I have come paifully aware that myattitude has gone suth gradually over the past few, honestly several weeks now. I have been responding passionately, and as always, regardless of some's opinions, to present what and why I believe whatI do...BUT, my postings have increasingly been speaking the truth without the love necesarry to be pleasing to God, whichbecomes a soundingbrass and a tinkling cymbal. In all honesty, there are those who have been adversarial from almost the first time ever posted on here, but that is in no way an excuse for retaliating. For quite a while, I let it run off like water of of a duck's back, but I have caved in and began to 'return fire',and instead of presenting truth, I had begun to use it to get back,which I am ashamed of. Some mistake my motives and mistake my passion for truth as being something other than what it is,or what it wasfrom the start. BUT, I had become to fit my detractors opinions lately in jopining in and , instead of presenting what and why, I began to want to get even with them, to put them in their place.I am reminded that it is the meek who will inherit the earth.I allowed my flesh to rule, and for that I ask all whom I have offended for forgiveness.
I am guilty of letting my flesh take over. If I have offended anyone please forgive me to..
Greg, you've never offended me in anyway.
By the way, Georgia boys, I have a project that will kick off soon in Atlanta. I will probably be there two days every week for several months. Maybe we can do the lunch or dinner thing while I am there.
Manuman; We all know that I have not had the patience of Job in answering your posts. It isn't due to what was said concering the scriptures, but an attitude, which I still see in your apology. Let me say, which I THINK I see.
Requardless of who is right, or wrong, it isn't worth arguing about. I except you aplogy, and offer an apology for my actions, statements, and any attitudes that were not becoming a believer. Snooky
I think you are all blessed with the Spirit in your own way. I remember how Jesus said that he who takes the lowest seat will be brought up to the head of the table.
(I probably didn't get that completely right, but you all know what I mean I think.)

Manuman...love ya man. I totally had you pegged wrong. From the first sentence I heard from you on the phone ..I felt humbled. I'm sure that would be the case with many on here. Our typed words are very limited. I forgive you brother..and ask all to forgive me as well for all of my inconsistancies .
I'm a little crude so I have never been much for apologies. I rarely give them and do not expect them. After all it is too late and after the fact. My wife says I should be nicer. If however you offended God talk to him. I frequently do that for my mistakes.
Snooky, probably what you may be perceiving as still attitude is simply my way of trying to convey the history behind all of this. I am not of the same attitude at all. I won't be changing my views, just the way I approach communicating and dealing with disgreements and differences!
My apologies...
