  1. Thanks
    whisperingsage reacted to ... in Hello Is anyone willing to be interviewed?   
    It was probably just a type-o.  You know, like I'm sure you meant, "you are taking" instead of "you taking."  A simple type-o doesn't mean that English isn't her native language.
    She may or may not even be Christian.  She simply asked if anyone would be willing to be interviewed for her college class.  That's why I asked if she would give us a bit more information.

    Well, you really don't have any way of knowing where people have received their training. Personally, I think it may be a mistake if ALL you know you got yourself. Not that we aren't to study-of course we are, but you're telling me then that you have either sought out pastors who only teach what you believe, or you reject ALL pastors as wrong, because they haven't received what you have? 
    As for myself, while I certainly have set under many pastors, since I became a pastor myself I have learned a lot of things through my own study, in preparation for preaching, and have come to conclusions different from what I was taught-and I would suspect many pastors here have done the same. It is easy to just receive what is given to you when you are just a hearer, as it were, but when you have the burden of teaching, you tend to study harder to ensure that what you are teaching IS the truth. This is how I came to the rapture position I have taken. But it has never changed my thoughts on the millennial reign of Christ as a literal thing, and many other things I was taught before I have held to because in study, they still stand.

    They wouldn't let me in there; said I was too ugly.
