As you have been wont to demand in other threads, where is your scriptural support for the assertion that "every believer should be involved in some for of ministry"?

It concerns me that the propagation of unconfessional ideas has been disciplined and stifled so vigorously in other forums on this board, but when believers try to unconfessionally yoke other believers on matters of music, alcohol, literature, and this sort of thing, we have to tolerate it.
Steady, Davidius. For one thing, the phrase "as you have been wont to demand in other threads" is misleading. Yoda has posted 11 times at this point. Most of those have not been theological. Twice he asked questions.

Secondly, you are imputing motives that Pergy specifically addressed in his second post.

Third, remember, this is a discussion board. People bring up legitimate questions and they get addressed. The moderators do watch that things are not "propagated", but we don't shut down discussion over every statement brought up in apparent good faith, even if it seems to be unconfessional. Otherwise, there would be very little discussion.
