NOT ONE OF US IS RIGHTEOUS, not one of us lives lives worthy! Grace not merit dive if you think any of us can live up God’s righteousness your delusional. His love for us has Him working on our behalf, if not, we would avoid Him, it is His love that compels us, not anything originating from us.
Your just dodging KellyJay. Why is that?
Here is your assertion again. I’m calling it (part a) out as being made up by you, and erroneous.

“Someone who is only partially obedient is disobedient, just as there are no shades or of truth, something is true or not, obedience is or isn't as well. We need God's grace and mercy, our efforts will never be enough.”

- I’ve asked you if you are “completely obedient” and you said “no”.
- I’ve asked you if you are therefore “partially obedient” and therefore “disobedient” and you said “no”.

So you yourself don’t admit to fitting into your own assertion and now you are desperately dodging the questions because your pride won’t permit you just say “I made a mistake”.

As usual!

If you are not in Christ you are not a Christian, I don't care how you order your life.
The standard is perfection, we are not, our sanctification is God making us like Jesus
and there our disobedience is transformed into obedience as we become more like
Him, it is a work of God, not man.

Don’t you feel embarrassed to keep dodging like this, don’t you feel a little shame? Where’s your backbone, your integrity?

Isn't "righteousness" a social construct?

Oh I can assure you I’m paying full attention Kellyjay.

You just don’t like being pulled up on your erroneous assertions.
Tbh I only do it to watch you hem and haw and dodge as your pride messes with you 😉

Only a prideful and sadistic person would write such a harsh post.

I take comfort in the fact that you shall roast screaming for uncountable aeons for the harm you inflict on your earthly siblings, and that your screams shall fall upon deaf but loving ears.

Whatever blows-your-bags, cools-your-jets and gives you peace-and-succor is heartwarming to read about.

Oh, now -- never said I wouldn't pray for you.

As for me, not sure whether I am becalmed or unmoored. I don't think "grounded" would be the word (except among the alt-grounded crowd).

Also, that's not the way to use hyphens.

You remind me of an angry old cat prowling the gardens looking for a bird to torture but which lacks the lithe nimbleness of its youth is now too lazy to even clean itself … and so it lashes out at the occasional stroking hand and draws a fleeting pleasure from the shocked retraction.

How’s that?

Sounds more like you. Are you doing okay over there?

Hmm. Don't answer. Not my business or anyone else's.

What I could say generally is: Appreciate that you were ever here at all, and that you are still here. We are born, we live, we age, we die -- nobody signed any contracts on either side of that.

Not really. Life is imploding around me; job, finances, relationship and health all in the crapper.

Oh, sorry to hear about that.

Well, I don't have you blocked at the moment in case you just want to spew privately or ask for probably bad advice from a gay American man who has been single for decades, with no local friends, who has no money in the bank, and whose house needs some plumbing and roofing repairs -- hmm, I guess I added those things so it wouldn't sound too much like "Hohoho, I've got mine, Jack, why isn't your house in order?" 😉

P.S. -- I was counting on you to get that my "roasting for uncountable aeons" post was not serious.
