       have never wrapped my head around in the eight years that I have
       been  "doing" Christian Forums.    :-\   :P   ::)  ???  :'(  :o

       I wonder if they're obeying the Golden Rule?   Maybe they want
       me to stop posting, and so they're doing what they want me to
       do.

       I think most of us can answer each of your questions and get
       pretty close to the truth.
       Also relative to another oft asked question .....don't you think
       that when we consider the full range of the 'Body of Christ' we
       should consider that those who bring nothing to the table but
       come to pick up for themselves such scraps as fall to the floor
       are nevertheless still members of that 'Body'.
       Sometimes (but not always) those who strive to 'minister' are so
       wrapped up with their ministry that they are not of a fit mind
       to receive the ministry of others.
       It takes all sorts to make up the 'Body of Christ' and the
       scriptures tell us to bestow greater honour on the lesser
       vessels.
       But I hear what is often said and such PoV's are also from
       important parts of the 'Body', so I guess they fall into the
       category of "exhorting one
       another".
