whose sin did the Ap Paul 'stand against'; in the NT, how did he go about it?
Dean writes:
All manner of sin and he went about it by publicly declaring to repent of sin and to receive Christ as savior-He did this in the market places ,Temples, Homes,on oceans and isles- and even in front of kings- in many countries. He also called down Ananias for his sin-and brought the wrath of God on him.

Dean, You asked me about the Ap Paul's love (in this context)--and i'd say, do nothin' different than he suggested to Tim (e.g., ch6/1Tim)
Dean writes:
The love Paul had was also kindled with a strong stand against sin.
FTR, If you wanna be lead around by the nose, at least give the HS a chance to do it; if you prefer Izzy and DavidM to do it, that's your business--just like choosin' your own undies--it's up to you; just (pls!) don't wind 'em up in a knot just before you write to (me at) TT
Dean writes:
Two things:
1. How can someone lead me around that disagree with me.
2. I know of no knot-and the one you see isn't there-try some eye drops:-)

I see-be meek,quite giving no offence-not act as a fool-as it would seem that you believe I have erred from the faith. If this is what you meat to say-I am sorry you feel this way Gary as I believe you missed what I have been trying to say.

Dean, et. al.,
The perfection JC speaks of here is rooted in 'loving one's enemies' (too)--not merely/only in loving one's 'brethren'
Dean writes:
How about the worker of Iniquity that God hates-that is the issue here-I agree that one should love our enemies but there are limits-Satan is my enemy-should I love him? I am saying that one has to use wisdom on separating the groups of people you are dealing with-all are not the same.Did Paul love Ananias of Acts 23:2-No he didn't. Paul said "God shall smite thee,thou whited wall...History show that Ananias died with 3 yrs of this event-Where was Paul's love here Gary?
