Ellen,
Obviously we are dealing with a post where Greg and Dawn areattempting to communicate with the forum and admitted they believe in theLunar Sabbath. David isn't attempting to communicate on my forum, but G & D are. For you to post on their behalf isn't much different than them posting.
Unlike you and other false accusers/slanderers on Greg's forumclaim, I am following Torah and I'm not walking in fear. I don't fear "opendebate" when I have time to engage in "open debate." But I don't have to let the forum be a ranting roost and outreach mechanism for a false doctrine that causes confusion and leads people into Sabbath breaking. I also don't allow people to teach against the use of the sacred names, or teach that theTorah has been abolished. These are the forum guidelines. The fact that I don't allow those things has nothing to do with me being afraid ofChristians.
If someone came on the forum and taught that adultery was okay as long as a man wore a contraceptive, and people began believing it and started committing adultery against their wives, the fact that I might not allow a person to promote that doctrine would not mean that I'm walking in fear. I believe I would be walking in love for my fellow man. I believe Sabbath breaking to be even more serious offense than committing adultery because it has to do with loving Yahweh, the first and greatest commandment. My desire is that men would keep the commandments of Yahweh and I desire to teach men to do so. I am doing these things because I love Yahweh and want to keep His commandments, as well as teach men so. Loving Yahweh is not breaking Torah. Loving Yahweh is keeping Torah. Therefore, you are incorrectwhen you say I'm not following Torah. It is Lunar Sabbatarians that are not following Torah, and they desire to teach men so. Why should I have to pay the bill for them to do it?
Also, I again ask that you please remove our family from yourforwarding lists. Forwarding lists are a good way for spammers to get ouremail addresses, and some forwards will inevitably contain material that Iconsider to be inappropriate for our family. If we get another forward, I'll have to block your emails at the server level...and I don't necessarily want to do that.
Thanks, EliYah
