I'm done ... you win! I can point you to hundreds of posts where they have "gotten off topic" from gluten. This happens to just one of them. I can't count the amount of times the last post in a 3 page thread has had NOTHING to do with the main topic, or even venture off course a bit. Nothing in this thread is any different. It just happens to be about...

I am having a mature conversation with adults that I happen to respect. There is no "ugliness" here. What else is off limits here?....... Abortion, politics, talking bad about communist China! How childish! Where is this healthy or right....... Are you a moderator on this forum?.....

I started this thread!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And you are telling me what I can and can't say. What kind of forum is this??????????

Purple ,,,,,I STAND CORRECTED!!!!!!!! The term communion IS in the bible, I did not select all versions on my search! But I did find some very interesting things. Out of the 19 versions of the bible that I found...4 use the term communion, 15 use blessing or thanks, in the scripture you referenced. Here they are I Corinthians 10:16 message version-the...

purple, I always reference back to the original language, Greek and Hebrew. This is where we can find the original word of God. I agree with you and your reference that the Bible can be lost in translation. This is why I referenced the original Greek for you. I agree with you on the idea that things can be lost in translation. I believe this is what has happened...

James tells us the same thing here in Chapter 2. Faith and Deeds 14What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save him? 15Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. 16If one of you says to him, "Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed," but does nothing about his physical needs...

Debmidge. I understand that you are concerned that "the laws of nature" will make me ill. If we were talking about "sneaking a little pizza and beer" now and then, I would absolutely agree with you. You also stated that you understand my faith. I am not totally sure that you do. If God asks us to do something. We should do it with faith that he will protect...

My Grandmother has been smoking since she was 12 years old. She is 80 and still mows her own yard with a push mower. No medical problems I know a man who was 42. Never smoke, never drank, ate right, and worked out daily. He died of cancer. I am going to smoke, drink rum, eat high fat red meats, lots of fruits and veggies, and take no medicines...

Purple, I have asked myself these questions before... I once believed as you did, I am not a cradle lutheran. I also would like you to know that I agree with you about not trying to convert each others beliefs or attack. I think that it is great that we can have discussions civilly about the Bible. I actually enjoy it! =) Here is what took me many years...

Msau22, read my "signature" at the bottom this page.....specifically the part about the "new test". That's all you need........ As far as feeling "alone" in this ...you aren't....how many members are on this board?????... u see my point. If you feel that people just "don't understand"...pardon my french .....**** em'! It's like this........I...

purple, I respect your opinion, but differ in mine. Yes, I believe that we are saved by grace through faith alone, in christ alone. But even though the Bible seems to put ALOT of weight on Baptism and confession/repentance also. This is how God "works" our salvation. Not by our "works" . But following the commandment of Christ. "... baptism now SAVES...

Demidge, ...I tell you the truth, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day

Hey all, just wanted to get a poll on all my DH'ers out there. How long, after an accidental gluten ingestion, does it take for your DH to start flaring up?

my church has 300 members, and yes my pastor knows about my "wheat allergy" , but I told him that I didn't want to be segregated apart from the rest of the church during communion. As far as not getting disease when I get older, etc... just a couple of FYI's 1. I am a paramedic, I know what smoking does to a person..... yet I smoke. So, I guess my...

I had a negative blood test. I suspect it was because I was gluten free for 3 months prior to the test. Therefore, no antibodies to gluten. Keep eating that gluten at least until you test, in order to get accurate results. My dr wanted me to go back on Gluten for 30 days to test again. NO WAY!!!! I am not going through a month of torture!!!! Just to conclude...
