One of the most useful functions on this forum is the Ignore List.
Some people virtually never fail to produce such unmitigated crap that it beggars belief.
I read their writing and I just wrankle and it kind of ruins my day.
So I put them on my ignore list.
Needless to say this forum attracts a high proportion of this type of person and so my ignore list is extremely long.
Sadly however, if somebody who is not on my ignore list makes an error of judgement and replies to one of these ignorable people using the quote function then the garbage that the ignorable person has written then appears on my screen which defeats the purpose.
Could something be done about this so that Ignored persons can be Ignored even when they are in someone elses post.

Also the View Post function is far too accessible. Being weak in the flesh I sometimes click on this link. Almost without fail I am then reminded why I put them on my Ignore list in the first place and again my day is ruined.

I suppose the ultimate solution is to just put the entire forum on my blocked and banned web site list. It might come to that of course as for some threads I can't read anything which has been written because every poster is on my ignore list.

Maybe you should not base,,your day been good or bad off what people on the forum post......

IF think this forum makes you mad,,, here go to this one,, BIBLETRUTHFORUM.ORG AFTER READIN THERE POST YOUR COMPUTER MIGHT GROW WINGS....

Matthew 6
[14] For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:
[15] But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

True,,,, love covers a multitude of sins.......

Rev 1:9 I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ.

the pagans banned John to Patmos,,,,,,,,,,,because they didn't want to hear his words again,,,,,,,,,,,they put John on their IGNORE list

did Jesus have an IGNORE list?

That is true and unfortunate that we would even have an option to ignore and secondly take advantage of that option and thirdly advertise utilising it. It's probably the very ones we might "consider" ignoring that need to be given the greatest attention? Sure there are a select few members here that I'd like to witness have a decent mature Scriptural discussion on the very basis that "we are in this together" whether we agree or disagree...we need oneanother, or atleast I admit that I certainly do.

Oh well. I'm tired.

I must comfass, I have only one on mine. It takes alot for me to get to the point to block one for me that way. I have been tempted many times, over mean spirited things said, treatment of others, and so on. but i spot and think not to move quickly on things like that. I did block one, because I was feeling like g-d told me to, because of abusive behavor against G-d, not me. I just didnt want to see it! At times when I start to look over posts, I have been told not to read some because of the meaness showing, moving out of love causes one to think move. But I get how youo would like to keep the seemingly trash others puts out to effact your day, by blocking them, It would be hard to give what you are takeing about, unless they found away to but a block butten on that reply and quotes area, so that you can make that not give you those that are here.

I would be careful thought, I did think, what if they change, or grow in some way and I missed it because i blocked them out of my life to that degree. If they did me wrong, and wanted to make it right, but couldnt do so. I am not talking aboug the ones that are truelly not trustworth, but those that learn how...they need that kind of love to show, that gives them the ground to fall, but get back up again. I am not with out falt, miss up all the time, and will do it again, and again, but I try, get back up and have a very long list of this showing. Just lovingly reminding you, it is beautiful to see a brother or sister over come themselves. Way cool!

love you brother, and I get what you mean...it would be nice to be able to have that kind of control, but at times one cant! Should we be given that kind of control over others? At times I need that kind of control, for some are only after prevoking you, intraping one in sin from setting up to take a fall. I believe though that those that do that are just as guilty of that sin as those that did the sin. I love you brother, and hope that you find some kind of way that you can get peace over this.

Hugs!

Yes, I have only one on my ignore list. Never thought I would have to take such an action. And as well, the only time their posts show is when someone would quote their post. In that case it does defeat the ignore purpose....But it is just as easy to skip over the quote....

I admit that I too have put some on my ignore, but every time I conclude it to be temporary, since it has not yet happened 7x77.

Mat 6:14-15 always reminds me to give anyone a new chance (the same as I hope to be forgiven for my own mistakes).

It is a true treasure to see that I am not alone in this.

hi~

couldn't have said it better, you have well said, dennis mann.

excubitor, has it ever occurred to you that the reason so many are on your "ignore" list is because they are speaking truth & you cannot tolerate to see truth that is by the Word of God from the LORD? to find out that the RCC has deceived throughout the centuries is a painful thing to find out, but what is worse is to deny the obvious, for not only are you denying the LORD, you are denying Him by placing a man-made tradition between yourself & Him = idolatry. flee from idols, & flee from false doctrine - the truth is in the Holy Bible. the Holy Ghost, the Holy Bible & fellowship with believers in Christ Jesus is all we need, & all we ever need - the popery does not fit into that category because they boast themselves to be as God in place of God through continuous worship of idols & the sun that rises in the east, that is ANTICHRIST. open your eyes & see that the foundation upon which you stand on is broken, like the iron that's broken as spoken by the Prophet Daniel.

oh wait, i forget - excubitor will never get a chance to see this. oh well, regarding ignore lists ~ the LORD is an open door & so shall i follow His example; no one will ever be on my ignore list.......come to think of it, i'm not sure how that works anyway.

Brother:

If you keep up the ignore list, you finally will have this function : [blank screen]

Unsubscribing from the forum is the ultimate ignore list.

....to put one on your ignore list is ok, but to announce it to everybody seems a bit controlling and manipulative....don't you think?

