So here comes the train and the little boy on the track is not paying
attention.
Do you stand by and wait for your god to do something?


Sorry Mike, I do not see this as the same thing. And it is possible
that God put me there at that time to save the little boy.

So you would do nothing until somebody told you to, how obedient.
That and your waiting for god to move you pretty much sums it up.

The train and the train wreck that is John are but different degrees of what
may be a serious problem.
You are not going to get involved until you feel like it.

You quote scripture, telling people how to behave and then claim that your
god may move *You* to do something.
How do you know that none of the other people you are talking to are not
doing what they feel is your god's work?

What " I CLAIM"?
He IS doing just what several of us have SAID.
Because you 'have no intention' of checking into yourself, don't go
about telling anyone else 'they are not helping'. He IS a proven liar,
an instigator, and as long as he continues to be so, I WILL expose
him.
I strongly suggest you kill file me if my posts upset you every few
months or so that you decide to appear.

And you all have proven this is John beyond a shadow of a doubt how?

would it matter?

I have again kill filed Larry. It is useless to argue with him when
his mind is so made up to defend liar-johnnie, who has been proven the
extreme liar he is.

He need only se the posts to determine his lies for himself.

Let's all remember that johnnie does not like to be called
johnnie.


Why not? Johnnie is johnnie's name! I wonder if johnnie would care
to
confirm that? !! :+D

As for being his name, yes and no. If it was put on the birth
certificate as John, then his name is John, and Johnnie would be a
nick name.(and some people do not like to be called by their
nickname)
But if it was put on as Johnnie then Johnnie would be his name,
and
John the nickname. Just thought I would point that out.
Still think it is the Christian thing to do to call someone by the
given name, unless the person doesn't mind being called by his or
her
nickname.

Hi Larry, I would just like to point out that "the "c" word" is not
on
my
birth certificate.


Yes I know it is not. (if I am the "c" word is what I think you are
talking about) But like I just mentioned to Elaine, are we honoring
God or are we honoring Satan?
I am not saying John is right by his name calling and I think he
knows
this. But if we do the same, does that make us anymore right?

Just think and pray about it, and ask God to guide you in this
matter.
Larry

Sorry Larry but I don't think there is anything wrong with calling
John
Johnnie. John has reaped what he has sown and nothing more.


In a way there is nothing wrong with that. Unless in my opinion it
offends him, then there is.

There is no end to the things that "offend" John Larry. In reality he
really
doesn't care, all that is important is how much attention he can
generate
for himself. I don't understand how you can witness him in action all
these
years and still be clueless as to what makes him tick.


Yes I know many things offend John Scout, just as there are probably
many things that offend all of us. Whether I understand what makes
John tick or not, doesn't matter does it? It should be how as
Christians do we treat him. Do we pass him by (call him names, argue
with him, etc.) or do we act like the good Samaritan and show him
love?

Enabling him is not showing him love Larry.


Let me give you an example. One of my bosses at work, his name is
John. And we are on a first name basis there. I called him Johnny
once, and he told me his name is John, not Johnny. I said I was sorry,
and will try my best to remember that.

Well you ought to respect your bosses choice of name and I trust he
calls
you by the name that you prefer, you know, having mutual respect for one
another. You may not be so inclined to respect his choice of name if he
refered to you as widdle warry warthead.

Yes he calls me by my name. Oh we pick on each other once in a while,
but we do respect each other.

Even though you say John has reaped what he has sown, shouldn't we as
Christians try out best to do our best to show the love of Christ by
our actions?

Jesus had no problem calling the vipers Vipers Larry.

This is true, but I feel Jesus did it with and out of love Scout, do
we?

Jesus did not love the vipers Larry.


And you know this how? Did Jesus tell you he didn't love them?

He also called them sons of hell Larry.

Well in my opinion, not a good Christian attitude to have. Especially

"You have heard that it was said, 'Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth'.

Matthew 5: 38-40 NIV

Back in Jesus' day they didn't have bidet's and toilet tissue Larry. They
did what they had to do and used their left hand to clean themselves.
(they
still do this in some parts of the Middle East today). The left hand was
considered unclean. Anyway when someone wanted to strike another they
would
never use their right hand because the person they wanted to strike was
considered inferior and unclean to them and they would make themselves
unclean if they touched such a person with their right hand. The right
cheek
was struck with the left hand. Offering the other cheek was a ploy to get
them to use their right hand thereby contaminating themselves by touching
an
unclean person. This of course made a big fool out of the
aggressor........

