Entertainment, An Evangelical Heresy

[Vickilynn]

While it may seem to be a small thing to you "Words Have Meaning." You were saying that souls that are saved was "fruit."

I understand now you are saying they are the fruit of your labour but that was not simple to figure out based on your original wording. So if there was a misunderstanding the fault was your own.

Shalom OC,

That's not what I said, so don't twist my words. I never said they don't have meaning, I said you were making an issue out of something that was not an issue because you misunderstood how I was using the word "fruit", but you never asked for clarification, did you? Nope.

I don't see why you are making such a big deal about this, but if it helps you sleep at night by pointing fingers because you misunderstood me, and saying it was my fault, then have it your way. It matters not to me. You were the one with the issue. You didn't ask me to clarify, you jumped to the wrong conclusion because you misunderstood, but if you want to say it's my fault, go ahead. It's still amounts to swallowing camels and straining at gnats, but, if that's what you choose to do, have at it!

I never said that you thought or said that words didn't have meaning if I did say that about you please show me as I never twisted your words so where did that come from? I was not making a "Big" deal out of it but only clarifiying my position to you in innocence I might add. You have turned vicious towards me in your words for no reason. Are you a product of entertainment discipleship?

But seriously I can only go by the words I read if I do misunderstand it is because of the writer and you accuse me to jumping to conclusion when I didn't I just posted to point it out and you clarified your position for me and I stated my case is all. And it has nothing at all to do with pointing fingers because I misunderstood you. As it sounds like you are accussing me of judging you somehow cause I did misunderstand you ( I said it "sounds" like it) but that is not the case at all and there was no need to get so defensive.

Folks, we all had our say. I seriously doubt than any of us theological lightweights would have changed Tozer's mind on the issue. Since the bulk of his writings were done back in the 60's and before, you can see the Church has been struggling with this issue for some time.

Thanks.
