This is not intended as a long drawn out discussion invitation.
If there is an OP it is personal.
I will discussif really necessary. There might be some profit in that to some.
I forgive anyone who has insulted me with whatever words I did not like. Recently, I begin my prayers with a request that God would have mercy on all my enemies. If I have any, I begin some of my prayer sessions with this first request:
"Lord, you did say for us to be forgiven as we forgive those who trespass against us. Please Father, have mercy on all of my enemies or anyone who has trespassed against me."

@divegeester
I did that a few years back.
You're a good researcher. Why not go back and find it for me?
@sonship saidYou really do not believe in the teachings of Christ...

And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly. But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him. (Matthew 6:5-8 KJV)
A genuine prayer for those who you think wronged you would have been done in private. but because you are a hypocrite [said Jesus], you choose to do it in public so that you may be seen by the forum.
I cannot think of anyone who wronged you on this forum. People tell you the truth and if you think that is wrong [simply because you do not like the truth then you need to look closely at yourself.

Weaponizing the scriptures as a means to denunciate, ridicule, judge, condemn and insult Christians.

@josephw saidI quote Christ and you cannot stand Christ. I understand.
There it is again.
Weaponizing the scriptures as a means to denunciate, ridicule, judge, condemn and insult Christians.
Its Church Christians v Christ.
The Word of God speaks and Church Christians hate it because it is the truth, and their church promote another doctrine.
I wonder who will win ... lol 😀
Weaponizing scriptures ... thats like works salvation and intimate relationship with God.

@sonship saidYou've dished out some pretty unpleasant insults this year alone, so I'd say Divegeester was right on the button.

@avalanchethecat saidCorrect. A newbie reading this thread would think sonship is a saint.
