Members The Glory Land Posted October 2, 2013 Members Share Posted October 2, 2013 Feeling or proof, you guys need to think before you act. How about if I don't want to join those upstairs. I speak openly and not in lock or controlled forums for some only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Pastor Matt Posted October 2, 2013 Administrators Share Posted October 2, 2013 But I am not a member there? Bad move, to touchy for you. You are not a member there because you never asked. It is like someone standing outside your door and not knocking or ringing the door bell, then complain that they can't get in. "Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you" You chose not to get into the men's forum, so how can you complain that you can't read the posts in there? Just trying to understand the logic. It was your choice not to go into the men's forum. Are you a man? If so, then you qualify. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members The Glory Land Posted October 2, 2013 Members Share Posted October 2, 2013 Thank you for the invitation, but I have never posted in a hiding forum before. I am not saying that it is bad, but what I post is for everyone to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators OLD fashioned preacher Posted October 2, 2013 Author Moderators Share Posted October 2, 2013 Feeling or proof, you guys need to think before you act. How about if I don't want to join those upstairs. I speak openly and not in lock or controlled forums for some only. I DID think before I acted as evidenced by the rational I gave. Now, would you like to give a rational reason as to why my rational was flawed. I will give an example of a legitimate example of what I'm talking about as far as some discussions giving parents pause to allow their 7 year old to find. In consideration of said levels of decorum, I will give the example via PM to you instead of out here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already explained that --- in short, YOUR messages may be but SOMEONE ELSE's may not. Again, there are some products advertised on TV that are not appropriate for 5-8 year old audiences.

Administrators Pastor Matt Posted October 2, 2013 Administrators Share Posted October 2, 2013 The last thing we want is to be a stumblingblock to others. By having protected forums we are following the following passage of Scripture. Romans 14:13 Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge this rather, that no man put a stumblingblock or an occasion to fall in his brother's way.

I agree with you, my point of view was, that I may be preaching to the choir only upstairs. Someone might need it down below. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators HappyChristian Posted October 2, 2013 Administrators Share Posted October 2, 2013 I DID think before I acted as evidenced by the rational I gave.

I will give an example of a legitimate example of what I'm talking about as far as some discussions giving parents pause to allow their 7 year old to find. In consideration of said levels of decorum, I will give the example via PM to you instead of out here. I totally agree with your reasoning, and would add my own. A thread like that doesn't need to be discussed by both men and women on a forum. It's improper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone might need it down below. Why not preach in both then? When I'm speaking on the public street, my style and topics would be different than if I was speaking at a men's conference. Instead of limiting my self to just one place, I go out to reach as many as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
