Just wondered . . .

Brother, I mean no harm, but there's some pride here in your works, and assuming everyone else isn't reading the Word. It's wonderful to remind folks to read and stay in the Word, and I fully agree. But it's prideful to believe you're the only one who does and the only one who encouraged people in the Word.

I'm not sure why you feel a need to correct me concerning things of the occult. You don't need to correct me concerning occultic practices, because I don't tolerate occultic practices in my life or my home.

This thread has gone waaaay off the OP. This thread is supposed to be about singing during prayer time.

I've learned all the new age religion, with tarot cards, and mix Buddhism in with it. Starting using Gregorian chants and repetition of song lyrics. I didn't know they call it Christiam mysticism now, it still new age to me, with UFO's in it also. When I hear crystals being used, the flag goes up and I start preaching against it.

oh i understand dear sister . but would you mind pointing out
where i said i was the ONLY one who does and the only one who encourages .
When you see where i said that feel free to rebuke me sharply .
And no worries , believe me i have mis assumed things too . Just as i am quite sure
you mis assumed me too . We all can assume wrong sister . SO no worries you are not being accused by me
just because you assumed i think like that . Fact is i am happy to let you know i THINK no such thing .

It's the manner in which you do it, brother. There is a way to encourage that doesn't put others below you. That's what I'm saying.

explain dear sister . all i did was remind you .
Try and do your best to explain how i am putting others below me .
By warning or by reminding.
Give me an example please dear sister .
Do you , or did you know , that even when folks remind ME
to read the bible , I am just so happy to hear they did . Its not like i say
HEY bud i arleady DO read it . Nope , i am just so happy to hear the reminder .
And happy would i be if even you or anyone else were to remind me and even daily
to read the bible . i mean if you reminded me every day it would be a joy to me sister .
I just love seeing the truth , Even if i know it . it brings joy to hear it and be reminded .
BUT i sure dont want be doing something in the wrong manner .
So i just want you to explain to me the error in the manner i am doing something .

Very well, brother. But going off on folks for using a rock in an innocent and non-occultic manner to present a Biblical message, accusing them of participating in occultic practices, or insinuating they are doing so ....and on the basis of that assumption, you warn them to get in the Word ....is off the mark.

I love that you remind folks to read the Word. It's of utmost importance when truth is tossed aside and the Word is twisted because people don't know it well enough. Just take note of the manner in which you go about it.

I think you just don't get it. Don't worry about it.

OH i know it might SEEM harmless , but is it really harmless and the key question is DO GOD APPROVE OF IT .

You have known me long enough. You already know the answer to that. The reason I'm not part of a church group and haven't veen for the majority of the last 15 years is because of the mixture. Enough said.

Again ....we really should get back to the OP. Why don't you start a thread on this topic?
