I showed a week ago posts from peter jens and this user. And how they use the same format. The same words. And the same strategy,
He forgets, you stick around long enough. You will be known.. And you can only hide so much.. The lord will expose you. As also your true nature is not changed, it will always come out.
He just refuses to admit it, because he knows the moment he does. BOOM, he is banned again.
Its like a legalist who is struggling with some sin, who hides it, because he knows that the moment his churhc finds out his sin...BOOM he is gone..
One problem. You can’t hide it from god.
So when you preach righteousness, and yet live in sin, Your true self is exposed.

AMEN...........My radar is highly tuned.....and they ALL give themselves away at some point....a phrase, mannerism, style, the way they spell certain words, saying........something.............and a GOOD TELL......the refusal to say YES OR NO if asked if they are a certain person......they all have believed in a works based self saving false gospel and that question gets them every time........or....they will answer without answering.......or misdirect without answering.........hilariously sad........

Delivering more than the the mail today Mr MMD 
.....very interesting.

Let your yes be yes and your no be no.

Everything in our faith is based on words. In fact our whole lives use words to describe
and deal with all our relationships and issues.
So lying and being accused of it is serious. Paul said liars will not inherit the Kingdom.
Integrity, truthfulness, honesty are our bedrock.

did you take an amateur course in psychological wrangling?
I quote:
'I don't know quite what your issue is'...
as a child I was a child. like most children
the rest is your dabbling in playing doctor.
you have touched no nerve, and nobody went boom.
you are not equipped to deal with me, don't have a clue, and that is usually how dishonest people view those who call them on their lies
no you are not my brother. I have 2 physical brothers and some brothers here, but no, you are not one to me at all
and Jesus is also my brother, He said so in His word.
I never called you evil but maybe your conscience is bothering you?

Hemustincrease/3rdAngel/LoveGodForever was not fooling us.
I don't know and don't get involved with banners coming back under different names
when someone did accuse me of that, quite some time ago, I just took it to a mod and the mod straightened that person out
I have had more than one account, but I left and have never been banned. no use in leaving really, if you are just going to come back
a rest probably will do you good though
so my point is, if dude here is as innocent as he claims, no prob...just get a mode tell everyone else they are wrong
shrugs and sips coffee

The problem I see with calling users out as former users under a different user name is that there is not enough proof for such assertion. There are people who speak in similar ways and different ways than each other. Some people can share very similar personalities and that can come out through speech, behavior, and writing. I often am one who likes to ask questions and this comes out as much of my own threads that I started are questions. I am sure there are people out there who can relate to me in this way and others.

Motives
Why are people wanting to know who was who in the past?
Is holding certain position a crime? Or is it a desire to oppose some because of a conviction they are evil?
I get told for saying I walk the way of Jesus I am wrong or working faith is heresy because fruit is not part of salvation.
Unfortunately for those who say this, Jesus condemned Israel for no fruit. Fruit matters to God, fruitless things are destroyed.
I will do a thread on this. Please understand, God loves you, but sinners are judged for what they do. We need fear, we need humbling, we need to know in Him we have life eternal.
If God judged today, confusion would reign. Let love rule your heart. God bless you.

Is Obedience to the Bible Essential to Salvation?
Must We Obey Jesus to Be Forgiven of Sin?

The gospelway website is operated by the church of Christ (Campbellism) and they pervert the gospel by teaching salvation by works with a heavy emphasis on water baptism (which explains why you were drawn to that article). Like other works-salvationists, Campbellites confuse descriptive passages of scripture with prescriptive passages of scripture and justification with ongoing sanctification. The end result is salvation through faith PLUS OBEDIENCE/WORKS.
Would you be interested in what the gospelway website has to say about speaking in tongues?
Tongue-Speaking and Miraculous Gifts of the Holy Spirit
What modern "tongue-speakers" utter is gibberish that no one present understands, themselves included. There is no evidence they speak any existing language, and studies have shown that they do not speak any known language. Of all the millions who claim to have this gift today, rarely does one find anyone who even claims to speak a human language they have not studied. The reason is obvious: if they made the claim, they could be easily tested by calling in someone who knows that language! If people claim they know someone who spoke a known language, it is always someone long ago or far away. It is impossible to get witnesses who can be checked out (John 8:17). It follows that, despite their claims, modern "tongue-speakers" do not have the same gift that was received by the apostles in Acts 2 and is described in other New Testament passages.
