20. Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! (Isaiah 5:20)

So let us be truthful always, so that we may be a servants of the righteousness

Even more importantly--

6. "If anyone causes one of these little ones--those who believe in me--to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea. (Matthew 18:6)

Let's be truthful so we may always present the LOVE and JOY to every child and NOT steal that LOVE and JOY by replacing it with FEAR, HATE, BIGOTRY, OPPRESSION, and INCEST...

You seems to hate, this kind of exhortations, of honesty?

Don't you think that it is strange behavior for a man?

You should make improvement in your life, because now you rise against for sound doctrine, and try to case dispute, for your acts.

I am telling you, that it is the way of the flesh what you practice now, and you should turn, for your soul.

ROFLMAO...seriously? Is the sun still shining in that part of the world? Get some VITAMIN D....


Because I say teach the children JOY and LOVE, you see this as being in direct oppostion to Isaiah 5:20?


Do we really need to ask who the hater is?

You make a good point, but I think what you're neglecting to acknowledge is that PEOPLE make mistakes, not God. Evil or misguided people spread fear, hate, bigotry, oppression, and take part in incest. Just because someone does those things in the name of God, does not mean they are of God or speaking with the authority of the Holy Spirit. All of those evil things are tools of the enemy, and none of them will ever be used as weapons of God to extend his kingdom. Anyone who thinks so has accepted a lie and is following the enemy. Remember, not everyone who calls on His name and says "Lord, Lord!" is doing God's work, even if he does it for God's sake.

Not everyone who calls out others for what they perceive as evil speaks with understanding.

The point I neglected to emphasize is that it is MUCH MORE important to provide guidance and instruction to others than it is to spend our days identfying others' "evil" deeds...

Send another memo to the worldly Churches, they missed the message.
