Paradise Cafe Discussions - A Place For Bible Research And Christian Encouragement

Dear folks,

Today it was brought to my notice that I am guilty of rudeness on the board.

I completely accept the charges and try and not repeat the same follies again:giverose:

The following were my outburst if there are some more and I am forgetting I request everyone to ignore please.

What we who are talking about the subject of the divinity of Christ cannot understand is why should you or sw or d2 if you can't stand trinity or such talk visit this thread at all.

There are so many subjects the three of you could devote your energies

Why must you ruin other people's discussion on things that are scriptural.

No one is dragging you in the controversy section now is it?

Think with a cool head, nobody has assigned you as spiritual policemen or women on this board

gogh I always took you for a level-headed one here on the board.

Can you too not see who the belligerant ones are on this board gogh wrote:

I keep hoping/anticipating consideration be show those that request relief from topics that have proven to be,for the most part...wearisome.
unquote

The subject of trinity is not an apostacy it has been with the church eversince it began.

People on board openly condemn the holy apostles their words are spoken of as spurious.


Certain women on the board are so emancipated and full of hot air that at time they forget what is coming out of their keyboards.
And yet the board members just make feeble protests thats all no one tells them to reign in their tongues

Can you please explain this disrepency?

If any restrictive policy was made then maybe I too will not remain here for what is the good of a bible discussion board if we cannot discuss the Bible?

Some of the remarks made by females on the board are just not acceptable!

If you choose to ignore or even encourage such disrpespect for the Bible you wll be answerable to God for it or wont you?

Therefore it is only proper that I ask brother Gogh to please forgive my rudeness.

I also clarify my the misunderstanding I created about certain ladies on the board my remarks were rude and unnecessarry.


Also I am not judging anybody it is Christ who is the judge of all both living and the dead

I suppose thats all I remember if there are other people hurt by my reckless use of tongue (keyboard) I ask you to show Christian behavior and forgive and forget.

Your brother in Christ

Farhat Zubair

Dear brother Farhat Zubair.

Your thoughtful comments/expressions are very much appreciated. You set a very fine example of demonstrating love. Our Master is teaching us well. If only I could recognize the times I also cause harm in the things I say (and have said). Thank you so much Farhat Zubair for setting such a fine example.

A time to repeat sister LLee's favourite..."Onward and upward all..."

Christian love and appreciation,

gogh

No one can/ could stay upset with you for long Farhat--you are such a sweet man Plus everyone has had their 'heat of the moment' moment--or two even...with much love to you--your friend wolfie :friends:

Thank you so much Farhat, you prove that we all make mistakes but your humility makes you loveable.

We all get heated and I often have to recheck what I have written.

Much love to you,

vicky

((((((((((((((:heartbeat:Farhat:heartbeat:))))))))))))))

You are a beloved brother, humble and righteous, forgiven as you forgive. :hug::cheekkiss::hug::friends:

:airkiss:

Hi fzu!
I always reread my post 2 or 3 times before posting. That is after i spell check. Often after posting, I quickly go back and edit!!
It's a wonderful thing. :friends: Ok lets :eat:

Yes, Farhat, nice of you to apologise!:) Not always easy, but always the Christian and loving thing to do.:friends::drinking:
Agape,
Grateful :giverose:

Dear Farhat,

This is my second post, the one I wrote yesterday disappeared before I posted. You know how funny computers can be.:help: Not that I believe in signs (I try to avoid anything as a sign, a WTBTS superstition that still running high on the richter scale, can't conquer everything overnight)but, since I was thinking and meditating about posting, I decided to let it rest another day.

When Vicky posted to go through and edit, the realization that maybe you were feeling defensive for Bethelboy came to mind. The last thread that brought on this thread, you seemed pretty friendly on the forum with him. Bethelboy put himself in the "hotseat" on this thread. I really respect him for his fortitude.:siskiss:

Then quite a few regulars posted, even though they didn't have to come and debate this thread , again. I think it was pretty terrific that they all have the same Christian respect for Bethelboy. :cheer: I think it was a respect issue that they came post, not so much over debating the issue, IMO.

Now, as for me...I want to work through the trinity belief in simple terms. Like most of you, I LIKE to read the bible and embarrass my kids when its my book of choice for the beach or pool. My personal spiritual growth and my personal personality likes to read other peoples heart and personality.:heartbeat: So, I have a biblical knowledge foundation. I do not have knowledge or understanding over different faiths. Like, most logical people, I want to sort through differences and similarities.

The disputes are usually a result of our "zeal" which is healthy IMO, because we get the opportunity to bear witness to our passion for the love of God and Christ's sacrifice and bear witness by the spirit that we are children of God. Yes, we are warned, not to become "wrathful" and we have to keep our tempers in check during our disagreements.:redface: I am guilty of losing mine.

As for our strong personalities, I think its a joy to have so many different people being brave enough to share themselves in a public forum. Without our personalities, the forum would be rather starchy, wouldn't it? I have found a difficulty learning humor from seriousness with foreigners, different age differences, and male versus female humor. So, our perception of a "funny" vary between each of us. I think its a leap of faith to decide that we are trying to "quip" more than "snip", and a leap that I am willing to make. Besides, if we are seriously offended, shouldn't we ask before getting mad?

As for me, personally, I tried to find a picture of Helga from Hagar the Horrible comic strip to post for you of me. I couldn't find a clip art I liked. Yes, I realize that I can be rather scrappy and intimidating. I'm the same in real life and have four strong headed warriors that want to battle to the finish. Maybe our family should learn the art of fencing, then we can be more elegant with our joists! I'm a little more "redneck" stock. Which may wear some of you intellects down with me taking a while to understand things, but a "redneck" is usually quick to find a funny or share their thoughts.

Remember the "friends" remark? You are in my circle of friends.:D I already realize that we have some differences. I am in for working things out:friends: I feel I have things to learn from you and everyone else. We are gathered here together because of our love for Christ.Thank you for your apology and please, in return except mine.:giverose:. I'm so appreciative having our loving group to visit:grouphug:.

With Sisterly Love, Debbie

Dear Farhat,
The pm you sent me about my mother was truly amazing.
I won't post it unless you say I can, but it shows that you are a very loving human.

Thank you,

vicky

Hello Farhat,

I wondered for a number of days over your post and was quite puzzled:blush: as it was not like you

and now

back to your normal self - a loving bloke.


:hug: Tessa

Dear Gogh, Wolfie, Man hu, Acts, Willa, e-magine, grateful, onthedge, Tessa,

So many dear friends:grouphug:

I am overwhelmed by your big heartedness to forgive a guy who constantly keeps on shooting his foot over and over again:D

Thank you Man hu! Yes you can post my pm to you.

Its a basic human need to be loved and cherished and I am so fortunate to have you all as friend.

I hope the generosity you all have extended to me I may learn some humility from it and also become larger in my heart to forgive others and also learn to give, something so hard for me to do especially love:(

God Bless the board!

Thank you Farhat, and may God bless you!:)
Agape,
Grateful :giverose:

Dear Farhat,

It's why I stay on every learning curve until I've gone full circle :thumbup:. No offense ever given or taken. If I am guilty may I too be forgiven, for I too at times speak in anger. But all such offense only proves we're sinful and all the more so need to forgive as our Father forgives and lets the sun rise and the rain fall on even our enemies. "Continue becoming merciful, just as your Father is merciful" said our Lord. (Luke 6:36)

Much affection,

sw
