Dying for something is the easy way out... - Seventh-day Adventists' Leading Forum

Welcome with open arms fellow believers who don’t see things the way you do.
And don’t jump all over them every time they do or say something you don’t agree with
– even when it seems that they are strong on opinions but weak in the faith department.
Remember, they have their own history to deal with. Treat them gently. Romans 14.1: The Message

Tom Wetmore Latitudinarian Registered: 2000-06-21 Posts: 4605 Loc: Silver Spring, MD, USA	We too often think in terms of the truly important as being something worth dying for. But what would be so important to you that you would do absolutely anything to stay alive for? _________________________ "Absurdity reigns and confusion makes it look good." "Sinless perfection is such a shallow goal." "I love God only as much as the person I love the least." *Forgiveness is always good news. And that is the gospel truth. (And finally, the ideas expressed above are solely my person views and not that of any organization with which I am associated.)

He that feareth is not made perfect in love. Joh 14:27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

But it would be worth it I suppose... _________________________ "Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much." - Oscar Wilde “Do to others whatever you would like them to do to you.
