I think Nick as a moderator needs a break (time out sometimes) one moderator for so many people must be pretty stressfull (other forums have more than one). Nick you remind me of my dad. A conversation with him is quite the same (Someone speaks, he questions sort of thing but he knows the answer:)
Short and sweet posts Nick such as yours are often better than really long ones especially for those who have short attenton spans:)

I agree with you,But my problem is when you say somone is wrong, and if they are wrong they are probably going to hell, He does nothing more than let the person drown.
The fact that you write anything makes a difference in someones life.
I must protest in regards to what is being written about Nick, he still has not given up on me in regards to the Sabbath, he brings it up now and again.
I love Nick, and many others on this board, even dear Stuart, BD is a hard one though. Many here have love and compassion towards one another, we are here to learn and understand. No one is by far a scholar of all, all are a scholar in some.
Even though the board can get a little rough at times, no one is here to hurt anyone and by no means see anyone perish.

I agree with you,But when one questions everything but cannot be questioned bc that one person has not expressed his view, than nothing should be said.
For example, the fact that your protesting to something that i have viewed.
the only position that Nick can take at this point is the the opposite. Becuase i cant even tell if he agrees or disagrees.
get what im saying.
Its not correct to give an opinion without expressing fully yours.
my second point about nick
if he actualy believes that im wrong,
than why doenst he do more than posting a phrase?
if i was his literal brother, would that be it?
get what im saying?
I love this guy very much, but he expresses to little to make any sense of him.
This thread should be posted elsewhere.
As for my opinion of Nick. He does his job as he sees fit and I see no reason for me to judge anther's servant. The forum remains dedicated to debate with little or no real derogatory attacks.
I do not call all personal attacks derogatory and consider those that the person believes are true and relevant to the discussion to be acceptable. Each of us has the choice to defend ourselves against such accusations.
If you believe an accusation is false then do not make it or apologize if you already did. If you believe it is not relevant then keep it to yourself.
Hi SimplyForgiven.
I find Nick says a few things to get people thinking thats all. Iv never felt hurt by Nick.

ya it should,but than again he makes so many comments, should we really waste our time answering, or just hold all his comments as invalid.
I agree with your last statment, but than again he says things are false yet… i have no explanation?
Hi Dennison,
I agree with your idea of helping out another brother in Christ.
I have had this same (sort of) conversation with Nick. I think instead of just saying, “the Lord is Spirit, read 1 Cor”, one should lead another to exactly what they are looking for, if possible. Including their own take on what those Scriptures say.I disagree with those who simply tell others to “do your own homework, read the Bible”. My opinion is, if you can possibly help, then help. In any way it takes.
I have answered your questions in the other thread and await your response.
Bottom line is: Everyone is different. How can you or I fault Nick or anyone else for the way they choose to do things. All are teachers here in one way or another, and Nick has led me to disown some “learned truths” that I was previously sure of. And he did it with his famous 5-word posts.
Hang in there, Dennison. We need another trinitarian around here to beat up on!
peace and love,
mikeI guess we can agree to disagree,
again im not condemning him,But if im asking for the help, would you jsut leave it at that?
thats the question
Here again another example.
How do you know that i didnt read my bible?
even thuogh i have it in front of me and been reading consistently, espeacially sinced i have joined the forum.Where is your conclusion based on?
How can you say my bible is dusty?
Are you telling me that in love?
And please note: I have asked many times if you love me? why have you not answered this question?
Jesus says, if you love me, feed my sheep.
im not faulting anyone, im asking for an explianation,
if anything, according to him who believe he is right, im at fault, so correct it.again, its the same pattern.
the only reason im responding is so that nick and post more and more and more, so ppl can understand the pattern.
if this pattern helps you, than so be it. but it does not help me.
Please do not call me a Trinitarian.
and neither am i a lukeworm.I am simply Christian, nothing more or less,
a follower of Christ.
SF, you will go through several stages of frustration with Nick. Many break down and go insane or are eventually thrown off this forum because of bad behavior, that I think Nick was the origin of. Consider him a test. He will ignore all questions you ask. He will speak in riddles. He will accuse you of things and ask questions of you, but won't answer yours. He is, a “moderator.” Perhaps most frustrating, he does not moderate.

Neither do i, your taking my points into a tangentim not trying to picture Nick as a menace,
I just disagree with the way he state points without giving clarity, and yet expects me to believe without a full expressed idea.
And when he mentiones claims, he doesnt really says why he states them, or how they connect.
He expects you to read them,
but he will not take step further from there.and than you questions your answers, and your next answer, is followed by another question.
get what im saying?
Mike
by the way which thread….?im been focused on this one to much and i totally forgot about the others.

Oh I know,Im not driven insane by him,
what drives me insane when others look at his posts as something valid.
and also the intention behind every post.It goes back to another point i make, should we really consider his arguements if they make no full expressions of any ideas, or any full claims that are tied into his arguement.
this thread is directed not to Nick but to those who are anti-trini,
Do you really consider his cliams to prove the anti-trini view?

and Kerwin to extend
I do believe this thread should be on here.Should those that disagree with the anti-trinitarian view should really spend there time argueing Nick?
Yet in many threads they validate his points?
I dont understand why?
Just because the one who argues with him gets no where.
its a forever cycle of questions.
should any of his point hold validation, if he does not extend?
How does an anti-trinitarian view his arguements, and should those who disagree really spend there time argueing back?
As in this is a forum of Scripture and Doctrine, shouldnt we extend our points and not just speculate,in other words not fully expressing ones ideas.
