And while those things are indeed true, it is also true that I may have been having a small break at the time that I wrote them.

So I will not presume to say that I was walking in the right attitude when I posted them.

That I am a persecuted pastor does not make me any less of a pastor.

(yes, persecution can be defined as when a person's ministry is brought into disrepute by those who want to put a stop to the gospel going forth in power: it happens when men speak all manner of evil against a minister falsely)
I have very little respect for men who give themselves titles, in Christ men refuse them its enough to be in Him, than to complain about being persecuted just makes it all the more clear, justifying ones self...

I am certainly not giving myself a title...and I am certainly not justifying myself.

I am justified through faith in the blood of Jesus Christ and do not need to justify myself for anything.

I do believe that I was having a small break when I wrote that post...so for @Chritsophany to dredge it up was typical of his normal attacks on me...if there is anything that he might be able to use against me, he is of the sort that would use it against me.

Even as it is written,

Tit 2:7, In all things shewing thyself a pattern of good works: in doctrine shewing uncorruptness, gravity, sincerity,
Tit 2:8, Sound speech, that cannot be condemned; that he that is of the contrary part may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say of you.

This scripture shows that the enemies of the Lord desire to have something evil to say of those who minister the truth.

And I do not doubt that my post in question provides such an opportunity because I was not in my right mind when I posted it (The year of discrimination.).

You preach against the reality of 1 John 1:8...

You have the same issue as a lot of deceived people.
Its that you lived in commentaries for too long, and you became lost in it.
So, had you instead studied the NT more, then you would understand that had you just read a litter farther in 1 John, he would have told you that the born again do not sin.

So, your verse, has no context, because you have no context when you use it, incorrectly to try to deceive people with your legalism.

()

Where is your church?
I know where it is..
Its in your imagination.

Trust me.... God does not call anyone to pretend they are the pastor of a christian forum.

You need a bit of help, i think, as you are caught up in something odd related to your ego and your spiritual darkness that is playing itself out in your fantasy world, justbyfaith.

1 John 1:8 is not in contradiction to verses that say we do not sin as the born again.

We do not have to sin as believers because the element of sin, while it dwells within us, has been rendered dead if we have received the second benefit (2 Corinthians 1:15) of entire sanctification.

You teach that sin no longer dwells in us...therefore you are deceiving yourself and the truth is not in you (1 John 1:8).

The fact that sin dwells in us does not contradict 1 John 3:9 and neither does it contradict 1 John 3:6 w/ 1 John 2:17...

For the element of sin can be rendered dead (Romans 6:6, Galatians 5:24, Romans 7:8) so that is no longer has any say over our behaviour (Romans 6:14).

Where is your church?

Here on these boards...it is composed of as many as see that the doctrines that I preach are biblical and who become born again or else edified through those doctrines.

For I do not only set forth the doctrines that I set forth expecting them to bear fruit...I pray that the doctrines that I set forth will bear fruit and bring people into the kingdom...

And therefore I believe that God, in answer to my prayers, has saved some people through the doctrines that I preach or else edified those already saved; so that they fall underneath the umbrella of my teaching on these boards and therefore I am their pastor in a sense.

While I regret even claiming to be a pastor in the post in question because it does not even matter to me if I have a flattering title.

I should have just continued to fulfill the role of pastor without claiming to have that position in the minds of people...because now there are those who desire to contest that position and it is resulting in persecution.

Oh well, hindsight is 20/20.

Nevertheless, I am blessed (Matthew 5:10-12).

This administration I will admit is the most anti-christian anti- God that I have ever scene in my lifetime and they will have the majority vote in the senate with VP Harris.

Bottom line is they were put there by God as per Romans 13.

I know that I have indeed filled the role of pastor here on these boards.

I don't need to have the flattering title of "pastor" applied to me or anything like that.

But I did what I did in order to humble @Behold; because he was taking over the boards with many of his posts at that time.
Humble advice...don't step into a position that you were not called to be. It's damaging to you and those you "pastor" ....and a pastor is one who has charge and responsibility to a congregation of believers and is held accountable to any sheep he may cause to fall away.
A very serious position and not to be abused by anyone in such authority.

You are a dreamer- they are anti-God, anti-christ. They oppose everything God stands for morally and ethically. They are by-passing the SC to enforce roe-wade into law all states and with discrimination regarding the lgbtq all business , schools,churches etc...... and removing the 503c exemption with churches. The state will finally have control over the church. No more separation. They are already making the first amendment meaningless with free speech by controlling both medias including social media.

Wake up and smell the coffee !

You don't think that the Holy Spirit has the power to convict them and draw them to Christ?

I am praying for a last days revival!

You would be wise to join with me in those prayers.

I feel that I have been unduly attacked by @Christophany here. He dredged up a post that I posted at a time when I may not have been in my right mind and sought to use it against me.

If I am a pastor here, it is because I fulfill that role in the lives of some people.

I do not need a flattering title of someone calling me "pastor".

But neither will I allow anyone to say that I do not fulfill the role of pastor on these boards; because that would be a lie.

I understand the responsibility of the role and I pray every day that every word that comes off of my keyboard might be from the Holy Ghost.
