I follow this principle:

Thou shalt not whizz in the pool.

Thou shalt condemn men who whizz in the pool and expose their pool whizzing to public scorn and shame.

There are many. Here is one

Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.(Matthew 5:16 KJV)

And you let your light shine through condemnation and insults.

2 Timothy 2:24-26
And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,
In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.

Titus 3:2
To speak evil of no man, to be no brawlers, but gentle, shewing all meekness unto all men.

Colossians 4:5
Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time.

1 Thessalonians 4:11,12
And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you;
That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing.

This is one of the oldest tricks in the atheist’s playbook:

Poke a stick in the face of a Christian until he gets angry and then exclaim, “That’s not very Christian of you!”

Why do so many of your posts - literally 75% or more - have nothing to do with substance? Are you no longer able to think clearly or sufficiently to engage in a substantive debate or discussion?

Is that why you always go for the trite and meaningless posts?

Whoosh

It is kind of ironic that josephw,, of all people, would quite Titus 3:2. And I think his reply indicates that he had a giggle over it too.

Whoosh all you want.

You’re one of the three most toxic posters in this forum and I see right through your pseudo-intellectual gasbaggery.
