I heard an exposition on this not too long ago. Who are the swine and dogs Jesus is referring to? <BR/><BR/>Not unbelievers because they do not care enough to turn on you and trample you. Ironically, it has been suggested Jesus was referring to those who pervert and twist the gospel for personal gain. Hypocrites.<BR/><BR/>If you look at the flow of Matthew 5-7 Jesus is teaching to His followers. In Mattew 6 He is comparing how they should be as compared to the hypocritical Pharisees who have been their models. <BR/><BR/>As in Matthew 7 we see, Not everyone who says, Lord Lord is actually saved. This is hard teaching and should give everyone pause to work out their salvation with fear and trembling. And to only follow Christ...not men. And to NEVER sign a loyalty to pledge to a church or a person.Linhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04723395060585207854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36564514.post-81045924555709838422007-10-06T19:21:00.000-05:002007-10-06T19:21:00.000-05:00Karen, Heard the letter was right on the mark!Than...Karen,<BR/> Heard the letter was right on the mark!<BR/>Thanks once again to the writer for sharing his/her heart and shedding light.gmommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11713588262748876624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36564514.post-46951003572463830882007-10-06T18:55:00.000-05:002007-10-06T18:55:00.000-05:00Karen, I received the letter yesterday.

And I think Jesus probably has a pretty strong opinion on someone talking about His bride in such language. Just a hunch.<BR/><BR/>I don't care how much you disagree with a brother or sister in Christ on an issue, you are accountable to God for your interaction with that person. Jesus said people will recognize His disciples by the love they have for one another. That doesn't mean we will always agree on everything, but to start calling your brothers and sisters "swine" is appalling, and if you think that the Lord is pleased with your assessment, you need to get off the blog and into the Word.socworkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04927251130694709619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36564514.post-4675692297042693642007-10-06T13:05:00.000-05:002007-10-06T13:05:00.000-05:00SOTL said.."When the motion was made to have quart...SOTL said..<BR/>"When the motion was made to have quarterly business meetings and to adopt the SBC's June 2002 resolution on the sexual integrity of ministers one of their pre-planned plants, Mr Angel, made the motion to adjourn."<BR/><BR/>For SOME REASON, the administration did NOT want that resolution passed.

So if you want me to keep reminding people of how incompetent he is...keep it up:<BR/><BR/>1. Trespassing on private property in a gated community and climbing over the "itty-bitty" 41" fence, then trying to liken it to an EE visit. Sr Pastor, Steve Gaines, then Assoc Pastor Mark Dougharty, Chuck Taylor and John Caldwell.<BR/><BR/>2. Refusing to be transparent in the financial matters of the church<BR/><BR/>3. Refusing to allow members a membership directory, copies of by-laws, copies of minutes of Board meetings..oh, I forgot, no minutes, no business to discuss, just more evidence that a few corrupt men are handling all the church business as they choose and are accountable to NO ONE!<BR/><BR/>4. Sr Pastor, Steve Gaines, Calling a deacon "Hez" after he and his 3 co-conspirators trespassed on the deacons property.<BR/><BR/>5. Sr Pastor, Steve Gaines, using the church credit card for personal expenses, and standing before the church on a Wed night and lying about EVER using the church credit card for personal use. <BR/><BR/>6. Sr Pastor, Steve Gaines refusing to abide by Matt 18.<BR/><BR/>7. Sr Pastor, Steve Gaines, saying he doesn't preach on Wed nights, needs time with his family..TRUTH..HE HAS HAD SEVERAL SPEAKING ENGAGEMENTS AWAY FROM BELLEVUE ON WED NIGHTS FOR EXTRA $$$$ AND SEVERAL WERE CANCELLED WHEN THE WORLD FOUND OUT ABOUT HIS HARBORING A PEDOPHILE MINISTER ON STAFF FOR 6 MONTHS AFTER THE PEDOPHILE MINISTER CONFESSED TO STEVE GAINES AND STEVE GAINES DID NOTHING ABOUT IT, UNTIL THE VICTIM CALLED HIS HAND ON IT!<BR/><BR/>8. Steve Gaines, Sr Pastor of Bellevue Baptist Church harboring a confessed pedophile minister for 6 months, allowing him to roam the halls of Bellevue Baptist Church and saying "it is under the blood". Steve Gaines only revealing the information when the victim, the son of the pedophile, came to Steve Gaines wanting to know how he could allow him to remain in his position. If not for this brave young man, would PW still be roaming the halls of Bellevue Baptist Church??<BR/><BR/>9. Steve Gaines bragging to his Gardendale congregation how he "told them everything that is wrong with Bellevue", talking to Union in Jackson bragging about the "information meeting, no discussions" and that he didn't just fall off a cabbage truck!<BR/><BR/>10. The joke of a monkey-business meeting. The pre-planned motion to adjourn..because of their concern of children staying in the nursery so long and the nursery workers, what a joke!! When the motion was made to have quarterly business meetings and to adopt the SBC's June 2002 resolution on the sexual integrity of ministers one of their pre-planned plants, Mr Angel, made the motion to adjourn. Them bragging about shutting down the mic's. They saw the victim approaching a mic to be addressed and shut down the mic and had the audacity to brag about it!<BR/><BR/>11. They are concerned about the nursery workers, who were paid help for the monkey business meeting, and the children being in the nursery for maybe an additional 10-15 minutes, long enough to vote on adopting the SBC's resolution on the sexual integrity of ministers and having quarterly business meetings...BUT, STEVE GAINES was NOT concerned about allowing a confessed pedophile roam the halls, exposed to children, anytime he would desire to be, for 6 MONTHS AFTER THE PEDOPHILE CONFESSED TO STEVE GAINES!!!!!!! <BR/><BR/>12:Fired a 70 y/o nursery worker after 53 years of faithful, dedicated service to the church.sickofthelieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05746279905491875721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36564514.post-29682221409598736962007-10-06T11:58:00.000-05:002007-10-06T11:58:00.000-05:00fog, Sara and Ron Jerkins have been on Bellevue s...fog,<BR/> Sara and Ron Jerkins have been on Bellevue staff for several years.
