Let's not talk like that. God will meet us where we're at, and one thing that has never gone over well on this site is members saying other members are not Christian. Some would say your not a real Christian either. I've been told I'm not a real Christian. Hopefully you get my point.
Bottom line, were not in that business here. So please apologise and then refrain from further posts of that type.

Thank you.

Yeah but in all fairness he was talking like a punk. It made me wonder. So even though questioning ones faith is politically incorrect, a measure of decency and politeness should be granted to the lady and when he denied her that...it should have been brought to the table too. :wink

You challenge my post but you don't say anything about how rude Quantrill is. He has insulted me and many people on this board. Only God knows if he's a Christian or not. But I do know that he is really hurt my feelings and that usually means I lash out in anger out of habit. I can't ignore what he is doing. So I guess you just have to keep deleting my posts and let him say what's on his mind even though it is very hurtful. I'm talking about equal treatment here.

People like Quantrill have been bullying me since the first grade. I now stand up for myself. But he has won this game he's playing by dividing you and me. So let him say whatever he wants. It really doesn't matter in the long run. As long as God loves me. He's the only one who understands what I've been through and why I'm so angry at this BULLY.

I am reminded of my mother who used to say don't worry about those bullies. But I was just a child and she should have protected me. And you should protect us from him.

Bottom line.

Edward, if you have an issue, please create a new thread in the Talk With The Staff forum and we can discuss further.
Thank you.

To me personally, nothing is more heartbreaking that to have people you love be angry with you and not know why. For some reason questioning Quantrill's faith has upset Humble Soul and Steve Bolts a great deal. I really feel there is a deeper issue going on with both of them and they don't want to talk about it. So I don't really know what to do right now except to move on. I have learned my lesson. I will never challenge someone's faith on this board.

When things like this happen I know God is trying to tell me something about myself. Every time I think I have healed from my past, I find out that there is more work to do. Right now I need to work on my need to fit it. I have never fit it. But I keep trying and that is ridiculous. I can't tell you how many people get upset with me. The important thing is my relationship with God. What he thinks is the most important thing. But I get lonely some times because I am only human.

I know in my heart I need to move on to a more progressive board and yet I bonded with this board and don't want to go. I can't explain why. I thought if I tried really hard the lions would lie down with the lambs. Also, I do not want to break ties with the Recovery Forum. So I am praying about what to do next. More shall be revealed.

Since this thread is about anger, I want to say that we must not dwell on our anger. After it comes up we must temper it quickly and lay it to rest. Everybody take care . . .

 

[humble soul]

Thread closure is one option........a suggestion like this will trigger 50 more posts...you watch...

Don't let the sun set on your anger.
It's a new day, a fresh start
The sun is shining here this morning.
Hope everyone has a good day

Here comes the sun
Dootin do do

Good morning . . . I prayed about this thread last night. God told me to call my friend in Kenya--Pastor John. John said he moved on from this forum because he was having the same struggle I was having expressing myself freely. He said, "God sent me to the site to meet you and then I left." As you know, Pastor John and I have started a non-profit corporation called, "New Beginnings, Incorporated." We will raising funds together to feed 79 orphans, one of whom I adopted. Our motto is: A Brighter Tomorrow brings a New Beginning. (Brighter Tomorrow is my other company counseling addicts.)

When I run into a stumbling block, I know God wants me to move on. So I am doing that. I left my email on the Christian Recovery forum for people in recovery who need help. I would appreciate it if everyone on this board will watch out for people posting on that forum and offer them some hope.

I really wanted to fit it, but deep down I am a progressive and need to be around others like myself. Everyone: Remember to love one another as he loves us. "Go in his name and because you believe, others will know that I live."

 

[humble soul]

The reality is that we learn to survive without others. Noone is indispensible. Even famous people get forgotten. We all move on. Life goes On.

This is one of the most tolerant Christian forums I've been on. I am ashamed to say I was on a Catholic forum which was very narrow minded and had little patience with people who didn't have the same regard for the Catholic Church as they did.
Ecumenism. It's a dirty word for some. Dilutions of truth perhaps. I like the idea myself. What unites us is more important than what separates us.

I'm still not angry. I'm doing well.

 

[humble soul]

I'm still not angry. I'm doing well.

Because you weren't angry today?
Sounds like you are using this thread to monitor your own anger management. Like an anger Journal.

Here is a good passage about anger and so forth:

Ephesians 4: 24-30

24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.

25 Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.

26 Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:

27 Neither give place to the devil.

28 Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.

29 Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.

30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.

31 Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice:

32 And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.../

It sure spells it out. Proverbs has a whole chapter on it too, I was reading it the other day. I almost posted it but someone came to the door.
