Just An Observation |
Lead | |
|
Hello everyone. I don't post often as my communication skills are severely lacking. I felt led to say a few things regarding what I have observed going on
in this forum. First, my intention is not to anger anyone or start a whizzing contest. But... it sure seems to me that anyone who "thinks outside the
box" or has a different take on things than the majority of those here are treated like "How dare you say something like that! I certainly don't
agree with that!" type of attitude. Case in point is the McCain thread. I personally have gotten something from EVERYONE on here in my ongoing learning of
Gods word. And that most certainly means Abbzeq and DK as well. Please folks, lets give each other some leeway. We are all gifted in one aspect or another and,
hopefully, are trying to achieve the same end, at some point to hear the awesome words "Well done my good and faithful servant." Bruce

Seriously though on this issue. One person who i do respect called Cindy McCain a tare and holds true to his opinion. I just want to know the truth not his
opinion. So if his opinion is correct or even very close to being right, i want to understand. To this date the evidence is not enough to convict period. If
you read back you will find that it is he or them who have now accused me and some others of ignorance on, not only this issue but more.
But its ok. I forgive any trangressions because i know they are very good students for sure and hope i am forgiven also. I dont think any of us are troublemakers. So be it. agape. |

Bruce ,
Well said... It would be nice if it could be given a rest. It's taking away from studies and what we're here for (focus has been on that particular thread from what I can see). I'd like to see everyone take a step back for a second and think where it keeps going. Give it a rest and speak about it to themselves. I can see where everyone is coming from there, but why keep going on when it goes no where? Can it be Put Up On The Shelf? I LOVE YOU ALL VERY MUCH. You're all wonderful!!!
In CHRIST, Garret
Luke 21
14 Settle it therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what ye shall answer: 15 For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist. 16 And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolk, and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death. 17 And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake. 18 But there shall not a hair of your head perish. 19 In your patience possess ye your souls. |

The depth of doctrine. | ||
|
Hi Bruce,
I read through the thread and in the latter pages even added my two cents. I agree with you that it has been the primary focus of recent as well as how it comes across to some (specially to new people).
If I summed up that thread I would say very simply that two students that are very well founded in the word and that have been substantial contributors to the café disagree on some of the terrain under the deep deep water. Their jabs are their style but the content is consistent and we can skim it. Most of the "calm down" commentary is from students that are focusing on the tone and not the content. I just think we have to look past that. Anytime personal attacks override righteous indignation the aftermath always hurts the writer more, and these petty fouls are how maturation takes place. It's very well possible that many people missed a very important lesson/detail of our upcoming events because they were focused on the articulation and feelings. I'm not saying we shouldn't try our best, I'm saying I believe these two are trying their best even if is sometimes seems like spitwads are flying across the room… SPLAT!!!!! See what I mean?
Having no confrontation is pleasant and honorable to strive for but there is a reason there is a Mercy Seat… we're independent thinkers to a common understanding. As a forum there is an endless list of links to click on and any particular thread is easily avoided by not clicking on the link. One non-step and the entire thing can be avoided if it offends. I'm very confident that both this forum oversight and His oversight are well aware of what is being discussed… I have been evaluating both sides with earnest intent because both are based upon the same SCN teachings. One of these, or some blend of both of these is in the doctrine for those that get in the same depth at these two.
Why is this important to us? + Most recently… there was a Lance character that was a very respected SCN student and he ended up with a following and then a terrible fall from our doctrine. + Most notable… There was a character that was so high up the chain he was a body guard to God and he leveraged the technicalities of the deep to convince 1/3 that his version of the doctrine was correct. + Most immanent… The greatest doctrinal test of the entire second earth age and culmination of humanity.
I want to know what these two think.
With much love,
Stephan |

I read some of that McCain thread and it appears to be out of control. Must be an election year thing. I agree that we are not here to 'Sow discord among
brethren'. Doing that only makes us more susceptable to anger and satan's trap.

