Dealing with Fundamental Baptists

How do you figure?

 

Think the biggest problems that I would have with Fundamentalists is there views regarding KJVO, and how many of them tend to take seperation to such an extent that have a hard time even fellowship with other true believers!

base this upon my personal experiences, yours might well be different!

 

Two things:

1. You are NOT the Apostle Paul.

2. Even Paul had to lay out from ministry for a while. Read Acts and notice even after his conversion Paul had to leave Israel to go away to Africa to spend time proving himself and growing so he could assume an apostolic ministry. Many of the first believers were wary of Paul and rightly so. In order to assume a ministry he had to take time to prove himself away from Israel.

 

I remember that I was good friends with local christian bookstore owner who had a young man had his IBF church reopen a new building... Invited me to attend the openning, just requested that I wear a suite and bring KJV only!

I did that, enjoyed the ceremony, especially part when guest of honor, police chief, dedicated the building by reading IN OT the prayer Solomon made over the temple...

best part was that he read it out of the NIV!

trust me, one time only, never was read there before or again!

 

I think you're comparing apples and oranges.

When Paul confronted Peter, was his intent division, or was it to correct a wrong? Paul's intent was not to cause division within the body; it was to ensure inclusion of the Gentiles.

What I can't understand about you is this: You apparently had a run-in or two with the folks at this school, who still remember it. Although you seem to have forgiven them for whatever trespass against you they did, you haven't actually indicated whether they've forgiven you for the trespass you caused them; nor have I clearly seen where you actually asked for their forgiveness on the matter. Instead, I see where you continually state they are/were in the wrong, and how you think you should go preach to them about their wrongs.

Then you have the audacity to wonder why they won't hire you.

Reverse the positions, and be honest with yourself: Would you hire you? If you can honestly answer yes, but they won't hire you; then you simply need to look elsewhere for employment. If you answer no, then work on fixing yourself before you ask them for employment again.

 

This may get you an answer or it may not. One seminary dean I know never answers his emails. He told my son to get in touch with him about a job and then when he did he never heard back. This was in spite of the fact that my son knew the man personally and had a good relationship with him from a former school.

Have you gone in person or just sent mail? Oftentimes a personal visit, with the personnel manager or whoever is in charge of hiring will show you are serious. Call for an appointment of course.

 

I'm sure that your plan will be a viable way to get installed on staff somewhere... :BangHead:

 

:laugh: Yeah, good luck with that approach.:laugh:
