Dennis,
Now that is the quote i can live with, sometimes it get a bit tough when serving but
that is exactly what we are doing. Training to serve the least of these our Brothers
and Sisters as we would have it done to us.

The world thinks it is at a banquet, they are enjoying themselves for the most part but some folks are choking on their food. Some people have even been given very bads meals.
Those who have had their eyes and ears opened....are now waiters and busboys....they know the Chef and they are learning what is really good to eat..... but when they even try to make suggestions .......they are scorned and rediculed and belittled by their own family groups.

Thanks, but that's not quite what I had in mind Dr. Carol.
My point is we should be servants now as we will be servants in the next life.
This whole exercise is about becoming humble and meek (among other things).
We should not consider ourselves better in any way, because we are not.

Douglas Wayne Thomas:
WhoamI - not about Hagee, he is too easy to pick on:
Offer made to Adam
God looks down and notices that Adam is all alone while all the animals have companions, so he decides to create a companion for man as well. He comes to see Adam and says to him, "Adam, you are my greatest creation and therefore, I am going to create for you the ultimate companion. She will worship the very ground you walk on, she will long for you and no other, she will be highly intelligent, she will wait on you hand and foot and obey your every command, she will be beautiful, and all it will cost you is an arm and a leg." Thinking for a few moments, Adam replies, "What could I get for a rib?"

JeffH,
Very good post. I know I catch myself alot thinking about how I was lucky to have my eyes opened, and I still have trouble understanding how the blind cannot see... but it is God's will. The pride seeps in too quickly. We are no better than anyone else, so I should not mock or question anyone when they don't see.
I have a long way to go if I am to overcome.

--- Quote ---It's the cornerstone of BT and Ray's approach to teaching the Gospel to expose those who contradict and teach right doctrine. It's a solid scriptural approach. It doesn't matter whether the ones teaching what contradicts are willfully lying or not. It is the teachings themselves that stand in contradiction to the Truth.

Then why are we calling those people liars? Who gave them the teachings? God? Indirectly, YES. Those people aren't lying, Satan is. They are supposed to believe the things they believe.
You and I and everyone else here are MUCH more accountable for our sin than those deceived people. I doubt that, at Judgment time, those people are going to be held accountable for teaching and believing that hell is a place of torture.
Jesus exposed the double-minded Pharisees. They knew the truth and were deceitful. To everyone else He showed love. He was compassionate. Pastor Joe and parishioner Sally aren't deceitful in their belief in hell.
