@jerrydorris I’m having trouble believing you’re a real human being @jerrydorris. Is this a bot account?

[JEasterly2 @BoomBoomJohnny2]

@samuel_costner Shame on all of you. What do you care if he talks with his hands?

If you want to argue his theology, fine.
If you want to argue why you think this is a bad idea during renovations… ok, I guess.

But you are just jerks, making fun of a man.
May the Lord close your mouths.

[JEasterly2 @BoomBoomJohnny2]

@Tokyo_pi1 Slight bit of nuance here… a Christian can argue that something should be legal without commending it as moral.

I’m not saying that’s exactly what happened here. But that is a category.

[JEasterly2 @BoomBoomJohnny2]

@jdtemple3rd @ferrismattic By this you mean there’s always ultimately one person calling the shots? Because that’s not the case. There’s often a specific individual assigned (by consensus) to carry out a specific job or task, but that doesn’t mean one person always has unilateral authority in a church.

@cswilliams63 @nickhenninghill @SamAllberry Please present your evidence that Sam said or taught that inner desires for sin (including homosexuality) are not sinful unless they become actions.

@Protestia Sounds like you’ve been hoping for this brother’s downfall for a while now…in addition to the blatant false witness you’ve been on this post.

@jonharris1989 He didn’t “embrace this state of affairs”. Stop.

@maklelan If we are referring to the new birth, then election is the condition.

[JEasterly2 @BoomBoomJohnny2]

@kaizen000000000 That’s not what debate looks like. It’s what a discussion among a few guys, that’s been heavily edited to show all the speaking of one person, looks like.

At least engage in good faith.

@11point7 9th inning.
Two outs.
One run ballgame.
Tying run on first base.
0-2 the count.
That’s a ball all day.

@Mappy6984 Even if you disagree with him, you have to agree the kid is holding his own.

@maklelan The regulatory statutes of a country do not necessarily indicate their highest ideals. Laws often function as restraints/concessions to the fallenness of humanity, e.g. divorce.

[JEasterly2 @BoomBoomJohnny2]

@maklelan In other words, the rest of us are blind men with the elephant, but Dan sees the whole elephant. Lol

@JeffVanderstelt Preaching is not lecture.

[JEasterly2 @BoomBoomJohnny2]

@maklelan Everyone who presupposes that the texts must contradict has convinced themselves that the texts do contradict. If the accounts were identical word-for-word, you’d claim collusion.

[JEasterly2 @BoomBoomJohnny2]

@drantbradley For many of the same reasons I listen to you when I find some of your views problematic.

[Owen Strachan @ostrachan]

Christians often feel like their lives don't count for Christ. Unlike missionaries, pastors, and leaders, their life is small.

But God's glory is in a quieter life, too.

Caring for a spouse with dementia.

Raising little ones to know Christ.

Serving your church as a single person.

Doing your job day in and day out for 40 years.

Brewing the coffee on Sunday morning.

Being a friendly neighbor where you live.

Counseling a young couple through marital trials.

Leading a small group that blesses numerous folks.

Doing hospitality when you can.

Taking the Lord's Supper to saints in a nursing home.

Visiting the sick.

Calling a discouraged friend.

Apologizing to someone you've hurt.

Persevering through an extended season of hardship.

Bearing with a family member who's challenging.

Patiently talking through years of broken communication.

Reaching out to a new family at church who feels lonely.

All these things matter.

All these things are seen by God.

All quiet faithfulness will be rewarded by God.

There is glory in the little things, friends.

@ruzzjr @maklelan @WesleyLHuff @Wisdom_Dosage There’s no doubt that Dan has more degrees, but his argument here is just REALLY not convincing. But he’s ideologically committed to it and his rhetorical goals depend on it. He cannot and will not ever concede.

[JEasterly2 @BoomBoomJohnny2]

@maklelan @WesleyLHuff @Wisdom_Dosage Dan, you’re cooked on this one.
