Re: [TruthTalk] Restoration versus condemnation-David Miller

[Dave Hansen]

you stated..."and pray you would change your back stabbing ways" DAVEH:   Wow, Dean.   You have now presented us with an interesting question to ponder.  You posted a few of my words (above) taken wholly out of context, which diametrically changed their meaning to exactly the opposite of what I intended to say.   One can only assume this was done with evil intentions, as anybody reading the context of my comments to you will readily understand what I was saying.   I'll post your question and my entire answer in reply, and I'll underline the full pertinent sentence that you only partially quoted...... ++++++++++++++++++ cd: How can you respect me while warring against my God? DAVEH:   ???   Where did you get that, Dean?  Why do you feel I am warring against your God?   Have I done anything to belittle or condemn you, or your belief in God?   If you sincerely believe in Jesus....I have no quarrel with you.   I respect your belief in the Lord, even though I may disagree with the way you practice it at times.     That is not to say that I agree with your doctrinal beliefs either.  But I respect you as a Christian who is following Christ to the dictates of your conscious.  You do not even have to respect me, or my beliefs.....I will still respect you for your sincere beliefs in the Lord.      From my LDS perspective, I truly believe you and I are both literally spirit children of our Heavenly Father.  Even if you were to stab me in the back, I would still respect that heavenly kinship be tween us and pray that you would change your (backstabbing) ways.  I know that is sometimes hard....but I think it is what Jesus would want me to do. ++++++++++++++++++ .........It is quite evident I was trying to convey the notion that I believe we have brotherly roots that precede this mortal life, and I prefaced my comment with the term Even if   to suggest I would still consider you a brother of sorts Even if   you were a bad guy who is out to do harm to me....... Even if  you were to stab me in the back, I would still respect that heavenly kinship be tween us and pray that you would change your (backstabbing) ways. .........By posting my words out of context, Dean.....it is very apparent somebody is trying to deceive other TTers as to what was really said.   So, back to the big question, Dean.  Was it you who edited out the first part of my comment in order to deceive?   Or.....Did somebody else search the archives for my quote, and they in turn edited out the pertinent part of my comment to make it appear as though I accused you of backstabbing before forwarding it on to you?   Who is the guilty one attempting to deceive........Is it you, Dean???

This in my view-at the time-was an attempt to imply I back stabbed you (a way of getting the idea on the table)-and I responded as such. From memory-in a later tread-you stated I was a back stabber-to which I responded-"when have I ever back stabbed you" and gave a definition of back stabbing. But due to my E-mail providers ability to only keep those messages I send (as standard) I would have to do a search on TT . Which I am not inclined to do at this time-but if you insist-I will as they are somewhere around the 14-16 of Oct (as soon as I figure out how). cd: DaveH On 10/14/05 5:33:33pm you stated..."and pray you would change *_/As for turning the other cheek each time you insult me (drug user,backstabber,...etc) I ignor it and still bring Jesus to you. /_* DAVEH: Are you hallucinating again, Dean? I never insulted you by calling you a drug user, or backstabber. I certainly might have asked you what you were smoking, as some of the claims you make are so screwed up that they sound as if they are from somebody who's mind has been influenced by drugs. But...I'm pretty sure you aren't a doper, despite sounding like one at times. And again FTR.....I never claimed you are a backstabber.
