    wow ... okay i admit i don't get her greeting style either, but at least i *asked* her what her intention was in a different thread (before i saw this thread).

    i dont think that the OP has any call to attack her like that. i dont agree with a lot of what she says either, but so what? we're all entitled to our opinion. i for one intend to learn some things from her, things that i truly just don't get. then i'll make my own judgement. that's what grownups do, yes?

    OP needs the boot. no call for that kind of behaviour.

    How you doing Shelby?

    By the looks of things you must be doing something right to receive such bad responses whenever you post.

    Peace and strength to you

    EXYZ says: "(correction) It might be more considerate of others who do believe in God to refer to him as OUR Lord rather than YOUR Lord."

    A correction to you EXYZ, everyone does not except christ as their personal savior, so it is not considerate of others to make that assumption , and shelby does not know the belief of every individual poster

    And she's talkin' about the heavenly father, not your biological one, If she were to tell you about our father I'm sure you would know which she is refering to also.

    The JWs view "persecution" as proof that they're doing something right too.

    Aguest translation services:

    "May you have peace" = "F*xk you"

    "Dear One" = "A$$h*le"

    I recall the first time I read one of Shelby's posts, I was like WTF ???

    LOL !

    It took me awhile to understand her posts as opposed to just reading them and in doing that I learned to understand OTHER peoples posts instead of just reading them, in many ways Shelby's posting style allows me to not get insulted or take a post personal when someone says something in such a way that I SHOULD get offended.

    Shelby's posts in here way and it is HER way, that is how she posts, just like another post may decide to post with profanity and hard words and with colorful explesitives.

    As for her message, it is simple: Follow Christ NOT any person or group.

    I think that ALL of us would do will to heed that message more than we do.

    John 8:33, 1 John 3:10 plus so many other NT statements make you realize these men weren't really paying attention in the Synagogue.

    Jewish lesson 101- All humans are God's children.....

    John 8:33 - 33 They answered him, “We are descendants of Abraham, and have never been in bondage to any one. How is it that you say, ‘You will be made free’?”

    Not sure what you mean by this quote Designs...

    As for 1John 3:10, its beats to read the WHOLE thing in context:

    3 How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him. 2 Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when he appears, a we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is. 3 Everyone who has this hope in him purifies himself, just as he is pure.

    4 Everyone who sins breaks the law; in fact, sin is lawlessness. 5 But you know that he appeared so that he might take away our sins. And in him is no sin. 6 No one who lives in him keeps on sinning. No one who continues to sin has either seen him or known him.

    7 Dear children, do not let anyone lead you astray. He who does what is right is righteous, just as he is righteous. 8 He who does what is sinful is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil’s work. 9 No one who is born of God will continue to sin, because God’s seed remains in him; he cannot go on sinning, because he has been born of God. 10 This is how we know who the children of God are and who the children of the devil are: Anyone who does not do what is right is not a child of God; nor is anyone who does not love his brother.
