Sister, can you not just receive a caution without getting hot under the collar? Don't you know there are many dangers, toils and snares on this journey? Just be careful. I can't make enough head or tail of your posts to be conclusive, but I seem to sometimes discern a potential danger, at least. What I do see is that the scriptures you are addressing seem to get buried, the plain intended meaning of them, seem to get lost in the shuffle and not even acknowledged or mentioned. I find that problematic.
Today I had to go to the eye doctor because our granddaughter who is five, accidentally kicked me in the eye on the trampoline. There was a lady setting across from me at the doctors office. My husband bought me a tee that has “blessed” written on it. I was wearing it today. The lady started a conversation and was talking about how hard life is and how every day you need to refuel. I agreed. Point is..I’m not hot under the collar. But what if the things i read in His word every day help refuel when I am low? What if they make sense to me. And inspire. And give Hope. And redirect my attention to Him. Maybe my mistake is sharing them and I should keep it to myself?
 

Waiting on him

Nothing in common with my beliefs.

Tell me one thing I have in common with the JW's on any doctrine. Lets here it.

I've debated them for decades at my doorstep and we share nothing in common
What was it that pulled you away from Calvinism? We used too listen to old John McAuther all the time, but this was years ago.