Now, you were saying?



I will have to take you at your word for this.

No you don't have to take my word for this, look it up.

You are obsessed with everything Elaine says but somewhat blinded to what is
said to her. Most of Elaine's posts concerning John are in response to his
disgusting behavior. You chose to walk on eggshells around John, she does
not. Paul said in 1 Timothy 5:20 "Those who sin are to be rebuked publicly,
so that the others may take warning." Verse 21 says "I charge you, in the
sight of God and Christ Jesus and the elect angels, to keep these
instructions without partiality, and to do nothing out of favoritism."

When are you going to be impartial Larry? What would you have said if Elaine
called Jesus a bastard and claimed his mother was a whore Larry? I would
have written the same exact thing in response, how about you Larry, would
you have tried to sweep it under the rug if Elaine was the one who had
written such blasphemy?

You might as well back off and ride into the sunset for another few
months, Larry.
I WILL NOT enable liar johnnie.
I WILL NOT pass by his sexual filth, gutter mouth, false witness,
false prophesying, lies, and threats.
That's because I AM A CHRISTIAN, and not a coward or pacifier.

Well then understand I will challenge you when I feel moved by God to
do so.

Funny how God doesn't seem to move you to challenge John W just as often.

Yes I guess I am in a way. She is supposed to be the one that doesn't
have a mental problem. And John knows how I feel about certain things,
I do not need to beat him over the head with it as some seem to do.

If Elaine had said that, I would have said the same thing to her that
I did John.

Rebuke yes, but does it say to nag, gossip, ridicule also?

Well in my opinion, not a good Christian attitude to have. Especially
if a non Christian is lurking in here, just reading. We are acting no
different than a non Christian does with name calling and fighting.

"You have heard that it was said, 'Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth'.
But I tell you Do not resist and evil person. If someone strikes you
on the right cheek, turn to him the other also.
Matthew 5: 38-40 NIV

Back in Jesus' day they didn't have bidet's and toilet tissue Larry.
They
did what they had to do and used their left hand to clean themselves.
(they
still do this in some parts of the Middle East today). The left hand was
considered unclean. Anyway when someone wanted to strike another they
would
never use their right hand because the person they wanted to strike was
considered inferior and unclean to them and they would make themselves
unclean if they touched such a person with their right hand. The right
cheek
was struck with the left hand. Offering the other cheek was a ploy to
get
them to use their right hand thereby contaminating themselves by
touching
an
unclean person. This of course made a big fool out of the
aggressor........

Now, you were saying?



I will have to take you at your word for this.

No you don't have to take my word for this, look it up.

But still does not
condone Elaine's attitude in my opinion. Or are you saying it is okay
and eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth. Even Paul said do not
return evil with evil.

You are obsessed with everything Elaine says but somewhat blinded to what
is
said to her. Most of Elaine's posts concerning John are in response to his
disgusting behavior. You chose to walk on eggshells around John, she does
not. Paul said in 1 Timothy 5:20 "Those who sin are to be rebuked
publicly,
so that the others may take warning." Verse 21 says "I charge you, in the
sight of God and Christ Jesus and the elect angels, to keep these
instructions without partiality, and to do nothing out of favoritism."

When are you going to be impartial Larry? What would you have said if
Elaine
called Jesus a bastard and claimed his mother was a whore Larry? I would
have written the same exact thing in response, how about you Larry, would
you have tried to sweep it under the rug if Elaine was the one who had
written such blasphemy?


Yes I guess I am in a way. She is supposed to be the one that doesn't
have a mental problem.

Exactly what is John's mental problem which causes him to behave as he does
Larry?

Quote:
And John knows how I feel about certain things,

Yup and he doesn't give a crap whether he offends you or anyone else.

Quote:
I do not need to beat him over the head with it as some seem to do.

Not everyone is a pacifist Larry.


Quote:
If Elaine had said that, I would have said the same thing to her that
I did John.

Rebuke yes, but does it say to nag, gossip, ridicule also?

He reaps what he sows Larry just like everyone else.

In OUR OPINION, what disgusting sexually filthy name johnnie has
called US is offensive, yet he still continues to do so.

What he has admitted to and that is all I am going to say on the

So are you saying if he sows evil, you are suppose to return evil back

to him? I didn't mean just you.
