I once had a sensitive spirit.....but it should grow in the Lord..to not be so sensitive.

How else can we witness for the Lord if we don’t grow.

@jackrosie ...
When we do not know what to say , the Holy Spirit will come forth ...
God has made us all different in personalities , some bold & some not so bold...
Some are timid and shy , some lack confidence , and we grow by reading the word of God , this is how I can lead my children and grandchildren , in my home where God has placed me...

I know all to well of being timid and shy sis....believe it or not......but through the Love of God....he has made me the person I am today.

Only his Love can do that...in other words his Love changes us as people..to be how he wants us to be.

I'm also going to address the bullying accusation that keeps getting tossed about.

When several in a certain group antagonize and go after an individual, post after post, I'm pretty certain that defines it.

This has happened to @jackrosie in this thread and in others. Of course it has happened to me as well, but when it happens to a person who has announced her frailty to an extent, that is even worse to treat a sister in Christ that way. I can handle the thing for myself, but she doesn't need this at all.

Another thing that defines bullying is when a person is called out publicly simply because she "liked" or agreed with a persons post several are assaulting.

Seriously? That happened? Of course it happened.

It is like telling the person, "Hey, I don't like that person, we are attacking him, how dare you agree with him! Be on our side!" and doesn't even care to assess if what the person said may be true. That very behavior defines it as well, and it is also know biblically as causing division and sowing discord among the brothers, something God detests.

All I know is He is watching the several who relentlessly go after our perhaps weaker sister growing in the faith.

“I don’t like bullying” says a bully. 😆

I don't know her, but I do know you. It almost hurts to see how easy it is for you to twist things the way you do. I would tell you to be careful because Calvin is watching. Only he is not.

You know what you do and everyone else knows what you do. Well maybe not your followers or your little gang of card carrying Calvinists

God is also watching over His word to perform it

He is not going to perform Calvinism.

You state you have been here about 2 years. That is a drop in the bucket for how long I have been around other 'Christians' and there are many flavors. Far too many prefer to be 'liked' or thought of as 'nice', then those who warn others about false doctrines for the sake of those who are not well grounded or have been saved only a short time are aware of.

Be careful you do not fall for it. You don't have to respond.

Exactly, some are not able to see beyond the fluffy sheep wool to see what lies beneath..... the doctrine of Calvinism is a patchwork of

isolated verses misinterpreted and to create a false schema!!

But is sounds nice.... I am special, God chose me!

Now isn't this something, she is weak in the faith and yet another was proclaimed a sinner by you and outside the faith.

Interesting, how you just showed up on the "Suicide" thread... an opportunity arose and you seized it,

I am still waiting for you to respond to all the scriptures I posted that refute your FIVE point schema.

That is so. Those who teach have far more to answer for (according to scripture) and Paul writes about men who fool (silly) women; those not grounded in the word. They go house to house and seduce (not sexually, seduce means more than that, I say this for those who might pounce on that word, not you) those with ITCHING ears. They will answer for it and not to us either

And those who cry peace peace when there is no peace are false prophets, no matter the size of the issue. There has never been peace when it comes to the gospel and there has never been love love love either.

I don't think some people understand the price paid by Jesus. For certain though, they need to start reading the things He said because it will be like a slap upside the head. Read about Jesus in Revelation too. It's not about peace and love.

If someone says they love the brethren, do they also embrace the deception ? That is not love and how easy it is to say those who warn about deception are hateful. Sure. You betcha. Some of us paid the price for believing it so you don't have to.

Let those who have ears hear

For God to sacrifice His only Son in a manner by which only a few select people are saved by no choice of their own, and everyone else is condemned through no choice of their own, would make God an utter failure. Thank God He is not a failure.

3 But I am afraid that just as Eve was deceived by the serpent’s cunning, your minds may somehow be led astray from your sincere and pure devotion to Christ. 4 For if someone comes to you and preaches a Jesus other than the Jesus we preached, or if you receive a different spirit from the Spirit you received, or a different gospel from the one you accepted, you put up with it easily enough.
II Corinthians 11

There is nothing new under the sun and since deception works so easily because of our fallen nature and people do NOT put on the armor but believe what anyone who calls themself a Christian will say, we have MASSIVE MASSIVE deception in the church today

Calvinism has seen a resurgence in the past decade ... they are very good at recruiting and infiltrating churches.
