To all Neal haters! - Page 3

Joeboo79, these "fighting fundamental forums" are a haven for many X-IFBs, people who blew it under good men like Dr. Neal and are filled with hate and bitterness, even as one person in this thread said that he hated the man.

These folks rally around each other on here, usually supporting the same people, but nearly always attacking the same men of God. By the way, so far, I haven't seen one of them use the respectful expression, "man of God," in their posts. But maybe I've missed some of them. They probably used that term for men like Piper, Pink, and Warren.

Dr. Neal has a great ministry and is helping change lives and his two sons have great ministries too. Dr. Neal had a great hand in helping me live for the Lord. Some things he has done ticked me off really bad but I got over it and realized it's stupid to get mad over it.
Mark has really got under my skin some times but I still love him like a brother and am thankful for his friendship.
Maybe if you guys would realize where here fighting the same fight and life is short you will focus on the right things.

I am going to have to agree and disagree with you. I do agree there are a lot of people on this site that have "bitterness" issues. But at the same time there are people on here that have a legit point. Not all people that come on here are angry people, I am not, even though I can be angry at sin which does occur in matters such as these. I am someone who has experienced the pain of major disappointment in a church that I had faith in, as well as many other "good, non bitter, ex-members", many of these ex-members were literally pushed out of the church. I do not agree with the teachings of those men such as Piper, Warren. But you can not simply dismiss the facts that cast a dark shroud around a church, there are some major issues in the church that if you are or were a member you would understand. But for someone who was never a member and does not know much of what goes on but merely listens to messages and looks at the internet site, can not cast judgment for or against this matter.

Well, at least you're right, where you agreed with me.

loyalty to a man blinds a person to things that go on around him, both with people who hate a person and ones who defend. People just need to study the cold hard facts

But people who know nothing of the matter except hearsay need to stay out of the matter, hence that would result in a lot less posts under BEREAN BAPTiST COLLEGE

Sad to say, these X-IFBs are loyal to nothing ... not the Lord, not to a man ... nothing. They're full of rebellion against authority, and they bitterly resent anyone who is in submission to authority or who resembles the authority that they resent.

I agree with you, hence like I said before there should be less posts on here, but IFB churches and Pastor's still fall into sin

Wow, you couldn't be more wrong if you went to a diploma mill and bought a doctorate. Many of the people I have talked to on here are not X-IFBs, but X-IFBXers and they are very loyal, to God. The rebellion is not against authority, but against those who are self proclaimed "men of God" and then try to usurp His authority and the authority of the Scriptures to take it as their own.

From the tone of your posts, it's obvious which side of the aisle you sit on and I'm sorry.

Funnomore, exactly...hence the last part of my statement IFB churches and pastors fall into sin, this is the case with Berean, and its sad because they think they are on the right track.

You have a little bit of "tone" yourself.

This is not the case with Berean.

Dr. Neal hasn't fall into sin. He's just fallen out with some rebels. That's all.
