How Ironic, Christians are Pathetic - Read

Hi all,

Pathetic is a bit strong, maybe... ?

Not sure, anyway, with the arguing Thankful, I agree it is good to discuss, share differences, "debate" among ourselves. But it does harm when the unbelievers are watching.
I go to a chat Chat, several rooms, I love Bible and talking Bible, but the bible room runs me out.
They may not call names or attack, but they don't show the love, they want to "win" and have the other(s) agree with them. To me, it becomes arguing after you have said something once, and the person doesn't receive it, and then you keep on trying to hammer in it.
I am tempted to do this, I have learned it's best just to pray after I have presented my case clearly.

And if anyone wants to pray, the brethren incarcerated need your prayers.

God bless you,
mercy

 

I don't know of any place, nor do I have any amount of money that I could pay to be part of such an interesting environment of discussion.

I strive not to underrate or even overrate any thing here.

Where else can I go to meet folks who are zealous, consumed or excited with their faith like the regulars here? Right or wrong in how I think, I don't feel "bullied" here. I have to watch what I say, but at least I can say it. I've learned that if I can say something well, I can stay out of trouble. I am as careful about what I say here as I am when I am in person. But I can say things here that I cannot say anywhere else and that is one thing I need. Many times, what I say encourages myself.

I gain such a release here that when I am face to face in more delicate situations, I am much less likely to stumble in my conversation. I've worked out so many things here with you all, that it makes me better in person. For the most part it has not been easy.

When I set my mind to find what is good, I usually find it. I push aside the other stuff.

I am grateful and I salute you all.

Dave.

 

What a nice post, David Mark. I especially like your statement that I have quoted. This is something we should do at all times. Look for the good! We can learn from each other even when we disagree.
