- WL smeared the reputation of Ingalls et. al.
"These things, my brothers, ought not to be so." -- James 3.10
Amen, brother James! Lord, be merciful to us all. |
Pardon me, but it appears that this thread has deteriorated to the smoke and mirrors kind of maneuverings most often seen with lawyers and certain prominent politicians who point out, “it depends on what the definition of ‘is’ is.”
How about letting the Word of God speak to us instead of our trying to manipulate it?
If there were to be a forum for those whose ancestors were abused by Martin Luther or by Darby, let those persons speak. But don’t shoot them down because of what they are sharing just for the sake of argument and on the false pretense of “presenting a balanced view.” Let the truth be stated.
