    You didn't read my post very well. FIVE men came at us, threatening & CUSSING. And we didn't threaten them-just stood there holding the bats on the ground like canes while, in a gently voice, told them, "we suggest you move on." They did, & we got into my truck & left.

    Scripture says turn the other cheek, but being cussed & threatened for teaching kids about Jesus exhausts my supply of cheex very swiftly.

    The ironic thing would have been that you could have been using a Greek NT to share with those people, and the KJVO would still have tried to get to you!

    Call it whatcha want; I don't care. Your opinions don't register with me anyhow.

    Jesus does not require us to be victims when it's preventable.

    In my BC days, if confronted by such a group over something, I'da likely started breaking legs at once. Fighting was a first resort. But JESUS made it a LAST resort for me!
