You may not agree you have nasty habits, but I treated you like you treat others here
you'd hate it.

@fmf said🙂 What is that truth concerning attraction and repulsion?
I think I would not hate it.
@kellyjay saidNo, I don't think I would despise it. I think you would be a far better advocate for your religion if you took a few leaves from my book and engaged me [and others] in the way I engage you.

I think you would despise it!

@kellyjay saidIt is utterly impossible to imagine that there is a God who is working through you here on this message board. I cannot imagine anyone neutral reading your writing and thinking 'I want me some of that mindmap, I want me some of that "God's work" that this poster is displaying'.
Another place we part company, I do believe we are to use the gifts we have for
the glory of God, but God doesn't need us. We can share the gospel, but our
arguments are meaningless if God doesn't do a work. In other words, it is always
God not us that does the real work, we can plant the seeds, but God gives the
increase.
@kellyjay saidYour demeanour and communication skills ARE about you.
It isn't about us, it is about Jesus and the reward of His
suffering.
@kellyjay saidYou'd 'carry my bags'? "And luggage". Sorry. Don't know what you mean. An Americanism perhaps?
Personally if you ever did get right with God and became blessed at
sharing the gospel I'd carry your bags and luggage to make that happen, and be
honored to do it.
@kellyjay saidDoes the word "nasty" apply to what I DID do?
Sorry I just woke up, you didn't do what I thought when I first read this.
@fmf saidI am not surprised. God works and it isn't always clear what He is doing and who is

@kellyjay saidSo much for "you'll know them by their fruits" then.
I am not surprised. God works and it isn't always clear what He is doing and who is
being affected why and how. With some their hearts can be soften, others hearing
the same words could cause their hearts to get harder. I've been blessed to see
some come to the Lord in real life that I shared with, and they have been walking
with the Lord for several years. I try not to ...[text shortened]... assessment, God has
to work in spite of our efforts too, we do screw things up more times than not.
@kellyjay said"The work"?
If you were the one doing the work I'd just be happy helping you do it by doing
the little things you need done.
@fmf saidYou can know them by their fruits, just not by them saying a sinners prayer.

@kellyjay said"Saying a sinners prayer"?
You can know them by their fruits, just not by them saying a sinners prayer.
@fmf saidScripturally speaking God calls the church a living body, as a body some parts are
"The work"?
"Little things" that need doing?
Are you deep in the tall weeds of some American saying here?
