Why do you work so hard to discredit people? What do you get out of it? Are you unhappily married? Is this your hobby? One hundred and thirty something ratings, are you trying to become some type of makeshift hero to those who seek spiritual guidance? In all your Bible quoting have you not seen, have you not read the words of Paul (Acts 5:38) refrain from these men, and let them alone: for if this counsel or this work be of men, it will come to nought: (5:39) but if it be of God, ye cannot over throw it, lest haply ye be found even to fight against God. You heave Scriptures recklessly trying to hit any and, apparently, all targets, seeking to discredit them. In my opinion, you succeeded only in showing yourself carnal minded and without true understanding. (Isaiah 6:9) Hear ye indeed, but (you) understand not, and see ye indeed, but (you) perceive not. (Luke 9:55b) Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of (Romans 8:7) the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. (Isaiah 28:9) Whom shall He teach knowledge? And whom shall He make to understand doctrine? Those, like you, who are prone to immature tirades posed as discernment or revelations? Hardly, but (Isaiah 28:9 continued) them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breast or do not suck, Bible words and phrases without an in-depth understanding of them. (28:10) For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, here a little, and there a little: Divine combinations that the scornful man (Isaiah 28:13) might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken. (Luke 6:39) Can the blind (spiritual vision impaired) lead ? (I Samuel 17:26) Who is this uncircumcised (in heart) Philistine (?) (Job 38:2) Who is this that darkeneth counsel by words without knowledge? Will (Job 13:8) ye contend for God? (38:3) Gird up now thy loins like a man (I Timothy 4:16) Take heed to thyself, (4:13) give attendance to reading, (4:15) Meditate, and study (2 Timothy 2:15) to shew thyself approved unto (by) God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the Word of truth. (1 Timothy 3:6) Not a novice. (3:5) For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the people who seek God (you should have read the rest of the scripture you quoted), or help them to (4:3) know the truth. (Matthew 7:2) For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete (from the Greek - ascertain a fixed standard or rule to), it shall be measured to you again. There is malice in your heart which has, obviously, made its way up into your eye, (Matthew 7:5) first cast out the beam out of thine own eye, and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out any alleged motes. PassTheLoot, you clearly know your way around a concordance but I do not think (and I could be wronge) you would know understanding of precepts if it walked up to you and asked you for change. (Proverbs 4:7) Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom (for he that wins souls is wise 11:30): and with all thy getting GET UNDERSTANDING.

deerheadtls It's EASY to give bad rating to bad Evangelist. Look over this list on R.I.A 80% are money hungry thief's, 10% crack pot's and 10% don't live up to any type of an Godly life. I didn't BASH Clarence E. McClendon. All I did was post one verse and if he can't or won't live up to it now it's up to you to sound an alarm and warn other's. Covering up sin and over looking it is wrong. I gave Evangelist some 3 and 4 and even a 5 star rating but those that got that rating EARNED IT. I post one verse and you say I have malice in my heart ?
