Because my goals have nothing to do with niceness?
It seems niceness is a way for people to get around interacting or get by without anyone hurting them. Many have been nice to me, and I helped them because of it. But when I needed help, they disappeared. What I needed help with didn't add up to simply being nice.
Also, I was being nice to you and then you told me you weren't going to talk to me anymore, (BTW, isn't this talking to me) because I'm mean.
I simply can't maneuver within the fields of vague niceness. Can't even work when I try. So I go with who I am, and find out enough like me for me.

hub and me, we don't care who likes us or not', we care what Jesus 'likes'
for us to be doing, saying, ministering for Him as the Holy Spirit guides...
this can only come by over-coming the 'old and putting on the new'...
'old bottle - new bottles'...
if you ever 'hear' yourself 'sounding/acting like the 'old', then this is a 'wake-up call',
and should always be 'welcome', recognized as a way that He is continually
healing/refining us for The Kingdom...

Nope. Not gonna do it.
From now on there are only Calvinists and dumb Calvinists who don't know they are Calvinists yet. Try to be nice to the dumb ones...
And there are only Conservatives and dumb Conservatives who don't know they are Conservative yet. Try to be nice to the dumb ones.
Remember, we were once just as dumb as they are... We were blind, but now we see...

i was a dumb Calvinist when i joined in 2012. i was seeing a bunch of things in the Scriptures that had me asking questions at our (Arminian) church. i had those poor men snatching themselves bald. lol
then a bunch of kind Calvinists here (you among them, my friend
) showed me what i was seeing were the doctrines of grace!oh, the beauty of sight; the beauty and majesty of our God.
A little practice of Hebrews 12:14 for the OP and the rest of us too, would be in order.
And really, if there is a need, feel free to put me on ignore. Threads designed to vindicate oneself while slamming many indiscriminately who disagree with them is old, callow, unChristian IMHO. It is quite simply sowing discord and is divisive.
