FU then.

By the way, try discussing things. You've become a dullard by assuming you can make 1 post, and continuously ask people to look at it. Be fluid, and stay relevant.

Dullard.

95% of your posts directed at FMF or Dive. - Creepy.

This in spite of the fact that neither has replied to you in months. - Creepy.

Copying Dive's avatar (and probably caressing it on your monitor). - Creepy.

(A creepiness clearly identified by the mods who have recently removed several of your posts).

.......Creepy.

It’s interesting how that every time I give you a piece of myself, some real help, some advice... that you just chuck it back at me in this way. I think I know what’s going one with you.

@chaney3 said
Thank you.

But I explained why I disagreed with some of your advice. That means the discussion moves forward, with additional posts.

I gave you personal reasons why that verse doesn't apply to me, and your only response was about self pity. Again, I'm doing okay, and do NOT feel sorry for myself at all. I just disagree strongly with that verse being applied to anyone but the Jewish exiles it was told to.

@divegeester said
You claim here that you are “doing ok” whereas elsewhere you claim you are a “Christian mess” when you are not even a Christian.

I don’t appreciate your abuse. Look back at your posts. I won’t bother offering you further advice.

I have not prospered the way I wanted, and yes I'm a Christian mess, but I am strong minded and strong willed, which is why I'm doing okay.

Stop acting like a friggin cupcake, you dish out plenty of abuse on these forums. Plenty!!

May I ask a question that comes to mind when reading this OP? When we think about our salvation is it due to us or Christ? If it is Christ then isn’t every Christian as righteous as the next no matter what? Wouldn’t that only be true, if we are seriously putting our faith Jesus Christ?

The differences between us, is not due to who is more righteous in ourselves. If this is not true, then Christ is not who we are putting our faith in for our salvation, but our own efforts.

We are not to bite and devour one another, instead love one another. I can only assume as we forgive those who harm us most, and all else, we display our obedience in doing that which our old nature would refuse to do. If we forgive those who harm us in both reality and our imaginations, and ask that God not hold any slight against us those who harm us to their account, we can experience what God gives us for our sins, grace and forgiveness.

What is our desire and motivation here, to one up another or serve the Lord?

Are you trying to say that Dive needs to repent, and change his ways?

If so, I'm with you brother.

@chaney3 said
I'm a better Christian than Dive.

@divegeester

I do not think that absolute doctrinal perfection is necessary for salvation. However, I am completely incapable of deciding such a thing. It's not my role.

I do know that leading people astray and preaching false doctrine that detracts from the true church is wrong.

Yet, who knows.

I hope you give up your heresy.
