@kellyjay saidThis is not in dispute.
World wide through all recorded history good and evil are acknowledged, what is good and evil are debated to what degrees are somethings considered good and evil.

@kellyjay saidWhat "someone"? What "obligations"?
You simply refusing to acknowledge someone greater than you doesn’t release you from your obligations.
@kellyjay saidWho is suggesting we "live our lives without a moral set of boundaries"? This is a clumsy strawman, KellyJay. Why can't you converse in good faith?
To live our lives without a moral set of boundaries is destructive, look at the end results of almost any addiction where the focus of one’s life is fixated on satisfying a need.
You simply refusing to acknowledge someone greater than you doesn’t release you from your obligations. It just adds to not following the greatest good, settling for something much less, that is all, in defiance of Him.
@divegeester saidWhat’s the matter kellyjay, can’t give an unequivocal yes or no answer?
Here’s the question again KellyJay.
Did the Christians whom you claim you only “bumped into once or twice” teach you about Christ, the gospel and salvation such that you sought god?
Simple question
Yes, or no?
@divegeester saidYou really do need to read the Bible dive, I mean study the thing, get in deep
Well… there it is.
Not in fact “called by God”, just educated by other Christians one “bumps into”, same as everyone else.
@kellyjay saidTry not to get abusive just because pages ago I spotted you trying to infer that you were “Called of God” to “make a choice” and not educated in the gospel by a few Christians whom you bumped into” “once or twice”
You really do need to read the Bible dive, I mean study the thing, get in deep
because you don't know you a$$ from a hole in the ground concerning the
gospel.
@divegeester saidYou don't grasp the simplest of answers, nor do you understand scripture.

Did the Christians whom you claim you only “bumped into once or twice” teach you about Christ, the gospel and salvation such that you sought god?
You can either be honest, or you can continue posting abuse.
@divegeester saidI accept that this is your reductionist and narrow-minded view of the matter, perhaps arrived at by the working of mechanisms and influences and even arbitrary occurrences far beyond your control (although of course I imagine that you will attempt to take some credit for it if not full credit), and that there is nothing to be done and it can't be helped.
Well… there it is.
Not in fact “called by God”, just educated by other Christians one “bumps into”, same as everyone else.
@divegeester saidWould the Christ of your understanding write such a post?

@kellyjay saidWho is suggesting we "live our lives without a moral set of boundaries"? Who are you talking to/about?
To live our lives without a moral set of boundaries is destructive, look at the end results of almost any addiction where the focus of one’s life is fixated on satisfying a need.
@fmf saidWouldn't this be a good time for you to trot out your "moral compass" from wherever you normally stash it?
Who is suggesting we "live our lives without a moral set of boundaries"? Who are you talking to/about?
@kellyjay saidSo why not give me straight answer instead of all this dodging and deflection KellyJay? We both know why which is why you have gotten abusive.
Abuse, telling you God must call us before we come, showing scripture that backs
that up and you act like nothing was said, you simply don't understand the simplest
of answers to your questions. So only one-word answers compute to you, if
someone adds another clarifying word of two you are over your head?
I'm not trying to be abusive either, but seriously, you repeat q ...[text shortened]... after
question after getting an answer, and if they are longer than yes, no, you don't
understand?
