Originally posted by SuzianneThe point of this thread is the OP. I wrote it, I think I know what it's point is, and you are missing it. Quite deliberately.
No. YOU are missing the point, as usual.
The entire point of James 4:1-4:6.
That says more than any of us could ever teach you about the point.
As if you'd listen.

Oh, I see.
And now the [b]point is not the meaning of James 4:4 after all. Then why all the hyperbole?
So, as I thought.
You and FMF are dragging us all through the mud of your own narcissism because, AGAIN, someone actually had the bad taste to disagree with you.
That's ALWAYS why you throw hissy fits![/b]
Then re read my OP.

That's not even good enough. But [b]of course you didn't quote the entire passage, because if you did, than ANYone reading it would understand not only why joseph said it, but why you two have been dodging the meaning of the passage ever since.
But now you will have no excuse.
"From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, ...[text shortened]... s 4:1-4:6, KJV
And now, ANYone can see why he said it. But you two STILL won't own up to it.[/b]

JosephW "needs" to do no such thing.
He has quoted the Bible, which stands on its own and speaks for itself.
To help the reader to understand, here is a more recent translation. They all say the same thing but this may be expressed more accessibly for some.

It's also useful n ...[text shortened]... ile examining one's conscience.
Or does Divegeester believe he has nothing further to learn?
Based on anything at all that you know about me, do you personally and honestly think I am an enemy of God? Yes or no?

The Bible is for everyone everywhere and at all times. Particularly appropriate when used in talking to divegeester since he makes so much of the fact that he's a Christian.
One would have thought he would welcome it.
Originally posted by StartreaderYou seem keep to talking about me to everyone else, I thought you might like to tell me if you think I'm an enemy of God?
And THAT's what this and so many other threads are about. Little divegeester waving frantically and jumping up and down, saying "I'm here! I'm here!"

If you are, I'm quite sure that you yourself know, deep in your heart.
I'm still enjoying the image you kindly gave us of yourself, Piglet-like, waving frantically, jumping up and down and squeaking shrilly "I'm here! I'm here!"
