Folks my heart has become to heavy due to the bickering, judgements passed on individuals and other faiths, critisisms and the such that go on here.
I love many of you, I respect many of you, but I feel that in order for me to maintain a strong testimony of what a Christian is like I need to move on from this forum as far as being a mod.
I will post on occasion, but it will only be with love and kindess, I leave those of you who feel it is good to critisize other faiths and each others beleifs to do so with all the zeal you can muster, as a matter of fact I am going to unlock and bump Swamps thread to where those who wish to can continue on your merry loving discussion degrading who ever and whatever you want.
I received a PM from one of the regulars here this weekend saying he was moving on, at first I wondered what he was talking about then I started reading the threads from this weekend and decided that I had had enough as obviously some of you have had enough of me.
May God bless all of you as you tear at each other.

Taz, I hate to see you go. But I will probably follow behind you. Alot of this bashing just isn't what I call Christian. Its sets a horrible example and says volumns of the posters. And its sad. Somebody can quote all the scripture they want but it sure doesn't mean they are full of humility. I bet Satan knows alot of scripture too.
Charlie, that is for the Almighty to decide not me. I read the Word of God
from the Bible. I don't post unless I have scripture to back it up. I don't express
thoughts or opinons of what I believe, like many do.
You know the saying: Put up or Shut up. Speak when the Bible speaks and be
silent when the Bible is silent.

Taz, if we were to have all these different religions embrace one another, we would have to leave the true christians out of the mix. No true christian is going to hold hands with a false doctrine. It is our responcibility to go against the devils lies whenever we encounter them. What kind of diciple would we be if we were to allow a liar a soapbox to dupe the unknowing into a false doctrine.
Say that we have one Jim Jones here giving his opinion. Should we embrace that one to win his soul . . .first, or expose him so that the hundreds that are reading his crap can be informed?
Taz, I hate that you are unsatisfied with things right now, . .I like you and you have been a good mod. But I have to say that the few that have been critisizing the lack of "love" on this board have been very often at the root of many of the controversies. I don't want this syrupy, lets embrace everything kind of love that these guys are pushing. This is a religious forum and debate is what it is basically all about. Mainstream christianity is of the opinion that biblically everything that is not of Jesus Christ is going to hell, and they are not being true to their faith if they hold hands with anything else. Eph 4:4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;
Eph 4:5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
Eph 4:6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
