Re: ...and JESUS said to Peter "you are".....a certain type of person that is a "HINDRANCE"/stumbling block to me......

beej,

I don't understand your last post to me. I was always under the impression that you have God in your life and that you also understand the necessity that everyone should have God in their life.

I don't chant to Him (pray) nor do I patronize, flatter/compliment or beg/request that He do good. I don't dance for Him or amuse or offer Him entertainment as a jester or village idiot with active worship, but I do acknowledge Him in truth. Is it that you misunderstand my intentions and motives?

Actually, "I" took the first clumsy step in childhood and then HE guided me the rest of THE WAY.
