Re: Distinguishing Mountains from Molehills
Those I believe we should turn the other cheek when they persecute us. But at the point of them killing me, which I have not experienced just only by their words, I suspect I would defend myself and am quite sure I would defend others around me from being killed also. I would try not, in this defen...

Re: Pilgrim Mennonite Conference current events
As an aside, I find it really annoying how plain people refer to a “Junior” as if we’re all supposed to know who that is. I have literally been asked, “Do you know Junior?” Junior who? I provably know 50 “Juniors”. Be glad you're not Amish and trying to figure out who Butter Davie's John's Sam Amos...

Re: Distinguishing Mountains from Molehills
If I understand you correctly, your and my understanding of who is our neighbour is quite different. Those who killed for what they deemed to be a greater cause in war was not killing their neighbour, imo. Those verses you used I would not apply them to all people in wars as many have no real hatre...

Re: Political office
So delivering the mail is now tantamount to dropping the atomic bomb? Not at all. Maybe re-read my post, I suggested nothing of the sort. I was simply referring to your implied argument / line of thought in your response to KenSylvania. Nothing more. Consequently it is up to the public (through the...

Re: Political office
As far as working for the post office - I don't think I could feel that I am pleasing Jesus by delivering porn or other ungodly things into peoples' mailboxes. Or critical medications for shut-ins? Coming into this a bit behind the ball, but Ken, your comments to KenSylvania rings suspiciously like...

Re: Poll: Who will win 2024 Presidency?

Re: Where are the Anabaptists in the UK?
I love the channel Ready to Harvest. This was a neat and thorough video looking at the very very small number of anabaptist church groups in the UK today. https://youtu.be/BJoTjDCAUDk?feature=shared I have long been under the impression that there have never been large numbers of Anabaptist Christi...
