He used to check other posters out by getting them to post, "Jesus Christ is come in the flesh". If they wrote, "Jesus Christ is come in the fles", he would say, "There ya go, another one with an evil spirit!"

Just as the clock on the top of the Anglican church in Sidmouth, South Devon, England says, "It is time to seek the Lord".

“It is sorrow for the offence rather than for the punishment. God’s law has been infringed, and his love abused. This melts the soul in tears. A man may be sorry, yet not repent, just as a thief is sorry when he is captured – not because he has stolen, but because he has to pay the penalty. Hypocrites grieve only for the bitter consequence of sin. I have read of a fountain that only flows on the evening before a famine. Likewise their eyes never pour out tears except when God’s judgments are approaching. Pharaoh was more troubled for the frogs and river of blood than for his sin. Godly sorrow, however, is chiefly for the trespass against God, so that even if there were no conscience to strike, no devil to accuse, no hell to punish, yet the soul would still be grieved because of the prejudice done to God. “My sin is ever before me” (Psa 51.3); David does not say, “The sword threatened is ever before me,” but “my sin.” O that I should offend so good a God, that I should grieve my Comforter! This breaks my heart!”
(Th. Watson)

John I will let you contemplate Romans 1::18 and the fact the Lord looked on the room of religious crowd in anger (Nark 3:5) to see if all anger is wrong.

Anyway, how's it going brother. You enjoying the convo? You like supporting an ungodly nominal Christian who let off plenty of steam on Facebook without any biblical warrant; nor would she seek any biblical warrant, not being scripturally minded.

Well said, John.

Regarding what you said about Facebook, it seems Facebook and women go together perfectly. Especially women with very little to do, who get bored and need some entertainment. I won't go further down that road, but leave it up to the imagination.

Regarding this particular woman, if she is a career woman, then as we said right at the start, she has shot herself in the foot. Her career is in tatters, her record will go against her regarding possible future appointments.

Last I knew it’s good to be angry at sin

Why are you relying on women to preach the gospel? Are you a Joyce Meyer fan? What advice would you give to Joyce? Cease your prattling, woman, and obey the Lord? Get your doctrine straight and stop playing the Jezebel? Get off that platform and leave your TV shows? Could you get angry at those sorts of sins?

And your point is?
Our sisters in Christ should not speak against wickedness? Chapter and verse please

So what was the point of bringing John Baptist to the table?

There is something to be said about fighting your battles behind the mask of online courage and anonymity. We all have a tremendous amount of courage online to be "the man", as it were, but most of us wouldn't say half the things we do if it were in person.

Indeed, Brother John. Fishing is a relaxing outing that focuses one's mind on the Lord's creation...

Yup in the John UK and Watcher world John the Baptist should have kept his mouth shut. It landed him in jail and eventually cost him his life. It stopped a thriving ministry in the wilderness. That’s the Biblical model don’t say anything about evil practices because it might have negative consequences.

Thank you for your points, very helpful.
