"I should have updated that post....The one thing I feel like I just keep on instinctively looking to do is short comments, similar to the rep comments..." ~ Zoo22 link
"I assume the "thread dropping" was making reference to where we could meet once we're banned (here)..."
"...[I]t was the "Change you can believe in" thread. Del banned you for posting links without commenting on them."
Link dropping. update. Does TH update small observations pt II his thread? I think it is more likely that the ban was in response to my rebuking Delmar last week for praising antichrists.
Only by pride cometh contention (Pr 13:10, KJV).
"You and I both know that it's just a matter of
time."
Guess who I followed last week on
Twitter
(a
TOL member). I'll give you a hint: I follow all the
god-hating reprobates that I can find.

"I got
banned again as well (until Oct 25, "name calling
without a cause"). I don't tweet and I rarely
check out my FB page. Who?..."
Oh no! Cerealisly?
I follow P66 on Twitter.
"What are your thoughts on this site? Link
[From your link: 'Is obedience necessary to salvation and forgiveness of sins?']
Trust and obedience go hand in hand. When you trust, you begin to obey. We aren't sinless. We sin less.For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do [Rom. 7:19].
"Have you experienced this?"
Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me [Rom. 7:20].
"It is that old nature, my friend, that is causing us trouble."
I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me [Rom. 7:21].
"When you are attempting to serve God in the Spirit, have you discovered that the old nature is right there to bring evil? Perhaps an evil thought will come into your mind. Every child of God, regardless of his state, must admit that in every act and in every moment evil is present with him. Failure to recognize this will eventually lead to shipwreck in the Christian life. " McGee, J. V. (1991). Thru the Bible commentary: The Epistles (Romans 1-8) (electronic ed., Vol. 42, p. 133). Nashville: Thomas Nelson.

"And here you gave me a bad time for following his? youtube videos."
I
follow him on Twitter but I
would never click on any of his
links. I'd need to
scrub
my eyeballs.
I let that God-awful video play
in the background to see if
there is any way that I might
reach out to this person in the
future.
We don't go to the bars to reach
out to drunks
and we don't need to view their
vulgar images
to understand them
(Jn 3:19).
Delmar may want a Chatty Kathy
but I trust God's word do it's
work (Isa 55:11).
I think it's important to take
current events and provide a
biblical principle to go along
with them.
That's what Jesus did (Lk
13:5)...
"I deleted 4 posts, my heart just wasn't in them, maybe because of what get's a free pass on TOL: http://www.theologyonline.com/forums/sh ... stcount=56..."
The atmosphere at TOL has been quite negative in the last year. Why do you think that is...?
"I suppose it's threefold:
1). People like me pointing out
the evil that lurks throughout
our country and world, and
others not appreciating it
because I've just exposed their
lifestyle.
2). Christians like yourself
continually arguing that your
version of Christianity is
better than someone else's.
3). Pagans and atheists pretty
much given free reign on TOL.
The above is one man's
opinion..."
There are certainly many antichrists (2 Pe 2:1) there. I think technical issues have something to do with it as well.
"Your ban lasts longer? ...Not sure when I'll go back, if ever."
I hope you do. I wonder if there are other Christian forums that are any good.
"Del banned you for posting links without commenting on them....[T]hat ever so evil thing of linking important information without commenting on it."
"This one aint too bad (considering the riff raff you let in)."
Just you and me – changing the world! Mk 16:15"On that note, I'm off to the gym (gotta work off those million cheeseburgers I've eaten in my lifetime)... In a while crocodile..."
No slacking! 1 Ti 4:8When you get back there, I hope you keep at it on your anti-homo thread. It gets a lot of attention online. I will have to show you the stats from my own website. You've got a prophetic burden to deliver. Keep at it despite the opposition (Pr 13:10, Re 2:13). If there is no cultural push back, the homos win (Eze 3:20)...
Later alligator.
[Workout] I guess an 8 minute workout at the gym is better than nothing.
I hate when that happens.
"God gave me the strength and wisdom to pursue this project..."
The administrators are not your enemy. Satan is (Eph 6:12). Keep on keepin' on.
"If I quit I'd be abandoning Him and all of the good people that are fighting this aspect of the culture war (i.e. sexual sins)."
That's right. It's a battle for the mind and spirit (Ac 26:18, 2 Thess 2:9, Re 16:14). You're right. They're wrong. I appreciate your saying so (Lev 18:22, 20:13, 1 Ki 14:24, Ro 1:24, 26, 27). I'd compliment you more but I don't want you loosing rewards in heaven (Mt 6:16)."...Regarding TOL: I'll be back, as they're one of the few internet forums that hasn't banned me for life (you really should be more selective with who you befriend sd, I can be a bad influence on people)."

What
will the
new and
improved
ACW look
like?
Each
time I
get
banned
I try to
think of
ways to
improve.
One
thing I
don't do
anymore
is
respond
to
people
who
offer
nothing
more
than an
ad
hominem
attack.
Make
them
make an
argument.
If they
don't
offer
anything,
move on.
Their
arguments--on
the rare
occasion
that
they
make
them
--fail
(Eccl
10:2, Jn
10:10).
"I don't tweet and I rarely check out my FB page."
I never
read
Facebook
but I
like
Twitter.
If you
change
your
mind
about
Twitter,
may I
recommend
Buffer
App?
You can
reach a
lost and
dying
world
with
God's
word (Jn
17:17).
As I
told
you, I
only
follow
godless
heathens.
Sometimes
I get a
message:
Are you
sure
you're
following
the
right
person?
I tell them that I am. Jesus said I will make you fishers of men (not maybe, sort of ). Mt 4:19, ESV.
[Moderators] "...I subtly mock them when I can, that's how much I respect them for allowing evil to prevail and banishing little angels like you and me."
With friends like that who needs enemies?

"I think I got banned for agreeing with Brother Vinny that he is an "attention whore"."
I guess
you'll
find out
when you
get
back.
Seinfeld
on old
people
and
Florida:
"These
people
work and
wait
their
whole
lives to
move
down
here,
sit in
the
heat,
pretend
it's not
hot, and
enforce
these
rules."
"
"I logged on early this morning and updaed the table of contents in my thread. As I suspected, the ban was for calling Brother Vinny an attention whore. Even though I attached the link where he called himself that, it didn't matter."
They could have asked you to rephrase.
"The best leader is the one who has sense enough to pick good men to do what he wants done, and self-restraint enough to keep from meddling with them while they do it." ~ Theodore Roosevelt 1 Pe 5:3"See ya tomorrow on TOL, or back here if I get banned before then."
