Someone should explain...

Re: Someone should explain...
My guess: The pastor is talking about self-restraint. Don't go with your first reaction - possibly violent, loud, and/or offensive - when confronted with something or someone you don't like.
But I could be wrong. That has nothing to do with "forgiveness." You could restrain yourself and still be unforgiving.
You should call the pastor and ask him (or her), "WTF?"
Let me know how s/he responds.

Someone should consider the source
Okay... There's all kinds of things wrong with what you just said.
PSALM 81:13, MAYBE?
"But as for me, Jehovah, I cry unto thee, and in the morning my prayer cometh before thee." Loosely translated, of course.
“In a world whose absurdity appears to be so impenetrable, we simply must reach a greater degree of understanding among us, a greater sincerity.”
Re: Someone should explain...
It means that rather than launching an ugly barrage of critical sputum when someone you know makes a mistake, you should be humble and swallow your words.

Yes.
But SOMEONE should have recognized the existence of an alternate connotation before putting it on a church sign.

I'm sure they were well aware of it, and that the double entendre would draw a lot of attention.
GAH!

For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts
Re: Someone should explain...
I suspect that is correct....I'm sure they were well aware of it, and that the double entendre would draw a lot of attention.
Re: Someone should explain...
Indeed. You are now suspect.
See how that works?
Dang! And I thought that was clever... Fuck me pink~

All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.
