Roy Martin:
Exactly George, but also, forgive and move on, learn, and study, and grow in the Truths of the Scriptures. Study to show ourselves approved by God. Forgive and move on. Let it go. See the good.

Peace
Roy

Roy Martin:

 I would like to hear more from you.

I have been reading on this subject and the one about animosity. I believe that Daddy God had planned our all our lives to picking out our parents, siblings or not, schools everything knowing what our choices would be in all situations... that He was molding us and preparing us. When we starting attending churches He knew who the leaders would be and they were blind. I believe through all of this that Daddy God used all of it for His glory. He knew when He call us we would respond to His voice.. His sheep and come out. George and Roy are right we have to have forgiveness in our heart. There is no point on dwelling on the past.. we have to move on. We love those people.. we hate the message of hell and tithing.. all the doctrines of men. I know that Jesus had harsh words to say to the pharisees, scribes, the others... I know also that Jesus loved them. He died for them too. He forgave them and loved them.. so must we.

I can not go back. I hope and pray to stay close to Daddy God that I would not become blind again. The past in our lives are to be like Ebenezer stones.. to see where Daddy, Father God has brought us from, to learn from it and to give Him all the glory.

We are the beast, the sinner but if we just focus on that all the time then we are not focusing on Daddy God. He is the only one that can change us through His spirit. I do see in the NT where in Romans we are called the sinner but later in the NT they are called saints. Not that we forget we are the beast but quickly repent ask forgiveness and move on to the next lesson the our wonderful Father has for us.

What has all this to do with church leaders? It was a necessary step in our growth in being made into the image of God. But knowing this wonderful truth of the Gospel and study it will do us no good if we don't walk it out in our lives bearing fruit of the spirit.

In His Love,
Bunni

Sometimes we really need to pay attention to the words we use. From all the counsel being given, it would appear that some are being highminded or haughty about the knowledge given to us By GOD.

I say it would appear, not it is happening; because if we can discern between the object (hate sinning) and subject (sinner), then we are in accord with Scripture.

Their is no place in Scripture that i have read, where GOD instructs us to love sinning.  ???

Pro 24: 23-25 (CLV)
23 These also are sayings of the wise:To be biased in judgment is never good.
24 He who says to the wicked man, You are righteous--The people shall revile him; the populace shall be indignant toward him."

25 Yet for those who reprove, it shall be pleasant, And on them shall come the blessing of good.

Rom 12: 6-10 (CLV)
6  God has also given each of us different gifts to use. If we can prophesy, we should do it according to the amount of faith we have.
7  If we can serve others, we should serve. If we can teach, we should teach.

8  If we can encourage others, we should encourage them. If we can give, we should be generous. If we are leaders, we should do our best. If we are good to others, we should do it cheerfully.

9  Be sincere in your love for others. Hate everything that is evil and hold tight to everything that is good.

10  Love each other as brothers and sisters and honor others more than you do yourself.
