Ha ha! I will remember that next time I am in a discussion.
I love the new blog look!!!!
I honestly didn’t make that up either. I was reading a blog post where someone was trying to show how a certain thing is evil and a bunch of people commented to her that she had no real Biblical basis to say that. That she was just adding her own preferences to Scripture. Well, she followed up the post with another post basically saying, if you feel like she was stepping on your toes, its because you feel guilty about your position and you need to be more open to the Lord’s correction in your life. I had an extended review of her blog post but my wife won’t let me post it because she feels its too sarcastic, which it probably is.