Why would he care about manipulating others when he feels that it is his Christian Duty to throw verbal stones at other posters? Nope, I don't have him on my ignore list, it is just as easy to skip his posts. Ex thinks he is representing Christ...right...he is representing a building. Catholics invests in material things and Christ invests time in human beings. Ex showed me this truth....

Take some time and show some kindness to someone this Christmas...say something nice...be an encouragement....post a caring word...But oops forgot, ex can't perform this Christian duty, after-all he has got everyone on his ignore list.

Gods Blessings,

Al

Sorry. Double post

Why only with Christmas?
Christmas every day.

I like your spirit.

It is better to tame the tongue rather than spew it's venom and by putting someone on ignore is a way to tame the tongue.

But I do not agree with listing in one's siggy the people they have on ignore....

Excubitor :

I ran across this art diagram.


And I think it explains things well. You under the big top circus club act. And the
breath of that lion, is easier to deal with than the roar of the crowd ! ( ha )







[trying to make you laugh]

note:

I had to change photos, the other head in mouth of lion was a copyright !

Oh, well . . . . this gets the point across >

No.


All false. I find nothing which makes believe that the RCC is deceived or false in its teachings. Nor do I believe in any slight way that I am denying Christ. Indeed I am upholding him because I believe the RCC and the Eastern Orthodox religions are the visible church of Christ and as such are his body. The term "Popery" is a term of scorn and derision. If protestants were truly correct they would not need to resort to defamation and labels. The arguments would stand on their own merits. Nor do I find any indication that the RCC has man made traditions. I believe that what we see are God made traditions handed down faithfully from the apostles and the New Testament church. As I have repeatedly borne out the teachings of the church not only agree without contradiction with the scriptures but also with the ancient writings of the fathers of the church. This goes to prove that the traditions are not man-made but are firmly based upon the foundation of the apostles.

The antichrist is an end of days personality and cannot be prescribed to 2000 years of popes. The prophecy of daniel also proves that the foundation of the antichrist is toes part iron and part clay which the Lord himself shall strike in that last day. The dominion of the popes however can be traced back in unbroken succession to the apostles and indeed to Peter himself, proving that the church is founded upon an unshakeable foundation.


By some strange twist of fate you are not yet on my Ignore List however that is bound to change very soon.

hi~

there is no twist nor fate, but the will of the most Holy & you know well that i am in Him & He in me. it has taken me a long moment to consider my words & at the last i shall speak, by the will of the LORD ~ thus & thus shall i speak.

it is written in 1 John 4:2 - 9 (akjv)

4:2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: 3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. 4 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. 5 They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. 6 We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error. 7 Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. 8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. 9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.

now go forth & choose, excubitor - if your soul is as darkness & not right with the LORD & believe not in the Word that is posted & underlined above, then put me on your "ignore" list. on the right hand, if you believe with all your soul that you are right with the LORD & believe on Him & His Word, then do not put me on your "ignore" list & more-so out of grace through mercy, remove all they that you have placed on your "ignore" list from the debate thread & never utter "ignore list" in any of your posts ever again; from this moment forward, work diligently with me to establish peace. the reality of the matter at hand is this - all of us, great & small are held in bondage by the fallen angels until the return of the most Holy - we are brethren & we are sinners that need the LORD, now more-so than ever since the times are darkening, but by His grace are we delivered.

if the LORD walked among us, would we strife before Him? no, of course not.......then why should now be any different when His Word is before us, which is God as written in the Gospel According to St. John? no, there is no difference. & you know something? i have said truth many times over & i have told you nothing but the truth as written in the scriptures, it's old now & more-so the same cycle pattern keeps churning. are you a broken record? if not, then consider these words.......as such, i'm ending it in peace; my faith stands by the Word & from the Word shall all matters weigh against & if given a choice to continue stating what i already stated many times over or walk away to sit on a hill & read more of the Word, i choose the latter.

hopefully, you'll make the move worthy of the LORD God in heaven.

Hebrews 13




1 Continue to love each other with true Christian love.

2 Don't forget to show hospitality to strangers, for some who have done this have entertained angels without realizing it!

3 Don't forget about those in prison. Suffer with them as though you were there yourself. Share the sorrow of those being mistreated, as though you feel their pain in your own bodies.

Hi excubitor
I feel that I really should apologise for ranting at you in a couple of threads.... the first was about contraception and the second about the Catholic church. I am really sorry and I hope that you haven't stuck me on ignore or you'd miss this apology.
I truely wish you all the best and pray that the Lord blesses you richly.

I never used ignore list at all. I don't feel like the need to use it. The only thing what i hate most is the spam emails such is quite annoying.

By chance I clicked on View Post and saw your gracious apology which I accept with joy. I have gladly taken you off my Ignore List.

If everyone puts everyone on their ignore list, we will have soooo much more time for prayer!

I'm sorry. I view this thread started by ex as a form of manipulation. What ex is saying/threatening is this; don't disagree with him unless you want to be placed on his ignore list. I suppose that is how the Catholic church does business, they want boys/girls, men/women who will always obey and never question. To question is never to think for yourself.

I believe Catholics are a part of our Christian family as long as they believe in Jesus Christ!

Gods Blessings,

Al

I didn't feel manipulated Al... I just feel that although I disagree with excubitor on some issues, I should do this in love. I feel that my conscience is clear now. I don't usually rant and I felt uncomfortable in the way I had approached this.
