You said, 'Jesus wants better than that.'

I replied, that I suspect, 'trying is all he requires.'

Didn't we just have an entire thread about humility? Why do you judge so harshly a Christian who acknowledges his weakness and need for God to make him stronger?

Are you really that daft? (Rhetorical).
I am merely asking questions.
It is not my place to judge.

Dive started a thread on humility, but he rarely acts humble, on this forum. And HE admitted that.

We could obviously say the same about me, but Dive seemed to be okay with a few questions thrown his way.


"I'm doing the best I can, I'm only human you know".

Does God lose patience for the above phrase? Or does He expect much more from one who claims to be in the spirit of Christ?

Quite a lot of your posts seem to indicate that you do think it is your place to judge. This is a gap between thought and deed on your part that you perhaps ought to reflect upon.

In this thread, do you feel that I have judged Dive?
If yes, explain.

I can't be bothered to see what's specifically on this thread, or another thread, or a dozen other threads. If you believe there is no gap between your thought and deed, then that's fine by me.

I just think it's something for you to reflect on because I think you telling yourself "It is not my place to judge" is borderline tragic.

If I were you I would go for six months without giving even a whiff of judging people before you made such a claim about how you see yourself and what you think your 'place' is or isn't.

You should seriously take your own advice. You're the one who ditched Jesus, and now refers to Him as a superstitious god figure.

Your position and attitude are much worse than mine. I wonder sometimes how Dive doesn't get aggravated with your cold mocking of his beliefs.

There's that gap I was talking about again

What advice did I give you that you think applies to me and my loss of Christian faith?

As usual, you deflect and evade by resorting back to ME. It's a neat trick to avoid answering the question.

Why are you a weak Christian after 30 years of experience?

Is your 'out' that you're just human, and doing the best you can? Is that really a satisfactory stance?

So it's okay to point out my shortcomings, but yours remain secret. Hypocrite.

You need to be challenged, and your pal FMF isn't gonna do it.
