Forgive me Meshak, or don't. If I am willing to open my spiritual heart in discussion with you, but you feel it's okay to not open yours and "judge" mine while your at it... what is the point in acknowledging anything that comes from your mouth, mind, heart or "spirit"?
You have right to your judgment and opinions like everyone else.
Lon is using tact and he has that right. I have grown to appreciate his modes of communication. Could you please verify with me that you have no intention of sharing your spiritual heart, but merely pointing fingers at mine?
Lon,
Thank you for giving me opportunity to discuss what Jesus says about Christianity.
My first question to you is:
1) what does Jesus say about how to become His disciple or follower?
Thank you again.

[MENTION=12969]Sherman[/MENTION] ... I can't believe I'm saying this... This is a loosely guised callout thread. I would like to make peace with [MENTION=6696]Lon[/MENTION] and the Calvinists by doing what I have accused them of publicly...
I believe ToL has "rules" about Name dropping, callout threads. If this party of [MENTION=6696]Lon[/MENTION] condemnation that didn't turn out exactly like [MENTION=13959]meshak[/MENTION] thought it would ... was magically locked because of ToL policy... I would say it's because of ... (Jude 1:12) and it's clear accuracy in the matter of the OP's author.

Your assessment is accurate. This is a veiled callout and soapbox. This is turned into another soapbox on the 'evils' of belonging to a 'mainstream' church and believing in the trinity. She didn't really want dialog. Lon has been very gracious with her and yet she kept smacking his hands so to speak. With this last post, I am going to lock this thread, unless Lon messages me and desires to add more replies. Then I will reopen the thread.
Putting this thread in the archive under oddities. Interesting study in bait and switch by the OP. Her target though, is very gracious, calm and level headed.
The bait is laid in the OP. The switch you will find here
