"We both have truths, are mine the same as yours?"

I can only imagine the grief Christ must have suffered trying to reason with the unreasonable. To insinuate that I said (typed) things that I never said...what profit is there in mocking a fellow brother/believer in Christ?
Ezekiel 12:2
"Son of man, you live in the midst of the rebellious house, who have eyes to see but do not see, ears to hear but do not hear; for they are a rebellious house.
My understanding of Christianity is to ease the suffering among our brothers and sisters in this world gone insane...not to amplify it and reduce people to tears. Is Christian Chat a shelter from 'the storm', or is it like many hospitals today...a place to go to (spiritually) die?
Matthew 15:14
Disregard them! They are blind guides. If a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into a pit."
John 9:39
Then Jesus declared, "For judgment I have come into this world, so that the blind may see and those who see may become blind."
James 3
13Who is wise and understanding among you? Let them show it by their good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom.
14But if you harbor bitter envy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast about it or deny the truth.
15Such “wisdom” does not come down from heaven but is earthly, unspiritual, demonic.
16For where you have envy and selfish ambition, there you find disorder and every evil practice.
17But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere. 18Peacemakers who sow in peace reap a harvest of righteousness.
Psalm 6:6
I am weary with my sighing; Every night I make my bed swim, I dissolve my couch with my tears.
Psalm 69:3
I am weary with my crying; my throat is parched; My eyes fail while I wait for my God.

It shall not be this way among you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant,
Matthew 23:11
The greatest among you shall be your servant.
Mark 9:35
Sitting down, Jesus called the Twelve and said, "If anyone wants to be first, he must be the last of all and the servant of all."
Mark 10:43
But it shall not be this way among you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant,
Luke 9:48
And He said to them, "Whoever welcomes this little child in My name welcomes Me, and whoever welcomes Me welcomes the One who sent Me. For whoever is the least among all of you, he is the greatest."
May the Father bless and keep you all.