Satan's oldest MO is to divide and conquer. A house divided cannot stand. Think about it, there is only one entity that would want God's elect to argue
and divide themselves and get them to start judging each other. The evil and the wicked have everything in this world wrapped up in a nice neat bow to have the
coming of their father happen and for prophecy to be fulfilled. They have infiltrated every aspect of the 4 dynasties and that includes the election. The
election process is not so sacred that it is not infiltrated by the evil and the wicked and they have their hands deep into the pot of politics and politicians
and that is how our country got to the condition it is in the first place. There is a reason that there are only the candidates that there are to vote for and
if you vote your conscience, you will be throwing away your vote anyway and if you dont vote, the end result is the same if you voted for someone other than
the parties nominee. This is how the process works and none of us can change that. This is the time that economic collapse is happening and the NWO is on the
brinks of coming into total fruition. We have been under a one-world system for decades. These people have killed a lot of people and tore respectable people
to the ground to have their plans fulfilled. This is the negative part of God's plan and it will happen. We are living in a different world than what any
one of us were born into regardless of our ages here on this forum. The things that have happened just in the last 10 years have changed our lives and futures
dramatically. The tares are preparing the way for their father, but in reality they are being set up to be the footstool of Christ and they will be destroyed
and each one of us here has something to do with that in some respect either large or small. I have respect for everyone on this forum that are here for the
good of God's elect. There are people here that are like walking encyclopedias that have so much knowledge to share and to make you dig into your brain and
studies to go deeper than you could of ever thought you could. To have differences is not a negative thing and this is how people grow, but to let Satan come
in and divide and actually cause hurt and to take away our ability to share information and knowledge with each other is giving him the upper hand, probably
even more so than the degree of who will sit in the white house.
Just keep in mind that there is a possibility that the election process may not even take place or something may happen that the person elected may not even get to sit in the white house. If any kind of terror attack or huge natural disaster happens while Bush is in office, he will call martial law and he has the power to become basically a dictator and the whole game changes. This was an executive order that was done after 9/11 and it could very well happen. Just take a look at Pakistan and what happened there. It can happen and we should be prepared for whatever comes our way. So it is a possibility that there may not even be an election come November and/or a new president take control of the white house come the first of next year. Just something to stick in your hat and think about considering all that is being discussed in the other thread. What will happen for sure none of us knows, but we do all know how it ends up. |

I am doing the book of Daniel with PM and I just heard him say this and it is something we all should consider this deeply.
Let's not judge people. You know it is a great turn off when you ask somebody to judge someone else. That is a sin. It is alright to discern and say I need to steer this course away from that organization or whatever the case may be, but dont judge. An example, it would of been real easy to judge Nebechannezzer (spelling?) when he was in that pit, right? But he was doing God's bidding. That was God's plan so we could see learn, know and understand. So see, God does many things that were a teaching and who are we to judge, think about it. |

Seecliff I can't even begin to express how much I agree with everything you said.
I too have thought Pres. Bush would be the last president to sit in the white house, and something would happen before another president takes office. We will see. As I pray about this presidential election I think of Daniel in Babylon, I think of Joseph in Egypt, and so many others that were able to function in the Lord despite the rulers over them. I think of Peter's love and good intentions when he tried to stop the Lord's very purpose for being here, and in the process he put his "love" and "good intentions" before God's. At this time God told us our rulers would be like children over us. We (as a country) are paying the price of the choices we made. There are kenites at work but our Father is at work too. He is dealing with His children. He has a plan He is bringing forth for the good of His children. This is a time to turn to our Father not castigate each other. If we put as much energy into seeking our Father's face as we have arguing with each other, how powerful that would be.

This is the final level , (as i see it) / impo - COMPASSION (even on the enemy) (on a SPIRITUAL LEVEL) . . .though it still hurts to see ALL THE EVIL , (going on around us) - i do will not condone it , (...but i understand its purpose ) "FATHER" is weeding out the bad HATE and DETEST THE EVIL ...but not a deceived soul Even the TARES have been lied to (satan can't promise them anything beyond the flesh life)!!! [FAMILY IN CHRIST] "FATHER" uses the ENEMY , (to control , or to correct even HIS own children) (and in the end, they are HIS ARMY too) remember even the lying spirit asked for permission - to go to King AHAB "FATHER" is the one in control , ( "more than most know") . . .and even with old NEB , (he converted) - and what a prayer he had .... "or statement", (in the book of Daniel) - Chptr 4 so i understand the animosity many have , (STRONG IT IS)!!!!! - but (in the end) , this is about SALVATION. THAT'S THE GAME WE ARE PLAYING FOLKS (.....not that this is a game) ....so perhaps this is a poor choice of words - and even the ENEMY , (can change their ways) , ...and become , (CHILDREN OF THE MOST HIGH) - In due season (........perhaps) - Even a TARE can become a CHILD of GOD!!! (*if certain rules are followed*) - we shall see , (what shall be) ( ...when all is said and done) -AGAPE- (children of THE MOST HIGH) Don

