Featured What if we met in person?

you don't follow along real well. Let's do this real slow...
1. You claimed to ask a question I didn't answer.
2. I prove above not only didn't you ask me any question, but you lied about it.
3. You then proceeded to say 'well I'm asking you now', in your own words condemning your honesty.
4. Now you are back to step 1. Unreal.

I did. Try reading.

Keep reading. Its just before the :thumbsup:

 

The question has been posed to you two times now.

No, you didn't. All you said is "My behavior towards you is as it should be. "

No, it isn't. All you said is "My behavior towards you is as it should be. "

That's twice now that you've been caught lying.

 

It would be similar for me. I have two friends who are members on baptistboard and they can testify that we get pretty heated at times.

I think we worry too much about all the "vitriol".

Most of us need to just "man up."

 

Unless you typed in white font, I still count once.

Like I said, read!

 

Well, maybe when you're a big boy, you'll be able to count higher than that.

 

Its still apparently a 100% improvement over your skills. Funny you didn't reply to the rest of the post. Hurts to get caught in bold faced lies, huh?

 

I have numerous Calvinist friends. We are all aware of the other's stances and discuss our doctrines and beliefs often. Most of us remain unswayed in our beliefs, but still can fellowship without animosity or unnecessary attacks. I do not doubt their salvation and have found them to be some of the most passionate intelligent Christians I know. They teach the same salvation and view the Great Commission as I do and also hold to the same doctrines I do with exception of predestination. None of us tolerate bashing whether we disagree with the person or not.

 

You mean the part of the thread where you just repeated what I already responded to?

You mean the part where you refused to answer the question, but just dismissed it by saying, "My behavior towards you is as it should be"?

 

You mean the part that I highlighted in really big font?

I thought I was on ignore. Anything come out of your keyboard that is wrapped in any shred of honesty?

 

The problem is that we have this hippy-sweet paradigm we try to plug modern Christianity into.

We think men ought to be almost effeminate in Christianity today.

We hate confrontation and we are overly worried about everybody's "feelings".

Christianity is not always syrupy sweet.

We don't always have to be nice.

And even with those we love dearly, we can and often OUGHT to be fiercely blunt.

If it is a true Christian friendship it will survive and thrive because of it.

If your friendships require everybody to be sweet to you all the time, your friendships are not worth a dime- and.. you are a girl.

 

Probably true. I have zero tolerance for lying. My kids know it is a spankable offense.

Irrelevant anyway. He's already on record as wanting nothing to do with any of us.

 

Think would find most cals nicer than you think, I am a big huggy bear, while most cals would probably find out the non cals are pretty regular joes!
