[quote="Full Quiver"]It matters when the only souls that some local churches see "saved" are those on their own rolls and watch that backslid just months earlier. That was my point and that stuff certainly happened in TCoG in TN. I know some folks that would "pray through" several times a year. Now each time represented a soul saved on a report. A good ministry would not see this happening but rather would have strong Christians and not all these backsliders. Just think about youth camp. The same kids getting saved every year. :wink:

You want to do something for the kingdom, read and practice Ephesians 4. Equip those that are saved to do the work of the ministry instead of allowing church to be so dry they wither away and die. Sometimes I wonder who is lost, the backslider or their pastor.[/quote]


18:21
Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?

18:22
Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.


I thank God it is not man we will have to answer to one day but our Heavenly Father, those that hold on to Antimosity(ill will or resentment tending toward active hostility ) will never have total Victory and peace to go on and do what God has for them. I don't think there is one person that has ever posted that has never been hurt in someway rather it is from a loved one, church member /pastor but if we are to live like Christ then we have to stop trying to find negative and hurtful words to make ourselves feel better.........Those that have to always find fault in others need to look within themselves first.
