If we were all alike, it would be a very dull world. And I try to make it a point to always default to the side of grace, unless I’m pushed bad, then I sometimes lose my grace[:I]
I’ve got no bad feelings for MD at all. Sometimes a nuisance, but always good entertainment, and I kind of like my Swamp Worshiper title 
His opinion is as valid as mine, even if I don’t agree.

I have always said the Moonshine and Popcorn crowd is the only place anyone will find true forgiveness and Grace. Given, we might be rolling around on the ground laughing alot about who has the stinkiest farts, but we are real easy to get along with…

I found this most interesting do to prior discussions regarding when one has accepted Jesus as the Lord and Savior but continues to sin, even sometimes willfully. This passage addresses this, but looked at only in isolation will render a different interpretation than if one knows the whole scripture. Again, the point is Bible verses are useful, but can be used to manipulate the total body of work of the Bible. You have to read it all, or you’ll be susceptible to misinformation. Just another example:

All noted and agreed. That’s why it is great to be a Christian, Jesus has you covered just in case you can not comply.