THANK GOD, FATHER IS IN CONTROL! We are all just flesh and we are all imperfect. We all fall short, but our Father, YHVH, does not. He is divine perfection and
that is the Rock that we must lean on and plant ourselves on. He knows we fall short and he loves us despite our faults and shortcomings. I couldn't
imagine my life without this faith and without my brothers and sisters in Christ. I thank Father for each and every one of you. I have seen miracles happen in
my family because of your prayers and I have learned so much from so many of you. I have learned a lot not only about The Word, but about myself here. I know
satan attacks the elect because we are his only true threat at this time. He can't stand that we even exist and he would love nothing better than one of us
to faulter. Satan is working over time lately and it is each of us' responsibility to cast him out in Christ's, Yeshua's name at the very second we
recognize him messing in our lives. The closer we get to the end times, the more we will have to cast him out. I will cast him out in Christ's name a 100
times a day if I have to and I truly believe that the closer we get, the harder he is going to try to mess with us. So let's remember that satan will use
the best of his little tricks to divide us and cause strife between the elect and let us have the insight to see it and to not allow him to have one iota of
power amongst us. Like I said before, you never know, there may come a day when we are all brought together somewhere at some point in time to fulfill our
destiny's for God's plan and we must be united and have love and understanding for one another, lest we will be divided and satan will inch his way in
amongst us. The entire bible was written for our generation and there are so many examples for us to learn by and know what to do and what not to do. So
let's go kick some dragon butt and be strong and united and see through all the lies and deception that satan will throw in our faces and use to his
advantage. Let's stand strong together and with the power of our Father so that we will never be defeated or separated. We are on the winning side and we
will have the victory!

BaTora wrote: Hello Stephan.
I can tell when you say "these two", you're referring to Abbzeq and myself. I can not speak for Abbzeq, so, he will ultimately have to speak for himself. I can only speak for myself, and I will right now. Since I have come to this board, I have had people point the finger at me in times past, as well as openly confront me in the open forum. What most people don't know is that there has been PM's that have also floated around about me. I have also taken notice of the subtle, but still very present jabs that people have taken towards me as well. IMHO, that shows the lack of maturity of some of the members of this board. It's bad enough that we have outsiders trying to tear the body of Christ apart, but it becomes especially dangerous when it's being done by members within the body. Anyhow, there are certain attacks that I especially do not like, and just can't ignore. I do not appreciate it when people try to tell me (or Abbzeq) that we're unfounded in God's word concerning the knowledge of the kenties, and how they operate because what we say supposedly isn't written in Biblical scripture. Naturally, the kenites who are operating today are not mentioned in specific detail, nor by name or title in God's word. However, you are told to "count" (Psephizo) the number of the beast in Revelation chapter 13. So, in order to do that, you must study history, and note the dealings of the kenites through history, and up to the present in order to understand what is going on. I admit, I do not know everything about the history of the kenites, and some of it is deeply tangled (for obvious reasons). However, I do feel led by the spirit to share what I know, and that is all that I can do. If I can't fill in ALL the gaps, then hey, perhaps SOME filled gaps is better than NONE, right ? I'm almost positive that Abbzeq feels the same way on this, and I'll also go further to say that Abbzeq has probably studied the kenties in more depth even than I have. If you've paid any attention to my postings in the past, then you would know one of my main areas of talent is understanding Biblical langauges. Why do I feel it's so important ? It's simple. While you can use a concordance to break any word in the English back to the Hebrew or Greek, still, that doesn't match having an in-depth submersion into the original languages. There is also a cultural mindset behind Biblical langauges that can not be gained without careful and crucial study of those langauges. I know this bothers and upsets some people, but it's true. Without inserting yourself into the mindset of the authors of the Bible, then you're really going to be missing some valuable gems of truth, and without that truth, you're knowledge of the Bible is incomplete. Our modern-western points of view stem largely from Greco-Roman sources and teachings. The Bible was not written from that perspective, nor was it written by the Greeks and Romans (or other early Indo-European peoples). It was written by the ancient Hebrews of the Bible. Pastor Murray does NOT go into detail on this subject on the air, or in any of his works for that matter. Why you may ask ? Its simple. Pastor Murray tells you that his main objective is to teach God's word, not the history, theology, or langauges surrounding it. While each of those fields may yield additional fruits, still, it's not his primary objective. He leaves it to you, the student to do your own homework in those areas. Those that put in the labor and hard work in those areas will reap the benefits from it. It's as simple as that. Naturally, all gifts are for the service to God, and for the edification of the body of Christ as a whole. Hence, why I sometimes will go to great lengths to try to explain the more in-depth reasoning behind certain words, and their usage in scripture. If I didn't feel people would benefit from it, I wouldn't do it. It's that simple. The same thing can be said about my comments and posts regarding the serpent seed doctorine. This is also an area that Pastor Murray doesn't cover in extensive depth, for he leaves it up to the student to do some of the research on their own. If you don't want to study any of the extra-cirricular areas of the Bible in-depth, then hey, thats fine. However, don't expect to see the blessings that comes from such extra work, and don't try to prevent people who have done the work in those areas from sharing what they've learned with others on this board. To do so, for whatever reason (jealousy, disbelief, personal grudges, etc) is to in fact disallow the Holy Spirt it's ability to speak through those people, and be a living witness unto others. Basically put, don't try to extinguish someone else whose holding the torch that sheds light in a dark area.

