I had a thicker version I used as a cradle for stuff when I went out camping. Depending what you put in there, you could have lots. I suggest no poky things.

How long should we suffer a person?

Reading 2 Tim 2:14, 23-24 this morning made me think:

"14 Remind the people of these facts, and solemnly charge them in the presence of God to avoid petty controversy over words, which does no good, and ruins those who listen."

"23 But have nothing to do with foolish and ignorant speculations, since you know that they produce strife and give birth to quarrels. 24 The servant of the Lord must not participate in quarrels, but must be kind to everyone, skilled in teaching, patient and tolerant when wronged."

It is imperative that we show the fruit of the Spirit within us in all aspects of life as it shows our maturity. But that mean that we have to suffer a person indefinitely?

How long should we impress on someone that they need to change before walking away and dusting our sandals off, so to speak?

Do you have a measure that you personally use and would like to share; like the number of occurrences you spoke with the person on the matter or the person's general teachability or their age or the level of sin caused by their view, etc.?

Scripture says to speak to the offender in private. Then if he does not listen, take a witness or two, then if that doesnt work , the whole congregation. If all that fails, he is to be shunned.

I think how long should probably be based a lot on how long you would want somebody to be patient with you if the situation was reversed. Are we willing to give sacrificially in the situation, knowing that Father sees it and knows what's going on? A lot might also depend on whether there's actual harm taking place. If there's harm taking place, then I would say you probably have to deal with it quickly. If it's just an annoyance, can we be patient?

Proverbs 17:15, “He who justifies the wicked and he who condemns the righteous, Both of them alike are an abomination to the LORD.” This may be where the saying “Don’t condemn in others what you condone in your own,” began. Too often we hear someone try to justify a crime because of a past occurrence or denounce a good person’s action with gossip. What is determined as good or evil has been established by our Creator and mankind does not have the authority to change His word.

Any Torah follower Midwives in MN? Hopefully near the twin cities. My Husband and I are looking for one that will take us that will not require us to do any sort of blood work, or testing. We are due in September and we are having a hard time finding a midwife.

Some irritating yes-or-no questions from a survey by Dr. Ben Carson:

"Do you believe that Religious Liberty is an important cornerstone to American society and must be upheld and protected?"

"Should Americans have the right to decline to provide or offer services that violate or contradict their religious convictions?"

"Should Americans holding to faith-based values, and who wish to conduct their lives according to their faith, be targets for political activists to be dragged through the legal system?"

Thankfully these did not require an answer for the survey to be submitted.

There are plenty of faith-based religious convictions that should be illegal to follow, such as human sacrifice.
Especially in this age we must be specific in our terms: the law of Yahweh must rule, and not be ruled over. This is the only moral basis for judging whether false moral convictions should be merely rebuked ("religious freedom"), or if further intervening is justly necessary (biblical criminal law).

Comment

I totally agree with you on "faith-based religious convictions that should be illegal to follow".

In an attempt to "protect" our own liberties, we might be inadvertendly playing into the hands of the enemy and giving our approval for their practices as well.

We must be very careful not to interpret such questions from purely our point of view even if the questioner professes to be a Christian as "Religious Liberty" is a very big net. The same data can be used by the opposition and then empower all forms of Satanism as well.
