I'd put him in the stocks. Then I'd tar and feather him and run him out of this town.

So you’d do nothing. As I expected.

You say you "eliminate" what you call "problems" or "divisions" in your congregation because you cast yourself as "spiritual muscle". What does this entail exactly?

Everything you don't understand.

Try reading first and second Timothy.

I don't have to worry about you showing up at my church.

We don't worship the same God.

I’d be too scared of your “spiritual muscle” duffing me up.

Why not give us an example of how you used your “spiritual muscle” to deal with the last incident in your church?

And we'll you should be.

I did it subtly with meekness.

Spiritual muscle plus meekness! LOL.

Are you a tough guy then?

I used to be.

But that's just silly. There's always someone tougher.

Were you ever a "tough guy"?

Are you not aware of the biblical mandate concerning church discipline?

If it's not done in meekness....it's likely one will fall.

Galatians 6:1
Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted.

I'll crack your nut, eventually.

Now you are just spiritually tough by praying to your version of God to "get me" as opposed to you "getting me" yourself?

I'm aware of meekness of course; but your question is just a bit of counter-measure bluster to deflect from your hubris about begin the "spiritual muscle" in your little church. Seeing what you are like in here with all your chest-puffing and blowhardiness, I'd say you are probably in your comfort zone as the bully beef "spiritual muscle" in your little group.

What does this mean?

Getting worried?
