You dare not open your mouth in public, so why speak to me about fear?

Employing the 'model' (placards, bullhorns etc.)provided for us by DM & Kevin vis a vis the Super Bowl, Mardis Gras and, outside the Temple in Salt Lake City, would they do the same thing outside a mosque (a Muslim place of worship) and, if not then, whey not?Do revisit what kicked this discussion off. There is a serious point to be made here.----- Original Message -----From: Judy TaylorSent: June 20, 2005 06:56Subject: Re: [TruthTalk] Hill CumorahI don't know about DavidM but I'm sure Kevin and Ruben have encountered Muslims in their SP travels. I figure itwould be tit for tat (with truth on their side) since Muslims call everyone and everything Western "the great Satan" My Scots friend tells me that in the UK the Muslims have taken over and that now the Red Cross will not put anything Christian out at Christmas for fear of offending them. Her brother in Manchester England says he will not give the Red Cross another cent because of it and he isn't even religious. jtOn Mon, 20 Jun 2005 06:34:36 -0400 "Lance Muir" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes:I do not have a problem with 'exposure'. I don't think that that is Dave's point though.May I suggest that an equal. if not greater, danger to believers lies within Islam. Could you imagine David Miller or Kevin going to Mosques and, utilizing bullhorns, villify the attendants by addressing THEM as servants of Satan?From: Judy TaylorI would think it would be more like Jeremiah (see Jer 13:1,2); this is obviously a one time object lesson tothe part of Israel Jeremiah was ministering to rather than a pattern of behavior for all time. However, part of public proclamation of Truth by nature involves exposing the lie of the false gods which of course will be offensive to those who worship them. Why do you have such a problem with this? jtOn Mon, 20 Jun 2005 05:58:55 -0400 "Lance Muir" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes:Elijah.From: Judy TaylorCan you give us a "for instance" DaveH? jtDAVEH: As I understand your position (and please correct me if I am misunderstanding your position), many Christians (specifically you, in this instance) believe that everything written in the Bible is specifically applicable to Christians today. So, if a prophet of the Bible used a technique of mocking, that means it is OK for you to do the same thing. If a prophet of God in the Bible is commanded to go preach on the streets, you assume that instruction applies to you as well....is that correct, Kevin?
To me, that isn't logical at all. Just as what he compelled the prophets of the OT to do was not necessarily applicable to the prophets of the NT, what the Lord wants us to do today may or may not be what he wants us to do today. It seems to me that the Lord over time has commanded various people to do things that he may not have commanded at a subsequent time or other peoples. Hope that makes some sense.....

NOHow so?

DAVEH: My last post about admonishment was regarding the bickering (if that's the proper word for it) Christians who Paul admonished.Please show me where God admonished Paul, for his "much contention"
If you were an apostle as was Paul and admonished me for arguing about theology, I would pay heed. But I don't think you've even claimed to be an apostle, Kevin. (Am I wrong on that?) >From my perspective you seem to be one who is contributing to the contention. Why do you think Paul's admonishment not to contend (Titus 3:9) doesn't apply to you? Isn't it just a matter of perspective? If another TTer were to argue against your understanding of whatever doctrine, why do you think you would be in the right and he would be in the wrong? Do you sincerely believe you are right on all your points of doctrine, or do you allow you may at times be wrong?
DAVEH: And because some of the early prophets mocked with God's blessing, you believe it is your right to do so as well? Isn't that stretching logic a bit beyond it's breaking point?Show me where Elijah was admonished in the scriptures for MOCKING.In fact right after Elijah Mocking the prophets of Baal, God answered his prayer.
God MocksProv 1:26 Because I have called, and ye refused... But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof: I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh
