I am ignoring those who just insult & I am only repling to those who offer Scripture.

I am ignoring those who just insult me & I am only replying to those who offer Scripture.

I am here at ChristianChat in order to:

(a) Have fellowship (and learn the Word from others),
(b) Deepen my studies in the Scriptures,
(c) To teach what I have personally learned in His Word,
(d) To correct others in the Word (if they are choosing to disobey it).

For people can insult me, but if they do not offer any Scripture, then there is nothing for us to really talk about. This is a Bible discussion section on a Christian forum where we are supposed to talk about the Bible. But many here just want to insult you instead of talking about God's Word.

Now, there are those who insult me and also use Scripture, too. In these cases, I will try and reply to their insult with Scripture (So as to correct the bad behavior). But if they are using the Bible, I can at least have something to talk with them about. For that is why we are here. To talk about the Bible.

In any event, I say this not to wound anyone but the Word is why I am here. Not just the written Word but the Living Word.

Anyways, may God's goodness be upon you.
And please be well.

Sincerely,

~ Jason.

Yes, 1 John 2:4 is the context of 1 John 1:8. You cannot claim you sin all the time because 1 John 2:4 says he that says he knows him and does not keep his commandments is a liar and the truth is not in him. We know sin is merely transgression of the law (1 John 3:4).

Re: I am ignoring those who just insult & I am only repling to those who offer Script

I've already repled to you on this verse here, and here.
I know, Jason.

I just like that one. You also stated that we needed to post scripture, if we wanted to be acknowledged by you.
That's it.

Plus the thread was dying ,so l bumped it.

That's it.
But isn't it God we should want to be acknowledged by?

Matthew 7:15

Check Mate.
And the continued context,

"Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. (Matthew 7:16-23).

Romans 3:10 springs to mind.

This one is easy. Romans 3:10 is in context to Romans 3:11. If Romans 3:10 was saying all people were not righteous (in the present moment) then we would also have to conclude that there is nobody that seeks after God and that there is nobody that has any spiritual understanding as it is mentioned in Romans 3:11. But this is not the case. Paul is talking about how we were before we were believers.

Re: I am ignoring those who just insult & I am only repling to those who offer Script

The King returns...

He is clothed in a robe dipped in blood, and the name by which he is called is The Word of God. And the armies of heaven, arrayed in fine linen, white and pure, were following him on white horses. From his mouth comes a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations, and he will rule them with a rod of iron. He will tread the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God the Almighty. On his robe and on his thigh he has a name written, King of kings and Lord of lords.
(Rev 19:13-16)

“But avoid foolish disputes, genealogies, contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and useless. Reject a divisive man after the first and second admonition, knowing that such a person is warped and sinning, being self-condemned.” (Titus 3:9-11)

Jeremiah 17:9

The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick; who can understand it?
And the context,

"For where envy and self-seeking exist, confusion and every evil thing are there. But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy. Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace." (James 3:13-18)
