday dinner guest list?     :-) Kevin Deegan wrote: Yes you are wrong. I never intend to anger folks. If I wanted to anger, don't you think I could a better job at such?  That is a silly question. Folks with a Religious spirit do tend to get hot though don't they? Dave Hansen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: DAVEH:   LOL........Naw, if you've been around TT very long, you'd know I'm pretty slow to anger, Kevin.  However, I do wonder if that is one of your techniques when street preaching.  Is it your goal when street preaching to stir others to anger?  From my LDS perspective, it would appear that is what you try to do by waving underwear at the LDS folks at Conference time.  Am I wrong on that?

DAVEH:  The question is not whether I accept the passage, Kevin....but rather if you accept it.  Do you think the contending part applies to you?    When are you gonna stop the "foolish genealogies"?   No contending about the Law! It applies to ALL   Where do you get thye teaching that "contention is of the Devil"? DAVEH:   From the BofM, 3Nep 11.......... 29 For verily, verily I say unto you, he that hath the spirit of contention is not of me, but is of the devil, who is the father of contention, and he stirreth up the hearts of men to contend with anger, one with another. ..........Is it your desire to stir men to anger, Kevin?   Dave Hansen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Kevin Deegan wrote: > And you know LDS say contention is of the Devil.