Dk.............You can go back and read the my posts in the McCain thread if you like. I did not have a problem with what you were presenting. I didn't
agree with your view point. But that's OK. We've been on oposite sides before. My problem was and is the way you presented it. Idiots, Swine,
Hypocrites, Anyone disagreeing with you by voting for McCain will be standing against Christ. These are statements that you made.......................Now you
are trying to play the victim. It's called a victim mentality................You want members of this site to take you seriously? Treat them with respect.
And don't try to appoligize in one post then hammer away in the next.................You have very good things to present here. As I've said in the
past..............Scott

Swig, I'm calling it as I see it. Yes, I said that if people are so eager to have a war on terror, then by all means, go join the military and do it yourself. If they don't, then
they're being hypcritical. People who are so thristy for a war, but don't want to fight it theirselves really show their true colors. It's ok when
its someone elses parents, children, friends and other family members that are over seas fighting these terrorists whom our government helped train, arm and
fund, but God forbid if it were them (pro-war hawks) or their loved ones fighting the war.

actions belie stated beliefs.

So if the readers on this site are swine of which you will no longer cast your pearls. Why are you still here? If we are idiots, hypocrites, unworthy of
"your" deep understanding of Fathers letter. Why are you so active on this Shepherds Chapel study site. Not an official SCN site of coarse. Just a
site set up by some very hard working members of the Shepherds Chapel.....................Scott

Scott, I'm going to say this one time, and one time only. You need to stop taking my words out of context, and trying to spin them into a weapon against
me.
Read the McCain thread and look who I called idiots. It wasn't the SCN members I was directing that comment at. It was the idiots of this nation (the public collectively) who have driven it to it's current point between their perversion and terrible political choices. We're now paying the piper for what has occured, and our two choices for political office are proof of this.

DK,
I'm not sure what you're talking about because my thread clearly supports everything you just said to me… I said I wanted to hear what you two were discussing. I said it was more important for students to see past the drama and see what kind of facts we can get from it. If "these two" want to add personal jabs or not is irrelevant to me if the information you discuss helps us go forward… which is why I said I wanted to hear what you both had to say. I was speaking in your defense but I can't condone how the articulation went. BaTora |

I know Stephen, and I wasn't trying to sound "defensive" towards you. I know that you're defending me. I was only making some points crystal
clear that I felt needed to be stated on "why" everything has culminated to the point it has.
It's all about simple truth. The truth is really simple, and you know it. Hence, why it upsets some people when it's revealed. We live in a world where Satan tries to blind people to simple common sense. Then, when someone manages to pull the wool away from others eyes, they sometimes get criticized for doing so because some people don't want to hear the simplicity of the truth. Strange, eh ? Anyways, what in particular did you want me or Abbzeq to comment on lol ? I think it's been lost in the midsts of all this.

Nothing in particular, I was following the thread and picking up the points everyone was making so I could understand better myself. I know people get caught
up in the moment and when I said that jabs always hurt the writer it's because I've done it a lot. I usually write a response and walk away for a bit
before I read it again and then post, but I still say things sometimes that takes the focus away from my point.
Do you have a website or something like that where you publish your documentation or homework? This has helped me quite a bit because I can have a clean presentation and refer to it, then any discussion that happens here is easier to let flow. BaTora |

BaTora wrote: I see your points Stephen. I too think it's sometimes best to write something, and then take a break, and come back and finish it later. Sometimes, we get so drawn into our work that we forget what we're doing, and we make mistakes and may not be aware of it. I remember once doing a rather large write up on the serpent seed doctorine and how it relates to the book "Sargon the magnificent" by Sidney Bristowe. I had page numbers from her book, and typed out references to connect it to certain parts of the Bible, and I also had some more in-depth Hebrew explanations to go along with certain words. Sadly, I don't have that write up anymore. It's on an old laptop back in Virginia at my mothers house, and while I did post it on another board at one point in time, it was eventually deleted by the moderators due to the constant controversy (go figure). So yea, I see what you mean about keeping the information written on a site of your own, so then you can just easily manage and reference it. I might have to look into doing that. I try not to do such things because having your own site then means it's an added responsibility.
