Using the Bible to insult people

Interesting! 🙂

Does josephw's citing of Janes 4:4 now make you wary of having anything to do with non-Christians [like Wolfgang59] on this web site?

So josephw's citing of James 4:4 does apply when divegeester swaps quips with non-Christian Wolfgang59 but... it doesn't apply if you swaps quips with non-Christian Wolfgang59? Didn't you just say James 4:4 "applies to everyone"?

Offspring of vipers, how can you speak good things, when you are wicked? Matthew 12:34

It's for josephw to explain.

He explained it on page 2.

Tell josephw to explain it to you. And then ask him to explain it in public.

jospehw cited the verse. He needs to explain it. He needs to explain how he thinks it applies to divegeester and why divegeester's quip to Wolfgang59 triggered it.

This thread... page 2 in this thread.

What on earth are you talking about? What possible connection are you making between that post and your preceding post?

The Bible, and thus James 4 including the fourth verse applies to everyone at all times.

I don't "swap quips" with anyone. It's not my style. Nor that of James in 4:4.

It was about Grampy Bobby copy pasting stuff on the General Forum, it wasn't about Christian doctrine.

As for the latter, divegeester doesn't subscribe to the doctrine of the Trinity and does not believe that the Christian God tortures non-believers for eternity. These are fairly standard interpretations held by countless millions of Christians. Disagreeing ...[text shortened]... rine".

Surely, trying to land silly punches on a message board is not what the Bible is for?

Well put.

You two clowns still don't get it. It's not just about one so called "harmless quip". It's about the constant harassment and abuse in which you both habitually indulge yourselves.

If you could kindly point to an example of "constant harassment and abuse" by myself, I would be very grateful.

Just read the entire passage. James 4:1-4:6.

Once you understand it, come in here and you tell us what it means.

Think you can do that? Or is sitting back and judging all you can do?

Instead of telling a non Christian to read the entire passage, why don't you show some backbone and come out and say wether of not you agree with josephw and also think I am an enemy of God? If not say so and stop hiding like the rest of these mean-spirited cowards.

Not at all. I keep hoping you'll educate yourself before the next time you embarrass yourself with some narcissistic whining. And I am kept waiting.

This thread is not about hoping, narcissism, your loathing of me nor your patience. It is about partisan unprincipled Christians using Biblbical scripture to score cheap points on the Internet.

No. I'm done. You aren't interested in answers. You're only interested in "scoring points".

I'm not playing your juvenile game.

Just as well as you are no adding anything to the thread with your continual bleating about your dislike for me or FMF.
