"Peaceful Oasis" Under Attack By Who, (or is it whom)?

<< < (6/6)

Beloved,

There is no sarcasm in any of my posts. I have no axe to grind and only learn and do what i can to edify
the brethren. If you detect any sarcasm it is not from me or my comments, those were observations about
my understanding of Royalty and not meant to besmirch or question anyone's statement. Again i say any
contradiction was as to rank not of anything else. I do spend most of my day and evening reading or
listening to Ray's Audios.

Ray has alluded to some question about the Ruler of this World ie:  GOD Blinds while Satan decieves.

Please do not see conflict when there is none; there has been more than enough of that lately i think.

Peace and Understanding Sister,

george.

The purpose of this forum is for us to be able to discuss Rays teachings and help us understand them. Joe started this topic was trying to look at this issue of satans distortion of truth.

Your post started
Hi Joe and other mature ones, may this child speak  .
Just a little levity; Cat herding anyone .

You then wrote a lot of confusing scriptures and I replied to what I perceived to be a question

I did not see where you were making any clear statements and I guess I did not appreciate the idea that your original opening implied somehow that we posters have this attitude about ourselves...All genuine opinions are respected here.

Also I tried to be diplomatic about the format...it is extremely difficult to read sentences that are disconnected.  Then when you wrote that you did this deliberately...it made me think that you were purposely making your post hard to read.

We have seen too much of Babylonian ideas being perpetrated recently here on the forum and many feel the need to rebuke these. So a people ma be  edgy. ..heavens are being shaken....We all need to strive to be more mature and clear in presenting our views. We all need to be growing, because time is at a premium.

I love humor but it belongs in off topics, I do not appreciate it very much when I perceive that it disrupts a serious topic.

This is not about any conflict George, we are to be of one mind and each of us just needs to express ourselves better.   

beloved

Hi George,

Like Beloved I was a little unsure of what you were trying to say here, I am going to attempt to further explain my good fruit/rotten fruit observation.

In reading your quote above I was wondering if this was directed at me sarcastically saying that I have a high opinion of myself as a "more mature" member, if it was then perhaps it could be counted as a piece of rotten fruit that would have ill effects on those who may be stirred to resentment toward me for my puffed up ego. Please understand that I am not saying this was your intention as I really do not believe it was.

On the other hand if I had responded to you after assuming I knew exactly what you meant with more sarcasm or even an impassioned, carnal rant against what (I myself assumed) you wrote against me. Had I written intemperate statements then it would have been me who produced the rotten fruit of divisiveness, strife and contention.

My point in starting this thread was exactly how Beloved perceived it, to attempt to illustrate how close by Satan is whenever those who seek a better understanding of God and His plan and purpose gather together. We all must use godly discernment as we patiently seek to understand each other, not jumping to conclusions or being overly defensive and especially not ascribing our own imaginations/temptations of evil upon others without first attempting to see what motivated them.

The subtitle about "Mature Members" was in Ray's article, not a self description of my own self, now in reality I am a more mature member than I was 3 1/2 years ago, or two years ago or even six months ago but I am comparing me to me not anyone else.

George I have always appreciated your contributions here and I knew there was more to your post than what my first impression was.

His Peace to you Brother,

Joe
