@sonship saidMmmm. You appear to be trying to change the subject immediately.
This is especially good advice when you hear someone teach something you don't want to hear about.
Do you think you have the necessary interpersonal skills to be the self-appointed "teacher" that you style yourself as?
As you know ~ because I have said it before ~ I think your arid, joyless, sanctimonious persona is counterproductive.
In my opinion, your attempts to walk the Christian walk should be channelled into something else rather than trotting out Witness Lee stuff day after day and then snapping and pouting at the only people willing to talk to you.
You are more akin to the proverbial drooling midrange accountant than to being a "teacher", something you appear not to be suited to.

And for those who think describing sonship as "arid, joyless, sanctimonious" and likening him to a "drooling midrange accountant" is a bit harsh, I would like to point out that I am NOT describing his beliefs as "excrement" nor accusing him of wilfully working for the evilest creature humans have ever imagined, so I certainly can't be said to be 'replying in kind' here.

Judgement is a Human construction. God has no need to judge someone. Actually if you believe he gave us Free Will then by logic there could not be a "Judgement" of anyone.

@sonship saidI think your reply to me sidestepped the point which was directed at self appointed teachers such as yourself and you tried to blame the listener or student.
I do not misunderstand the scripture.
I took it as an opportunity to point out that the "good advice" of it may be used to rationalize not being taught.

I have thought about this QueenHumper. But it seems this is saying something like this:
Ok, Creator. You can give us free will. But if you DO you have to GIVE UP your eternal righteousness. Giving up your nature is the cost of granting your creatures free will.
I am not sure that this is how it goes. That is God, by granting us free will, cannot then maintain His own eternal nature of righteousness.
I think, and I have said here before, it is more like this.
God establishes a relationship with humans. Now we have the ability to ruin that relationship. But if we damage that relationship He has to be the one to come in to fix it.
Ie. "I establish this relationship between God and man. Man has the freedom to ruin that relationship of his choice. But if he does God not man has to come in to restore what has been damaged."
Consider Calvary more in this light, I would suggest today.
