OPEN LETTER TO THE LIST;

I have often wondered why I stayed on this list as long as I have. I am
considering leaving. I to know about judgements that condemn to the heart,
then start the questions. I have seen many attacked, that did not need to
be. I have been attacked for the jokes that I have sent, and I have showed
them all to my Pastor. I think that I am seeing the same old same old
starting again.

The "I am better than you, because I look better on the outside" or the "I
am better than you, because I am more deeply committed to God than you". I
just hope to make it, I spent the first 15 years of my walk trying to get
accepted, I spent 3 years hating everything about God, and the Church, and I
have spent the last 2 years, concerned with getting my family and myself to
heaven. If along the way I help, or minister, or give knowledge, then PRAISE
the LORD.

Brother Tyler, I for one thought 90% of you jokes where great, the ones that
bothered me, met my delete key :). I dont know at this time what I am going
to do, but if the attacking continues, I for one have a real world out here
in Washington State. The Devil is real and he's hunting for souls. I can get
all the hate, anger, murder, rape, lust, put downs, I am better that you,
put of the newspaper, off the radio, and in person. I really don't need to
see bothers and sisters go after one another. It grieves my soul. If I have
been one of those then, I am as guilty as anyone else.

I wish we could agree to disagree. I don't see anything wrong with debate. I
don't see anything wrong with heated discussion. It is when it gets
personal. I have not doubt about Brother Tyler's salvation. He is the one
that either doubts or not. What I see from him and the others that are in
leadership, tells me that they follow W.W.J.D, a lot more than most of us
would believe.
