You practice this David and it does not appear to help
you with Lance, John, or Gary, but thanks for the suggestion.
Judy, instead of comparing your writings with those of Lance and John,
ask yourself whether or not there might not be more room for graciousness in
writing things like, "God has spoken" or "amazing how the devil jumps in and
shuts it down." It may be that your comments are warranted, but perhaps
there is a more gracious way of expressing it. If nothing else, practice
being a little more subtle and you will come across as being more
intellectually urbane. :-)
Peace be with you.
David Miller.
Here we go again - with you illustrating my point
made below as well. All five of this mornings lines consistare
solely of your diagnosis and personal opinion about persons who are members of this
list.
Thanks. You illustrate my central point. This
is why I continue to say that your intent is not as perceived by some. I
DO BELIEVE IT IS NOT YOUR INTENT TO HURT OR WOUND. BTW, I also believe
that you do not write to accrue to yourself allies. However, you have them
in Kevin, Terry, David, Christine and, cd. (Linda strikes me as a Proverbs
31 kinda woman. She appears as a friend to the friendless and a raconteur.
When she goes beyond one line she is often a delight to read.)
You are Bill and not Lance who made the
"accusation" to begin with but apparently you two are
open to the same kinds of thoughts. ATST the two of you are either unaware or ignorant as to
just how patronizing and arrogant most of what
you write to the list is for others.
Most everything Lance writes is an opinion that
includes a non flattering judgment toward somebody's person rather than
a contribution toward the subject at hand. And you Bill are
so far off into academia that you are speaking in another
tongue
most of the time so far as I am concerned
anyway.
The red letters below are definitely
NOT "invective filled" I wrote them in good faith without
the intent to injure or wound and I do not consider myself the enemy of
either of you. It would be a good thing if both of you
learned just who your enemy is in reality because this is just one
more of his firey darts.
Great peace have they that love Thy Law
and nothing offends them (causes them to stumble)
Psalm
119:165
What "invective" filled language
Lance?
Examples please....
Oh the ignorance of those who don't
see things the way you do again Lance along with the fact that you
are unable or unwilling to produce an example of invective filled
language coming from me.
Let's see "INVECTIVE"
Okay, more
below:
Hmmm - Just as I thought, the Holy
Spirit has been fired and men have taken over; men who exalt Greek
present passive verbs..
OK Kevin God has spoken ... so now forever hold your
peace.....
[I]t's not easy to try and sort
out what Bill is saying here with Plato sitting in the RH
corner
Amazing how the devil
jumps in and shuts it down just when it starts getting good isn't
it??
Thank you for being a friend,
Bill

"INVECTIVE"
Noah Webster 1828 - Invective Noun .... A
railing speech or _expression_; something uttered or written intended
to cast opprobrium, censure or reproach on another; a harsh or
reproachful accusation. It differs from
reproof as the latter may come from a friend and be intended
for the good of the person reproved; but invective proceeds from an enemy, and is
intended to give pain or to injure.
Is followed by against ie: He uttered severe invectives against the
unfortunate general.
Adjective: Satirical, abusive, railing
No Lance, it is not my ignorance it is your lack of
understanding. You feed on SNL, Bono, Dylan etc. and the
fruit of it is an inability to discern a friend from an enemy.
I'm really sorry about that.

I've always thought you unaware of

doing it, IMO.

AND I DARESAY Judy, that your
invective-filled language on TT would equal or surpass that of
John Calvin WITHOUT QUESTION!! (In all candor so would mine,
Kevin's, Dean's, John's, and Linda's). The 'unnamed'
regularly display a model of 'engagement' that we all might
aspire to.
Cd: 'Calvin's beliefs are of Satan-He was an evil man'
says Dean Moore
Obviously spoken by someone who has
never read the man.
Not one who has ever read 'The Insitute'
would ever say such as this!
Borrow the 2 volume set, Dean.
Prayerfully, give it a few hours. You may thereafter wish
to apologize.
Noone who has ever read Alice in
Wonderland would ever say the Lewis Carroll
was a cocaine addict
either.
I daresay that right now
Dean knows more of Christ than Calvin did when he
wrote his
Institutes and isn't Christ
alone the standard for His followers and is He not
the same
yesterday, today, and forever -
unchanged by time or culture?
Calvin's actions were unbiblical
in the extreme but were consistent with his
theology
Isn't that fact reason enough to
question Calvinism itself and to examine it
carefully
from Scripture which is
apparently what Dean has been doing already?
I would say the advice above is
obviously spoken by someone who has never
read Dean - Why not take your own
advice Lance and you may thereafter wish
to apologize to him.
