By that pretense you are a hypocrite, for this is what you do to those who do NOT believe in Christianity.

You feel your sin is forgiven, so that somehow makes you the judge of those whose sins are not ?

Please tell me that this is your view...so I do not appear to be "assuming" incorrectly.

I am not here to fight you. I simply won't allow you to mutilate and misrepresent the word of God in order to fulfill your own selfish desires, which I have yet to figure out.

You can't stand to be wrong, which is also a sign that your heart is in the wrong place.

Not all of us geeks are relishing in your debate. It's never fun to see people argue, it creates negativity that ruins the fun of a good debate.

DS,

Personally, I try not to argue with you, youre a fellow Christian, Ive shown this attitude by not responding to every misuse of scripture that you post....which in my opinion is a GRAND misuse. Every little pimple faced computer nerd is watching our little debate and are relishing it. There is nothing good that comes from it.

Also, I dont like Hecklers (http://www.m-w.com/cgi-bin/dictionary?book=Dictionary&va=heckle&x=18&y=18)

this will be my last post in this thread.

If you want post your email address for 5 minutes we can discuss this in private.

To be a heckler would indicate some sort of desire for vengeance...to ridicule and belittle, and that is NOT my intention.

I do not believe for one moment that the reason you do not debate me on these issues is because you wish to avoid scrutiny and portray an image of unity amongst Christians...

We are NOT all alike.

There are some that follow the word of God, and other who use it for their own selfish gain.

I do not think it is fair to the readers of this forum for you to publicly HECKLE them, only to "privately" debate why you do this between email.

Tell us all, Sniper Piper, why you do this ? I am sure everyone would be interested to know, not just me. (though I truly am)

I am not angry about your misconceptions...I am positive I have a few of my own. Rather, I am incensed by your inability to take God's word in it's entirety, and use it for the purpose in which it was intended.

If this is your last post regarding your approach, so be it. I have been heard, and (God willing) so has He.

God bless you, and keep you...in all of your days.

*incredulous*

I am sorry, but it seems to me that all EVERYONE on this site wants to do is ARGUE !

The name calling, the personal jabs, the complete disrespect for each other is atrocious.

Why are YOU chastising ME on this issue, Optimus ?

I have read your posts throughout these pages, and often you are unfair, judgemental, and altogether close-minded.

I have seen you, several times, call other's "douchebag's"...is that not argumentative ?

I do not believe you have any ground to stand on, as far as lecturing US on how to conduct our thread.

We choose what we say, just as everyone else does...there seems to be NO regulation for THAT.

I think this is the part where Sniper Piper nails 95 reasons he's upset with such opposition to Digital Savior's door and begins the catalyst of the lax spirituality that ultimately subverts Christianity as a whole in the public eye.

Sounds like its time for a game of christian survivor.

Who gets voted off the island this week?

If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but I do not have love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. And if I have prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith so that I can remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give away everything I own, and if I give over my body in order to boast,1 but do not have love, I receive no benefit.

Love is patient, love is kind, it is not envious. Love does not brag, it is not puffed up. It is not rude, it is not self-serving, it is not easily angered or resentful. It is not glad about injustice, but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

Love never ends. But if there are prophecies, they will be set aside; if there are tongues, they will cease; if there is knowledge, it will be set aside. For we know in part, and we prophesy in part, but when what is perfect comes, the partial will be set aside. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. But when I became an adult, I set aside childish ways. For now we see in a mirror indirectly, but then we will see face to face. Now I know in part, but then I will know fully, just as I have been fully known. And now these three remain: faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love.

I think we should take the time to read this, and if we genuinely want to follow Christ, live this.
