I know this is from Saturday, but I've been out of town and I felt the need to reply to Reynolds comment here:
Are you saying that the church should sanction each act of evangelism we do? We were commissioned by Christ Himself to go into the world and preach The Gospel. Anti abortion ministry is very important. We as Christians should fight the murder of the unborn child. Why would a Church officially sanction the anti abortion ministry of an individual or group? It simply unnecessarily opens up the church to civil liability.

I don't think the church has to sanction every evangelistic activity we do, but I think the church should sanction the evangelist. After all, when we go out to do a work for the Lord, we don't just represent the Lord, but we also act as a proxy for our church.

Your other concerns are clear, though the above is my reasoning for the overall sanctioning of an evangelist. :smilewinkgrin:

PLEASE do not quote that poster. She is one judgmental character and there are reasons why I avoid her harassing posts. Continue to do this and I will ignore you. I have asked kindly. That poster has no idea who I am and I personally wish she would just LEAVE ME ALONE. Do you think I care what she thinks? Not one bit. So please just LEAVE ME ALONE. Its not rocket science. But with that poster and others leaving someone alone is rocket science.

This is the best example of your emotional immaturity. You don't like what one poster has to say to/about you, so you're trying to tell other posters what they can/cannot do in regards to her.

Seriously, dude; you've graduated college, or at least are beyond college age. Why are you acting like you're still on the elementary school playground?

Knowing what Evan has posted about the church he attends (non-Cal) and the church desires to attend (Calvinist) and the evangelistic technique he prefers (WOTM), I'd be curious to hear what advice Evan would give if someone asked him:

"What church do you attend?"
"Should I go there too?"

This really brings home the worth of having the church sanctioning evangelistic efforts and also exposes why Evan doesn't think he needs the church's blessing.

I did not know that returning from the Abyss of the List was possible.

Sometimes he recognizes that my posts are actually meant to help him, and he takes me off ignore.

However, as mentioned: I've caught him in at least two, possibly three integrity issues lately. I expect to be placed on ignore, and never to be taken off.

Don, you are one of those posters I consider to be both practical and tactful. To add you to the List is a shame.

*Must have AD Marine or Army

Oh, seriously?

Oh, wait; you want an LT that can be hardnosed. The only way you'll get that in the AF or Navy is with a prior enlisted....

...of which we have a couple on this board, I believe....
