As I said, I am unsubscribing.  I thought I was waiting to clear up the bit
about Bernard which I can do here.  In regard to those who have been put
away for adultery and then remarry, he wrote this:

*** In the case of marriage, I believe that means he should repent of any
wrong in the past and seek to make his present marriage work. At that point
God forgives him and recognizes the legal reality of the present marriage,
so that it is not considered adulterous.***

What the man is saying is that Jesus didn't mean this:

Matthew 5
32 But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for
the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever
shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.

Matthew 19
9 And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for
fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso
marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.

One of them is right...

I could go on about the marriage thingy, but it really would just be swept
under the rug anyway.  Seems no one wants to hear it anymore....

Anyway, I was waiting to be released from the obligation to Bro. Mike.  He
has done that today.  It is a sad day for me, but then, you will have those.
I am shaking the dust in regard to him.  My hands are clean.

I will be back sometime down the road to the same old arguments about hair
and beards and TV and.... all that (ahem) Menial Melangue (How's that?).

I am encouraged to see and hear people standing up and not in a mean fashon
but a firm one.

As for me, I have other foes and other conquests ahead in the Lord!

Later.
