    I just thought that you may have visited a more ideal discussion board which we could examine and see how we stack up in comparison. Why don't you go scout for one, then send a report of what you found? It must be double spaced with careful attention paid to grammar, spelling, and punctuation. Dangling participles are especially abhorrent, so be careful.

    Jon you and Reynolds are both in error... And I would invite a jew just like me:eek:... Scared you there for minute didn't I... An inward one that is... Brother Glen:Biggrin

    Romans 2:28 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:

    2:29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.


    Oh and btw... Isn't our Savior a man of color?... Your turn!

    I think what you are talking about is now called ethnicity or nationality. Remember the educational system in the USA is the worst in the industrialized world.

    An excellent suggestion, sir.

    Upon reading your post, I concur.

    (Passive-aggressive behavior is fascinating.)

    Everyone throwing jokes around is disappointing to me.

    If everyone would uphold the golden rule "Treat others how you would like to be treated" we would not have racism, or any 'ism'.

    If we can just get out the Gospel and have those lost now get saved, much of the issues disappear!

    I doubt anyone on here cares one whit about your nation, tribe, people, or tongue—or race—you would be welcome in their church. I would add—with the Ford Model-T in reverse—“as long as you’re white,” but you probably wouldn’t think it funny. Seriously, do you think that this thread was started in a golden rule vein but has somehow deviated?

    Hatred spewing people like you are the reason sin abides in every nation. :/

    You're misreading the poster. Once again I am recommending that, as best we can, emotion needs to be left out of our conversations.

    Just because a Westerner shares the Gospel in a foreign land does not mean everything he has needs to be duplicated. All cultures can have valuable perspective when seen through the eyes of one delivered and transformed. And many cultures are being re-impacted with the Gospel. America could surely use more of that.

    Oh, and not all examples are ones to follow, some are warnings (1 Cor 10). So be careful with those "only"s.
