This always happens.
It seems like we are seeing less and less posts removed for violations of posting rules, but occasionally we see that vacant spot with those troubling words "[Removed by Moderator Alpha]." I for one, and others I am sure, trust your judgment and see the absolute necessity of maintaining order and removing that which is offensive, but it seems that occasionally that which may be "relevant" may also be removed with the offensive material. Might I suggest therefore that rather than removing the entire post you might remove only "that which is offensive" and in violation of forum rules, as stated in your policy.
In the addendum to your posting rules the following is written:
"We reserve the right to censor other obviously inappropriate comments."
Would it not be possible for you remove the offending comments and then to simply place a notice such as:
"Inappropriate comment was removed by Moderator Alpha!"
This would define exactly what the offenders offense was, censoring the comment rather than censuring the person, which may be the impression left by an entire post being deleted, while at the same time allowing the flow of the discussion to remain uninterrupted by the occasional deletion of useful information.

Any chance you could give us just a little bit more room to write our posts? There's a lot to talk about as things move so fast in these last days.
Thanks, Sermon Audio.

Unfortunately, adhering to the 9th Commandment is not among them.
"Welcome to the Member Surveys section where SermonAudio members can anonymously post survey topics for visitors to the site! It's fun and easy way to quickly find out what others are thinking, saying, or doing!"

If you know anything about theology could you create some survey questions please.
There are so many subjects to look at.
There are marvelous sermons to listen to.
There is so much to learn.
Well done to all involved in keeping this website on the net,and Praise the Lord for His goodness and grace.

Should I start posting some of my devastating truths to give the Calv's something to do?
You said: "Shame on those 4 who would display such behavior. It is totally uncalled for and displays their unregenerate nature."
You said:" I listened to Bro. Click's message and much of his criticisms were based on misinformed sources..."
Now my friend where in the Bible does it say you can make judgement without all the facts? We are both in agreement as I read your comments. I emailed Norman Smith with a similar comment. I am not a hypercalvinist and BTW I am a Free Presbyterian and where I disagree with you is that I am neither unregenerate or mistaken if I note your own comments on the Gary Click sermon.
I have nothing to hide if you want to email me please do so as we are exhorted to seek 2 or 3 witnesses to prove the essential truth. Norman hardly displayed his own rules *clothed with humility*, and *speak the truth in love*, in his response did he?
Why I further responded is for his *reason* but his humility seems to allow him to make a charge but then refuse to back such up. Maybe he thinks that is 'speaking the truth in love'?
God bless you

Norman received 4 'hate' email from me-I suspect there isn't 4 others to be ashamed. Please feel free to email me-but I do not wish to make any further public comment.
Dear Norman
As you make your email address public I hope you don't mind my writing to you.
The problem with your comments are that you haven't understood correctly Gary Click's sermon-for the sake of clarity please listen to http://www.sermonaudio.com/sermoninfo.asp?SID=1011082323512
A Response to The TULIP Wilts-Pastor Trevor Hammack
It is shocking that Pastor Click makes such statements and he has been urged to repent and challenged to respond. Listen and base your comments on at least a truthful examination of the facts rather than gross distortions that are sadly so common by so many on sermonaudio who claim to know better.
His reply:So why dont you make YOUR comments public then ,know it all ?Please DONT you ever post emails to me trying to put me right again.Youi are as hypocritical as somebody else i know.

Shame on those 4 who would display such behavior. It is totally uncalled for and displays their unregenerate nature.
I listened to Bro. Click's message and much of his criticisms were based on misinformed sources. I have heard a couple of other messages that were anti-reformed as well and the same rhetoric is used. Misinformation! Instead of consulting the writings of Calvin himself or men like Witsius, he consults people like Dave Hunt or modern day people who call themselves Calvinist but have no idea what Calvin actually taught.
I remember you when you were out on the streets with placards giving out the gospel. You had a fire and zeal even as a reformed. I love the Free Presbyterian church because they are out on the streets and door to door. They have a passion to reach the lost for Christ. Don't let the hypers discourage you. Keep pressing for the mark.

Low and behold, that's what Gary Click resorts to. Instead of responding to *Norman Smith* with thanks via a personal, private email, Gary Click tagged his own sermon (in the comments section) with a "thank you" ......... and yet another swipe at Calvinists.
I find this pastor to be nothing more than an UNSTUDIED pot-stirrer and glory hound.
