Guest Teditis Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 What is the difference in what we see on the news and gossip or slander? Is this gossip or slander? http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2015/06/05/bias-alert-ny-times-under-fire-for-scoop-on-rubio-traffic-citations/ I think that a lot of times it is both but people like to use the term "news(worthy)" as a cover for them to gossip... but gossip it still is.

Gossip can very well be slander ..it depends how the gossip is being gossipped,there's a very fine line.... either one can hurt somebody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slander is when you knowingly and publicly defame a person's character by falsely accusing them of some egregious wrong doing. It is particularly serious because it can cause them undue hardship like the loss of their job. Slander when done in newspapers or in some other public written media is called 'libel.' Both slander and libel are prosecutable offenses. Are you not the king of this though? A whole lot of threads you continually put down other ministers based on your limited revelation. Or, is their some form of reasonable excuse to judge some another persons servant who is able to make the stand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest shiloh357 Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 It's only slander if it isn't true. The people I mentioned are false prophets and they have been proven to be false prophets and they are false teachers, teaching people things that are not in Scripture. I am simply not a gullible sheep that buys into the heretical Charismatic claptrap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am simply not a gullible sheep that buys into the heretical Charismatic claptrap. Rom 14:4 Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand. Rom_14:13 Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge this rather, that no man put a stumblingblock or an occasion to fall in his brother's way. 1Co_4:3 But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged of you, or of man's judgment: yea, I judge not mine own self. Luk 6:37 Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven: Kenneth Copeland for example: OK, so despite the 4 million News letters that go out each month of folks that Like Kenneth, the 2.4 million viewers each day that watch BVOV and that is just a few numbers. Shiloh Knows more than all these confused people who like Kenneth Copeland and Justifies himself to get around violating scriptures. Shiloh is just so much smarter than the rest of us, that God just over looks all the putting down of ministers who have helped millions. I am just thankful I am not in your shoes, you must reap, what you sow. Thank you for the answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it wrong to spread good news, such as that the pastor's wife had a healthy baby girl, when we heard it from the church bulletin or from the pastor himself?
