I told everybody very clearly that I speak bluntly and to the point. The welcome was wonderful and very encouraging. The problem comes this way. I make a post, on any subject and the result is a target on my back. People do not discuss, they attack. So I answer in my usual lovable way, and I get reported for being insulting. (Did you not read my profile?) I address a girl, female, as 'girl' and its degrading, disrespectful, insulting? What? Would it be insulting if I called my wife, 'Wife' (She loves that by the way) I tell someone they need to listen to the Word...How is that bad. Well the upshot of all this is this; I don't need the stress. I'm recovering from a nasty bug..Heart attack....so, I'm taking a sabbatical from this group. I need a rest after such a short time with this group. I'm amazed. We'll see you someday. Glorify God in all your doing. By the way...I met a man here named George. He was nice to talk to. I like him. I met an Amazing Horse too. Witty, smart, and spicy in his talk (not bad language lol) He is worth knowing. and a lovely lady named Willa oh yes! Marilyn (I hope I spelled her name right) Both these Ladies are real, not plastic. People could really learn from these women. Talk to you another time. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, we are in this world. You are going to see all kind of opinions on a Christian message board. Some may make a person angry because they do not agree. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbecoming for Christians. They will learn that you can disagree without being harsh. So unloving. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sower Posted September 21, 2017 Group: Worthy Ministers Followers: 14 Topic Count: 32 Topics Per Day: 0.01 Content Count: 5,571 Content Per Day: 1.00 Reputation: 6,292 Days Won: 1 Joined: 07/09/2009 Status: Online Share Posted September 21, 2017 I would say a heart attack is a really nasty bug, Denadii. Bummer. I know it's hard not to lose it when you just want someone to understand/see your point. I usually leave the keyboard in the middle of some reply's and go out to my shop, read a chapter and contemplate a little, go back to the keyboard, delete half of it, and try to improve my bedside manners. Not always successful though. It's only inevitable when you get a bunch of young and old bible students together, and most went to different bible teachers growing spiritually, so there has to be some differences of understanding. When I see that little bell at the top of the page, glowing red, I don't know if I hurt somebody's feelings or someone enjoyed my thoughts. But we're all on the same team, or should be, so I'll express my regrets for your leaving, and your heart issue, but pray you will bounce back soon and come out fighting. (Berean style) "Who received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.", and many of them believed. May God bless you, Denadii My prescription for stress............ Php_4:8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have taken a step back from this place as well. I have not been posting as much as I normally do. I am forever offending or upsetting someone on here. So I know where you are coming from. Most of the time when I log in here I say to myself, "I wonder who is mad at me today." Those of us who do not go with the flow of things get a good lashing. So you are not alone in this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
