@rajk999 saidSo now you’re in a position to Judge?

@dj2becker saidYes I am. We all are in a position to judge. If you lack that ability then I suggest you pray for guidance and Knowledge. First we are to understand what God said about eternal life and compare that with what man says. That way you know if a man is of Christ or not. Next Jesus said clearly what is the criteria for entry into the Kingdom of God and sonship preaches another doctrine. Preachers who continue along that path of misleading people then that is a grave sin. They are doomed.

@suzianne saidYou don’t have one example related to spirituality?
Read a newspaper. Examples are rife.
@kellyjay saidYour mother is a dumb-ass.
One of my favorite quotes comes from my mom, "If money can fix it, it is not a real problem."
@kegge saidWell currently she is dying of cancer, I don't think I'll pass that along to her.
Your mother is a dumb-ass.
@kellyjay saidThat is called sympathy-mongering. Its a low ploy to escape the consequences of your stupidity

@rajk999 saidNo one asked for you or anyone else to be insulting.

@kellyjay saidAnd no one asked you to suddenly weaponise an unknown piece of personal information for the purposes of forum banter.
No one asked for you or anyone else to be insulting.

@sonship saidSuch as calling another Christian a “heretic” because they disagreed with you?
The anonymous nature of the Internet makes some people say things that they would never say to your face.
@suzianne saidBut I thought it was Trump/Bushs' fault.
I understand that Buddhists have a saying:
"In the Western world, the finger points outward. In Zen, the finger points inward."
This makes sense to me. We are always looking for someone to take the blame. Finding fault is becoming a national pastime for Americans, especially. Whenever something bad happens, we look around for someone to blame. "Someone's got to pa ...[text shortened]... breast
are not the same kind of lump.
One needs to learn the difference."

@sonship saidThe anonymous nature of the Internet doesn't make anyone say anything! It just shows the vile nature within some people, who they really are. I like the modified version of power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. I actually don't think that one is true, but what is, in my opinion, power reveals corruption and absolute power will reveal completely. They can say whatever is within them, exposing themselves for who they really are.

Hoping you have quality time with your mother.
Sorry to hear of this.
Help her to draw close to God perhaps in the Psalms.
I too am caring for someone towards the end of their life.
Be strong in the grace of the Lord.
He is underneath with His everlasting arms.
