QUOTE (Jeff Joseph @ Aug 22 2008, 09:01 PM)

Well just why did I post this topic damo if you know so much about me? I posted this topic for this reason.
There is a Pastor in my town name John Gilbertson, Now this man has not done his job and he was not there for me when I needed a Holy man to talk to. Then I find out both this man and his wife were both born again christians when they married there first spouces. They both divorced and remarried eachother which the bible makes clear is sin. Now God would rather have people remarry then to burn with desire but when remarried they forfitted there rights to be leaders in the Church. Now if he wants to go preach with his wife he has every right to but he does not have the right anymore the be called a "Pastor".
I didn't make the rules, God did. I just point them out and people don't like it.
A message from my mother to you Damo.
God be praised that your friend was able to endure without complaint . . . but you are not your friend. Have you ever endured what your friend did? Have you ever endured what my son is enduring? If you are laying there in agony without moan, groan, or complaint, than I admire you, for even the Psalmist whined to God over his pain and enemies, but if you are not or have not suffered, then perhaps you need to reread Job and see how his "friends" judged him that he was some how responsible for his own suffering, had no right to complain, and needed to fess up over whatever sin he had committed. Job cursed the day he was born. Job complained about his misery, and God did deal with him, but God also pointed out that Job's friends were wrong! No one knows until they are suffering themselves how "tough" they will be. When women have babies, some scream, kick, and curse their husbands, while there are others who barely utter a peep excepts words of affection, and you wouldn't know they were in pain. Use the scriptures. If you believe something, prove it with scripture, and be careful of what translation you use, because I found a verse that the Living Bible completely changed the meaning from what was in the King James.
hm i dont know why you are having to get your mother involved in the post you set up jeff and i would like to say this you know nothing of what i went threw or what its like for those who live in war torn countrys jeff you only have your tv in front off you and you only hear what the reporter wants you to hear and its the same with the news paper you read
this shows me what sort of spirit is in you jeff joseph but hay i am willing to play if you want to tel me what its like to be in a wheel chair since you feel i know not what its like to suffer
why on earth would some one like my self now what its like to suffer since we have some one hear who has a gripe towards pastors who have let him down
and when you leave something be ready to be challanged i dont use my friends or do i hide behind the scripture passages i am so comfterbal with and i wil not tone down or will i pitty you jeff joseph
its between you and god not between me and the members of this forum you have no back bone you wil not forgive those who have let you down and hurt you instead you come to forums like this and whine
hay i did this when i was mocking god i dont do this know
lets see what paul had to say since you feel you understand what paul said in the very verse you have posted which did not give us much info
that is why i like pushing when i see only one verse with out the full reason behind the verse you have put up
1 corinthians
20 where is the one who is wise where is the scribe where is the debater of this age ? has not god made foolish the wisdom of the world
1 corinthians 2
2 for i decided to know nothing among you except Jesus christ and him crucified
3 and i was with you in weakness and in fear and in much trembling
why was paul scared when he said what he said in his epistles and when he confronted the cornith church why did he have to fear the men he was about to pull up
have you done a study on the people paul was talking to jeff joseph ? instead of telling me how wrong it is for pastors to divorce and then say they should not have the right to preach if they divorce their spouce
what if the spouce divorces her husband who is a pastor what if the pastor finds out his wife who he loved since he was young is having an afair with another man ? should the pastor who finds out that his wife is having an afair step down jeff joseph since jeff joseph has this hine sight to really under stand why paul said what he said with out having the back bone to do some re search on the people paul was speaking to ?
i want you jeff joseph to take a look at what i am going to leav you and have some back bone i dont want to hear what your mother has to say i want to hear what this is saying to you since you feel it is wrong for pastors to Remarry its so easy to sit in judgment on our pastors but when the holy spirit wants you to deal with the sins you are holding on to you wil not do this you seem to look at what pastors are doing and then sit in judgment on them and you wonder why god wil not respond to you i know you can read and i hate leaving long posts
1 corinthians 7
1 Now concerning the matters about which you wrote it is good for a man not to have sexual relations with a women
can you show me were paul is saying this to only pastors
2 But because of the temptation to sexual imorality each man should have his own wife and each women her own husband
6 Now as a conssesion not a command i say this
7 i wish that all were as i myself am but each has his own gift from God one of a one kind and one of another
8 to the unmarried and the widows i say that it is good for them to remain single as i am
9 But if they cannot exercise self control they should marry for it is better to marry than burn with passion
10 to the married i give this charge not i but the lord the wife should not seperate from her husband
11 but if she does she should remain unmarried or else be reconciled to her husband and the husband should not divorce the wife
now with out telling me what this pastor has done as its gossip and i do not want to hear what this pastor did to some one like you who has suffered i dont want you turning to your mother and asking her to help you because what i say comes from the pits off hell
since you decided to place what you placed and have the back bone to run this pastor down and state pastors who remarry should not have the right to preach
can you live by what i have placed hear for you to ponder on i dont want to hear what its been like for you this is not a self pitty party were i say oh poor baby i feel sorry for you and just agree with you
have some back bone jeff joseph
i wil not change to the way i approach you i am making this clear to you
what right do you have to say this pastor wronged you and what right does this give to place his name on this forum and run him down ?
what a man does is no ones concern and if a man catches his wife cheating behind his back or decides he wants to divorce her its none off your concern it between him his wife and god you have no right to judge that pastor god wil deal with him when the time is right if he has wronged his first wife god wil bring this before him
but if his wife decided its over and their is no love for that person why should both partys stay married if their is no love what so ever
just because we have the bible saying one thing it does not mean that those who dont belong to god should obey what paul had to say
know do some re search and see for your self why paul said this
and i dont want to hear what its been like for you poor baby you want some soft music playing in the back ground do you want some tissues or better use my shirt to wipe the tears that are falling down your face
i am not going to walk the road you want me to walk to were we discuss what we have been threw i shared something to you thinking it would sink in may be i should have kept what i said to my self
time for you to stop playing the victem jeff joseph
