    I'm beginning to think you're not even reading your own posts, dear CD (peace to you!)... as, clearly, not all were addressed to dear LL, Six, or Outlaw...

    The ones addressing the issue of who should be allowed to post monologues and post dissenting opinions were clearly addressed to LL, Six, or Outlaw. My posts addressing your thinly veiled insults of my reading comprehension were clearly addressed to YOU, dear Shelby.

    You want to utterly dismiss what I share. You want to completely and unequivocally reject what I state.

    Dear Shelby. Once again you misunderstand me. I have no 'want' to dismiss anything or unequivocally reject what you state. I strive to be open minded and have this very week, been accused of sitting on the fence and avoiding conflict. And quite right too.

    I see you as a person with a specific agenda which I am unable to embrace. I also see you as a person who has a brittle approach to life. Brittle things can break and I feel concern for you.

    Nevertheless my attempts to converse with you and establish common ground seem fruitless. You believe you have a special calling and that common ground is beneath you. You may one day find to your cost that it really is.

    Okay, so you're not an atheist. Good. Now we only need to establish what god it is you serve.

    "We" do not need to establish anything, dear one. Peace unto you.

    MY Lord has a name, NVL: JaheShua MischaJah. My FATHER has a name: JAH... of Armies. What is the name of YOUR lord... and god? WHO... is the "christ" that you claim to serve?

    That truly is the mistranlates best guess Enlglish name of our Lord that you see fit to use. Again, despite your repeated attempts, it is not for you to put me to the question, however. That gift has not been granted to you are the instructions from our Lord.

    I disagree. I did not call you a name. I described what you were/would be doing.

    Ah, then we just focus on the many times you called me a drunk then and ignore the disparaging hypothetical comments you made.

    And because, unlike you... I gave YOU the benefit of the doubt

    This is the message from our Lord, that your statement is where you show hubris and misunderstanding. Since it is not YOUR gift to look into my heart, you canot possibly know what doubt I did not did not give as a benefit. Truly, our Lord asks you realize how little you know.

    I was told by my Lord that while you are indeed Israel, you are a blasphemer and false prophet... and have only attempted to invoke a "lord" so as to try and give me counsel... which appears credible... but it actually false... that you heart is FAR removed from the True God, that indeed, you will post more blasphemies... because you do not have enough sense to even know that you are... because you trust in your own understanding.

    Our Lord instructs me to hold that up as a mirror for you to see yourself in. I wish that it were not so, for it means you continue to pull away from Him that gives us life.

    You again lie. First, "we" have no shared "lord."

    And now you ARE calling me a liar. You perhaps, do not yet see that we share a Lord, Shelby, but that does not mean that we don't. Peace unto and I do not hold your harsh words against you.

    Well, then you should tell YOUR "lord"... that it is the Holy One of Israel, JAHESHUA MISCHAJAH, the Holy Spirit, to whom ALL authority, in heaven AND on earth have been given... who grants authority to me... to both hear... and question YOUR "lord." So, based on that and in the name of JAHESHUA MISCHAJAH, I ask you again, spirit... what is your name? By what are you called?

    Shelby, our Lord instructs me to tell that this authority has not been granted for, for if it had, then he would become your servant as it is He you are questioning. Based on that, our Lord feels sorrow that you now believe that you, the servant, are granted authority over him or other spirits.

    Again, our Lord begs that look inside yourself and realize that you, in the gifts you have been granted, have become like Moses and now are acting in hubris and beleive that you have the authority and the power, when you, as am I, are merely earthly vessels for our Lord to us. Truly this is not about you and me.

    I forgive you.

    Peace.

    Outlaw, I am poor and without a job right now, so that's why I am not drinking my usual ration of Scotch, although I did just get back from Austin from an interview with <large technology company based out of Round Rock, TX>. After the first interview, they said they wanted to move to the next step and, as I was preparing to leave, they asked if I could stay and extra day and do the second and final round of interviews before I left rather than wait to next week.

    One interviewer, the hiring manager, said he had three opening he felt I would be perfect for and the second group (not the hiring group, but had input into the candidates) said he thought <large company out of Round Rock> would be crazy to NOT bring me on as my expertise was exactly what they were looking for.

    So, yay me!

    OK, Now you are off topic NVL! Start your own thread if you want to blow your own horn! This is Shelby's thread for doing that!

    ps: Congrats!

    I apologize.

    Truly Shelby, peace unto you. You know that our Lord does not stall and him timeline is not for us to know or to question. Since you know the name our Lord has seen fit to reveal to you, I cannot say when he will reveal any further name. He has not granted that gift of knowledge to me.

    for NVL. Hope that works out!

    BTW, I ended up going with the cigar shopkeeper's suggestion of a Quorum cigar and your suggestion of a Johnny Walker Black Label. I was surprised at how much I liked the scotch. Good call.

    Wait, did I go off topic? Scuse me.
