Surely josephw is the one to ask? wolfgang59 and divegeester shared a joke about your copy pasting habit in some chit chat on the General Forum and along came professed Christian josephw directing James 4:4 [it's about being "an enemy of God"] at fellow Christian divegeester, presumably on account of the fact that wolfgang59 is not a Christian, while you are. I ...[text shortened]... as bitter an insult as one Christian can hurl at another. You should ask josephw why he did it.
Obviously it really gets under the skin when God calls it like it is.

You all look like a group of window-lickers on a day trip to the zoo to me - divegeester
Its this phrase here, 'window lickers' that is the most disturbing for it purports to be a derogatory term for disabled people. Why divegeester feels the necessity to castigate persons who through no fault of their own suffer disabilities is known only to him.

Wasn't it you who was purporting to "call it like it is" when you chose to aim James 4:4 at divegeester in the middle of some General Forum chatter? How can you possibly claim that it was "God" who posted James 4:4 on that thread?
Originally posted by robbie carrobieThe first poster I remember using the term "window licker" on these forums is you. Haven't you used it as an insult many times yourself?

To appease crybabies. That, and to show civility, even when no affront was intended.

I did "call it like it is". divegeester was siding with the nay sayers in insulting a brother in The Lord. The citation was appropriate to the occasion.
"How can you possibly claim that it was "God" who posted James 4:4 on that thread?"
That's a strange thing for you to say. I won't comment on it.
josephw: I have never insulted any using the Bible in my life contrary to yours or divegeester's opinions.So it was not a genuine apology? It was some kind of expedient "apology" that was not meant sincerely?

Originally posted by josephwIt was some General Forum banter poking fun at Grampy Bobby's proclivity for copy pasting. Is that really a situation that James 4:4 - and the Bible generally ~ is intended for? Do you sincerely believe that, in that forum chatter, divegeester demonstrated "enmity for God" by mentioning Grampy Bobby's copy pasting? Do you really believe this is an example of an "appropriate [...] occasion" for one Christian to suggest to another Christian that he or she is "an enemy of God"?

Originally posted by josephwAs a Christian speaking to a fellow Christian, do you really - genuinely - sincerely seek to suggest to divegeester that he is "an enemy of God"? And is that why you cited James 4:4 on a General Forum thread when you came across him teasing another poster about his copy pasting habit?
As Jesus said, "But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart;.."
Just keep it up geester. Impugn, malign and insult.
