That's wise, brother, because you may see him in heaven :) I try to listen to the other person's point of view objectively and then put a weight on it, instead of rejecting their view outright. When meaningful communication is not possible, i.e., when they do not understand what I am saying...

Sure, but I prefer the formal FOL definition when I debate.

Nice find. See Concerning the work of My hands, you COMMAND Me and follow up there.

NKJ, Isa 45: Can we command and order God? ESV offered this translation: ESV softened the command by turning it into a question. Furthermore: Barns explained: At Biblehub, 7 versions used a statement while 14 used a question. Let's check the context. ESV, Isa 45: Isaiah pointed out the...

Do you want to wager on that? This is the 3rd and the last time I have asked. You can say you are 100% sure the earth is flat. Words are cheap unless you are willing to wager on it.
