I guess I need to respond in kind...

My interpretation is correct. I stand by it. No matter what "Baptist Doctrine" teaches. Too bad so many of you are following the "party line". I've stated my belief and the Scriptural support. If you disagree with me, you can. So in fairness, I believe you are in error, but, no matter. I know I won't change your minds and I don't fee threatened by your disagreement. The gifts I've received from the Lord came from the Lord. I didn't get them from you, so you can't take them away. I will say that "George" is better to communicate with. I don't mind my "disagreements" with him. He doesn't seem to be hiding behind "cliches".
