You’re just upset I called you out on that “notion” business. You deserved to be called out on that and I was more than happy to do it.
If you were not predisposed to quickly searching for ammunition, you might have stopped to realize that.

Originally posted by @romans1009Yes, I am invariably embarrassed communicating with you. As I say, you are void of integrity and a poor ambassador of your faith.

And you may wish to google the different between 'misquoting' and 'misrepresenting.'

And your opinion of me means even less to me than dive’s.
You’re a bad hombre!

Did you want the crunchy or smooth PB today? We’re all out of white bread; is rye Ok? I’ll cut the crusts off the way you like it.

I would like to see absolute proof that Assad is behind all of that.
It literally makes no sense, the timeline they propose...
... So, ISIS is nearly defeated, we've just taken over Eastern Ghouta, and final victory is totally in sight...
... How about we create a massive international incident by gassing random civilians instead of simply pushing ahead with victory?
lol.
Sun Tzu's Art of War:
"When you're winning the war, always do something insanely controversial right before victory so as to draw in sympathies and enrage neighboring states."

Genocide implies that a specific group of people, esp. an ethnic group, has been targeted.
Otherwise, if it is just this general mass killing of political enemies, "democide" is a better word.

No, I don’t. Evil came into existence through rebellion against God by entities that had free will.

It’s sad you can’t acknowledge that you expressed yourself very poorly in that post.
Only a complete imbecile would decern, 'I have no notion of divine law' as me saying 'divine law, never heard of it.'
I expressed myself perfectly. You either understood it poorly or disingenuously. (I suspect the latter).

Originally posted by @apathistHow do you come to that conclusion? God is definitely in control.
Okay. So God is NOT in charge.
“Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:”
(Isaiah 46:10)
“Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.”
(Psalm 46:10)
God allows us to make our own choices, and Satan has no more power than God permits him. Notice in the book of Job, Satan couldn’t do anything to Job without God’s approval.
On a side note it amazes me that Job isn’t included among the heroes of the faith in Hebrews chapter 11.

Originally posted by @philokaliaThis community is crawling with Christians who believe they will be judged on whether or not they have faith and most expressly they believe they will not be judged on how they used their free will. This seems different from what you are saying. Do they have a point?
And, in the end, we will be judged on how we used our free will.
