because o will not part from the above, is why im a "trouble maker" according to a couple gog believers because oi refuse to make uop my own version of salvation or spread it to others.....but im done with the argument anyways ill look to simply avoid at all costs the gog crowd hopefully theyll give me the same respect.

You know this line of dialogue sounds a lot like gossip and evil speaking to me.
Why don't y'all talk to the guy or address only his false teachings?
Why personal attacks on either side?
I thought the goal is to set the captives free of the lies that entrap them....not lash out because that guy makes me mad...

Probably painting a target in myself, but I was always taught two wrongs don't make a right.
God says to love not only our siblings but our enemies too.
Have no clue what happened since my last post a few days ago, but too often we fall into the temptation to reaact in the same unjust and unhelpful manner we were attacked with...
Not that I have seen you do it Mailman, but thin line.

This too looks like a personal attack.
However, I pointed out his heresy and he personally attacked me with slander, and attacked me again when I countered. Are you against him in this scenario, or me? He is exposed as a false teacher while he goes around falsely accusing others of being false teachers. If you are against me speaking the truth to his lies, I don't know what else to say.

Yeah and many Christians in general don't do well being called out when they behave in an unChristlike manner.
Fyi, I have not read, this thread so my observation is about a member who has never posted here.
I actually came to hang out with y'all because when, I left there seemed to be real fellowship.
I was tired of being told I was a liar, slander, hypocrite, etc.

In all fairness I believe Jason/followjesus has good intentions and he just can't see that other fellow believers in Christ can have a different view then his own interpretations of Jesus's words.
Sometimes in this belief all of us can mis-represent what is really being said by others or we can just plain not agree too - which is fine. He is entitled to his personal beliefs. I bless him in the name of the Lord.
Jesus and our loving Father will be faithful to him - the same as for all of us! We have a good, good Father!
I am not feeling defensive, I am simply pointing out heresy and falsehoods and speaking the truth plain and simple while a certain person continues to lie about me, as he has done for quite some time. I am not sure, are you saying I should never counter lies with the truth? Do you never stick up for yourself? Do you always feel defensive when you do? I would prefer it if you do not attempt to tell me how I feel. I really don't appreciate it, and telling you this is what I call HAVING GOOD BOUNDARIES.
Having good boundaries is an essential interpersonal skill, and it entails being able differentiate the truth from what is not the truth, as well as having the ability to speak up and stand on the side of truth. People try to silence me all the time for whatever reason, while they continue whatever they are blabbing on about, trying to discount and discredit me in quite a few ways actually, sometimes completely making stuff up out of the bowels of their paranoid delusions. Then they have the audacity to post what they think as if it is my truth. They may become outraged when I call them on their nonsense, and sometimes they will even put me on ignore because I stand up to their ridiculous rationalizations and justifications for their reprehensible behavior. People are funny, though it is not always amusing. Still, I maintain my right to have boundaries, and to stand for the truth.
Yes, I was simply pointing out that your post was against someone, and sought clarity as to who it was actually directed against, and did not mean, by saying it was a personal attack, that it was necessarily a personal attack against me... My hair is washed now 
I have put more color in it... any guesses at to which color I may have chosen?
