Some kind of Appeal to Strawman. I don't know anyone who says that quoting Scripture is condemning. However, I do believe from your many posts that the converse is true of you; you condemn using Scripture - but want to condemn with impunity AS IF you are innocently posting Scripture (and NOT...

Why was Paul doing DISCIPLESHIP? For some odd reason, you keep committing the fallacy of Strawman. 1. You are saved by Grace Alone. 2. Faith & Grace is never alone (but accompanied by works). You are holding tight to #1 but in total denial of #2. IF someone has REAL faith, we do not determine...

No. You are using action words while trying to deny the ongoing action you are taking.

We are not of the House of Israel. We live in the age of Grace not Law.

I do not mislead but I don't go around correcting people's doctrine either. If they ask me, sure. Who made you the judge of other people's doctrine? Parable of the Rich (Judging) Fool 13 Then someone called from the crowd, “Teacher, please tell my brother to divide our father’s estate with...

You are losing me here. What is the name of this new denomination? (Or are you playing fast and lose with the term and mean it to refer to grace-centered organizations who refrain from calling out people's sins)

I fixed your sentence to highlight all the action you are taking (but apparently, not aware of it).

Yes we do. What action was Paul continuing until the end? He was fighting, finishing and keeping until the end, his faith through action. I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. 2 Timothy 4:7

LOL. Isn’t that the debate in this entire thread? I believe what you are saying with one caveat, the believer cannot THEN let go of the Savior, cannot THEN turn their back on the Savior. With rights come responsibilities. Sure, I can be invited to dinner and accept, completed. There is just...

I think it is about having a loving relationship first. When I say something to my friend of 3 decades it carries weight. When I blast a virtual stranger, not so much.

There is a quote from a Bishop Chaput that points out Tolerance is not a Christian virtue. Evil begs for tolerance. Then when common, condemns Good. Again, proselytizers hide their character behind a book they deem give them impunity to condemn. That's the law. We harvest the crop via Grace...

Disagree - somewhat. It's more about priorities - bringing people to Christ. Once people sacrifice themselves at the foot of the cross, they can read the Bible for themselves and let the Holy Spirit guide them in becoming sanctified. I think they already know. Jeremiah 31:33. All they need to...

It is unclear what new denomination you are talking about. However, a point I've made to Bible thumping proselytizers all my life is that the Bible is an inanimate object and does not speak. Thereby, the proselytizer hides their character behind a book they deem give them impunity to condemn...

I suggest saying a prayer before every Bible reading. Pray that you will understand the words by the Holy Spirit that you need.

Words are cheap. The proof is in the pudding, the fruit.

Is this institutional chauvinism; boys to apologise to girls for gender?

Interesting. Not sure how you are parsing the evil of feminism from its chauvinistic nature, e.g., seminars on toxic masculinity. Or would you deny men conducting seminars across the country on the inherent toxicity of women would be insufficiently chauvinistic?

No. Nation different than Tribe?

What does this after to do with the price of tea in China?

I'll take this at face value even though I suspect you know full well ... Given a thread about Good Apples. You do not have to, however, post about Good Oranges or Bad Apples. The right view of the comparison world is a 2 x 2 matrix; not just Apples and Oranges, but Good and Bad, in this case...
