Maybe we have a different definition of what it means to talk down to a person. Maybe I spend too much time online and am able to feel the emotion hiding behind the text. Not sure but this is what I saw, a person working on their PhD lash out at someone who was gently stating that they were homeless, and even cutely pointed out that Jesus Christ was homeless. Christ did not have a place to lay His head. Mocking the least of these is exactly like mocking God.

Did the fellow respond poorly? Well, I think the evidence is there, but from the thread, it is obvious he did not start it and that the group of thugs finished it.

That is exactly the opposite of what Christ teaches us to do. We are to raise up the downtrodden and topple the haughty. Seems that around here, the downtrodden get further stepped on by the haughty.

Yeah you just signed on today and are spewing out the same holier than thou rants that this other person is. Who are you his keeper? Or perhaps him???

What have I said that is false? Who started the flame war? Who ended it? What was the content of the flame war?

I read the thread, and I know I am not blind. Interestingly, you are defending someone claiming to be in ministry but yet attacked a hurting Christian on a message board.

My...oh my...just realized where I was at...this is a den of iniquity...

It's suspicious esp that he signed on right when others starting responding to the other antagonist. Timing gives it away.

I thought this was a music forum. Here's music that makes me cry for joy.

I believe she would rather use her music to reach as many people as she can and let God convict and change hearts. The fact is that many people heard her sing on Ellen's show that might not have otherwise. Some are called to witness and approach in different ways than others. You can't always go to someone thumping them over the head from the start with your Bible telling them what they're doing wrong. Sometimes it's a matter of softening one's heart enough to want to listen to what you have to say first. Sometime's it's necessary to open doors gently. I love her music. It's very inspiring.

I agree but when I looked in there seemed to be quarreling going on so I posted the songs as a reminder. We are called to love others, help others and live in peace. That's all.

It would be nice if everyone believed that.
We should be sharing the good news with non believers with words but also by showing them Jesus through our actions. When you walk in God's will and He calls you do His work, I know from experience that you better be listening.
At some point a person has to know what the Bible says sin is in order to turn from sinful ways. I have found people that think they do no wrong and have all the answers need to hear about sin in a brutally honest up front in their face kind of way.
There are those that are hurting, broken, that just need to hear that their is hope and healing in Christ Jesus and what they must do in order to allow Him to change their lives and fix the brokenness.
We all need to think about how we approach everyone, non believers,,,but even believers. I don't know how many people I know that quit going to church because of the Holier than thou, judgmental attitudes from others instead of a loving, helpful, and teaching approach.

I usually tell people I get aquainte with here the green check is my amen button. That means I agree 100% AMEN.

Well, I bet LukeAbers figured out he got banned.

Let's hope he figures out why, and may his Spiritual ears b open to HIS guidance, Amen.

Oh, he is here still.

O well then idk what you mean, plz explain?

He has another profile now.

He'll b easy to spot, unless he's come down off his alter. Let's all pray for him and us!

That's denying the Word of God before men.. She did know.. But she lied to the interviewer by stating ""I don't know""

Actually, half my family would rejoice to the Lord a black man or a criminal would go homeless every day. When they drive passed a drunkard they say stuff like "that homeless piece of junk reaped what he sowed! Praise the Lord! " it breaks my heart, but actually, I think if my family right here would want certain people homeless, then I suspect somewhere on this site there's some people like that too. The majority of people I met don't give a crap about the homeless, but there's that small part of people that pull all their strength into helping the homeless. The thing about everything in this world, you'll always be able to find someone to agree and someone to disagree with on everything.

That time will come to be perfected after this life with the Lord, but yes we are called to mainly focus on love. Greatest of all commandments we are to love. Often times, it may be a tough way to go, but I bring up things that will cause negativity but things that aren't always negative alone, but in the end even if someone's right or wrong, if people here just look at how they respond to someone they disagree with, then they can read over their message and realize how evil and unloving they were treating someone simply over a disagreement, therefore if they know the word of God, then they know they have failed his greatest commandment.

Being right and correct in what you do or believe, isn't more important than loving your enemy or anyone else. I wish we all cared about that more. I can always agree to disagree, but for someone to change their mind or hearts on something, we must be patient and leave that to the Lord. We are to share the truth and love, we aren't called to change people, that's the Lord's job.

That is not a common sentiment among the majority of Christians.

I don't personally know any Christians who would say that, and it certainly isn't biblical.
