But that doesn't say It's a 'blast", or say the people doing these things are "wonderful",if you're trying to vindicate them,or say we should try to enjoy the mistreatment,Or that it's our "first choice" to be treated that way. Or that I;m imagining that it's happening,or that it's our fault that they have that arrogant attitude.
Yeah by now I read further on in Timothy.But to my reaction, it still doesn't say we deem it our first choice, or a "fun" thing.When you said "put up with" it ,that's a little more on target than getting on me for mentioning that I don't find it enjoyable. Also, the type of rudeness I was referring to was not nessasarily persecution for our loyalty to Jesus, I meant rudeness in general. Persecution, yes , I understand we're supposed to "be faithful unto death", and "He who has endured to the end shall be saved." But this was more like regular day to day rudeness, not persecution for our beliefs.Did you answer the questions? So are you willing to go through it for Jesus? If you read further how was he delivered? Here is another, how are we to go through those things?
If you only knew how filled with peace your life could be
No matter what I say, you'll disagree with me.Even if I suddenly start posting that I see it your way, and even post a praise report citing that you were right, I'd bet anything that you'll find some little detail to nitpick me on.This is like a hobby to you, like some people play checkers, etc. Your hobby is casting stones at me.It's just one of those things.Was that the answer to the questions? I don't understand why you think you need to think or make things up about what I said or didn't say Steven! Jesus does help us but normally it is when we are willing to give His instructions a try or make them a necessity in our lives
We only suffer for a lack of knowledge my friend or a lack of putting Jesus' knowledge to the test
I'd just be very curious to see if I post something you agree with, if you'd admit it. That is the test.
