We should all be willing to be corrected .
Thus if a man speaks error , bring correction to that man .
But let us always remember man does not live by emotion but rather by every word of GOD .
If we do see error we must correct error . Yes indeed my friend .
And as i have said before so say i now again , IF folks see error in me
dont let me remain in error and hug me and let me believe all is well .
Correct me . But do so with scripture . For as you well know
many may THINK they see error in another , and its good they do try and correct it ,
But if what they thought was error is found to align with scripture , Then it aint error at all .
Jim goes after me like a starved bull dog would on a fresh pork chop .
YET i would love for him to read ALL things , not just specified certain verses taken out of text , BUT ALL THINGS
that CHRIST taught and later the apostels taught .
I aint even a tenth as serious against error as was paul . I mean that man had folks delivered over
That man seriously warned the church repent or else . And while pauls desire was rather
he would find them doing good , SO ITS WHY he warned them in the letter to repent or else ,
GO peek at what paul said he was gonna do if they repented not .
or see what pual also told timothy and titus too . SEE , IT IS LOVE TO CORRECT , TO REBUKE , to expose error
and wolves . But to jim i be the monster because i do so . AND YET i dont even do it on the level that paul did .
Guess paul would surely have been seen as a monster . I mean if jim said i was following my father the devil ,
AND HE DID SAY THAT , what on earth would he have said to paul . or even worse what would he have called CHRIST
You wrote "We should all be willing to be corrected .Thus if a man speaks error , bring correction to that man ." Yet
YOU do not accept correction!!! You go on and on and on and on ... and on with your self-righteous condemnation of others, including other Christians, yet you will not heed correction of your chronic disobeyment of God's command.
You wrote this: IF folks see error in me don't let me remain in error and hug me and let me believe all is well .
Correct me." Yet you do
not accept correction!!!
And saying that "Jim goes after me like a starved bull dog would on a fresh pork chop" is both funny and absurd,
You, of all people, don't like to be corrected, yet
that is all that you do! Never do you have a kind or loving word for your brothers and sisters in Christ. You villify, judge, and condemn those who are the sheep of Jesus' flock.
And now you're comparing yourself to the great apostle Paul?
LOL!!! Paul clearly loved those to whom he devoted his life, both in person and in his writings. You have clearly forgotten what he wrote to the church that he founded in Corinth: "If I speak in the tongues of humans and of angels
but do not have love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. And if I have prophetic powers and understand all mysteries and all knowledge and if I have all faith so as to remove mountains
but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give away all my possessions and if I hand over my body so that I may boast
but do not have love, I gain nothing.
Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable; it keeps no record of wrongs; it does not rejoice in wrongdoing but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
[Read that again and again, "amigo"]
Love never ends. But as for prophecies, they will come to an end; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will come to an end. For we know only in part, and we prophesy only in part, but when the complete comes, the partial will come to an end. 11 When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child.
When I became an adult, I put an end to childish ways. For now we see only a reflection, as in a mirror, but then we will see face to face. Now I know only in part; then I will know fully, even as I have been fully known. And now faith, hope, and love remain, these three,
and the greatest of these is love."

but speaking the truth in love, we must grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ,
