When I was a teenager, a well respected sister worker from WI laboring in Italy was at our home for special meeting visits. She mentioned how Rome still has a Sunday morning meeting like it has since Paul's day! At the time, I loved that thought like many did/do in "truth". But there are about 1800 unaccounted years in this spiritual genealogy.

But there are about 1800 unaccounted years in this spiritual genealogy. Quite funny! The interesting thing is if you responded to the sister worker "Yes, there have been Christians in Rome right since Peter was the first bishop there up until now - a wonderful thing....", the conversation might change rather quickly! Oh yes, YOU would find it very "funny" I'm sure! My sister-in-law was in the work in Italy most of her life.

NO? Sandy Scott did not bring the biblical "Truth" to Italy. NO,he brought William Irvines Unbiblical exclusivist doctrine,that later was called "Truth". Someone will give you a quick rundown what the unbiblical means here.

Not sure what you mean - I think you may have misread my comment. Nope, understood it perfectly!

I always felt like I would have liked to have met Sandy. And I don't know why I feel that way.

dmmichgood, Please explain scripturally prayerfully why you said what you did,re NOT THE TRUTH but Irvinism unbiblical exclusivism? As many know me as one who suffered child sexual abuse at more than one supposed unbiblical demanded celibates hands.That made me study scripture closer and E.G Ephesians 4,verses 11-12,and 1 Corinthians 9,verses 5-6, Then to realise sin and mistakes are not related-STUDY THAT. Sorry for this if you were only having a christian conventions sarcastic joke. But I do love the fact researchers of the Governments Royal commission read all postings on all boards,so I will leave it to them to class it as a joke or attitude.Why Walker 1903 would want to have met him?unless it was to explain to him how to live closer to true biblical teachings than Irvine and Cooney taught?

I guess because he was married. And he wrote hymns and was a rough kind of guy sort of like an early pioneer. Sandy's wife Eva hasn't been dead very long.

From some of the incidents he told me about him, Sandy seemed to be much more compassionate that a lot of people.

I need to leave the computer soon so my son can go to bed.
I will get back to you tomorrow when I can make a more more thoughtful reply. Child sexual abuse is NEVER a joke, and I would NEVER make a joke about thaT.
I am so sorry that you suffered sexual abuse.
When I look back at my own childhood I realize how lucky I was.
Please accept my very sincere sympathy.

I wonder and wondered why the phrase was not "so-and-so brought the gospel to such-and-such again".

Sorry for this if you were only having a christian conventions sarcastic joke. But I do love the fact researchers of the Governments Royal commission read all postings on all boards,so I will leave it to them to class it as a joke or attitude I will now try to answer your post more thoroughly. Magpie, I was answering this statement by Ross Bowden:
"Quite funny! The interesting thing is if you responded to the sister worker "Yes, there have been Christians in Rome right since Peter was the first bishop there up until now - a wonderful thing....", the conversation might change rather quickly!"
I replied, "Oh yes, YOU would find it very "funny" I'm sure!" |
I replied that way because I knew he was no longer in the 2x2's & he criticizes them whenever he gets the chance.
I am not sure what you mean as to how I am to study the meaning of your statement: "Then to realise sin and mistakes are not related-STUDY THAT. "
Nor do I understand why "researchers of the Governments Royal commission" would be interested in any post I would make & have any need to classify it as "a joke or attitude."

Seems like phrases are passed down from generation to generation without much thought given to the meaning of the phrase. If it sounds good, it's gotta be good!

Why is it that most atheists are so quick to tell you what they DON'T BELIEVE IN and hesitant to tell you WHAT they believe in? I wonder if it might be because the only thing that defines an atheist is that they do not believe in a deity or deities.Not if you ask an atheist if they believe in god.You mean like helping the sick? Supporting their families? It would be interesting to know what theists have to offer their fellow man.And christians do not die and go through the same decay? Do you need to see a photo of a christian's body after they have been dead for awhile? Can you verify that christians have anything after death that is different from atheists? I am guessing it is your belief, based on faith, with neither logical nor material support. I don't think I will be forgotten. Police records last a long, long time! And I am sure my children, grandchildren, and others whose lives I have been involved with will be talking about me in their therapy sessions for a long, long time trying to resolve their issues! As an atheist, and certainly not one claiming to represent all atheists, I try to live and act in a manner that does the least amount of harm and the maximum amount of good. The guiding principle for me is the ethic of reciprocity. People need to take responsibility for the way they live their lives and their actions. Not because some sacred text has a set of written rules to follow, not because some paranormal being they believe in has dictated how they should live their lives on pain of eternal damnation but because they have made the honest judgement to make the moral choice.
