Every time that person walks by my desk I become very angry inside because as far as I can see, he enjoys incorporating innuendos in almost all of his casual conversations. I have absolutely <I>zero tolerance</I> for men like that. It's so nice to know that Spurgeon was a manly man who would stand up and rebuke men for such disgusting practices!!!<br /><br />(My word verification: "hympig".

I mean look at Spurgeon "mass of putrefaction." Some of today's more lurid Pastors would probably just use the S word which just doesn't have the same intense meaning.Aaronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15285043747501470199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21212024.post-28527479978260840042009-04-26T17:57:00.000-07:002009-04-26T17:57:00.000-07:00Who knew Spurgeon was such a negative...Who knew Spurgeon was such a negative...Rachael Starkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10781158372237369417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21212024.post-28281376350771692732009-04-26T17:40:00.000-07:002009-04-26T17:40:00.000-07:00"I have known one such walking mass of putrefactio..."I have known one such walking mass of putrefaction defile a whole parish."<br /><br />Spurgeon didn't sugar-coat things, did he. After reading this post, I have a guy I work with that comes to mind. He seems to take great delight in using especially filthy language. And as Spurgeon says, these kind of people can have a bad effect on most everyone come in contact with.Jeff Branchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01402561454519694074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21212024.post-27847444240356043912009-04-26T13:15:00.000-07:002009-04-26T13:15:00.000-07:00Off-Topic
