Matthew, when are you going to stop being so acrid in your replies?

Tell me this, how do your caustic words bear witness to any degree of
being indwelt by Spirit let alone led by the Spirit to reply? You
_may_ occassionally best an opponent by your breadth of education, but
you repel all sensitive seekers. It is to your shame in the Lord that
such bitter tones come from your pen in defense of your denomination.

And returning to Aristotle brought in humanism in an even greater
degree to Catholic theological dogma. It forced a humanistic
understanding as to who man is as opposed to the Divine revelation of
Genesis. Western society is largely ruined because of Aristotlianism
presuppositions.

Nobody understands anything except you, Matthew. You have never
written a humble word since I began reading your posts. You are
abrasive at ever turn, stiffling others from participating. Many here
can verify emails which reported a desire to post, to ask questions,
but have no stomach for your hostile attacks.

You do not bear any evidence of having any personal experience of the
sweetness of Christ. There is no brokeness in you either your attitude
or your written word. Brokeness is an indicator of spiritual maturity
while brass is an indicator of worldliness. James declared that faith
without works is dead, those works being the fruit of the Spirit.
Sadly, I can remember no post of yours which in any way reflects the
temperance, pudence, hospitality, gentleness, etc which Paul counsels
Timothy to look for when selecting leaders in the local churches.

Others have commented from time to time about your hostility. Never
have I read a reply which evidenced any discipline of the Spirit in
your life. The discipline of the Spirit usually takes us by surprise.
Often, such discipline comes suddenly and without warning. I write
from experience. The spiritually mature are wounded in spirit when
admonished by others. And the more mature the man the more quickly
that man humbles himself and sorrows at the extent sin has stained of
his life. But, as I have said, never have your words ever bore
evidence such a spirit. You may know many a theological argument, but
you don't know the grace of God because you never extend it to any one
here.

Now your words can either prove me right or prove me wrong. Dare I
hope you will prove me wrong?
