That is not factual. Much of what you state falls under that same definition. You try to take back you actual insults with alarming regularity which only serves to give notice to your hoof in mouth compulsion.
There it is H&H, the adage, "women hate people , men hate things" appears to arise.
If an event caused by a person offends another, the woman will tend to blame the person, the man will blame the event.
Men react with reason, women react with emotion, if you want a reasonable decision, you don't use emotion.
Looking at the time and energy put in #49, I give thanks I am not under that roof.
The curse Eve put on women for the original sin?
best wishes brother
How many people are you? You give advice as to how others should post yet you go out of your way to stick your nose in other peoples bizz. Actually that seems to be what you do often enough. Take your own advice and act in a way that does not give the lie to what you say you believe.
Oh my, no love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, faithfulness and selfcontrol in that one.
Eve wasn't Christian, she long before Christ.
She walked with God in the garden every evening. She knew things you will never know on this earth. Maybe I do too. We each have our own walk with God and mine does not include mocking other believers or thinking they are one upping them.
I forgive you Mr Shittim. You are only hurting yourself here. You are exposing your actual walk with God and it is not the tidy advice giving alternate personality you wish others to respect.
Brother Tim is an acquired taste but i see a future between you and Ed.
Maybe i'm an optimist.
Back to Topic!
Proverbs 4:23
23 Guard your heart above all else,
for it determines the course of your life..../NLT
23 Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life..../KJV
Why should we diligently guard our hearts? And how?
What you think about it the key. If looking at a woman in lust and thinking about being with her makes you an Adulterer already, then we are going to be judged on our very thoughts. Am I right?
Having an impure thought is not a sin. It's what we do with that thought when it comes to mind that is either released or turns to sin if you entertain that impure thought and think about it and give it your time.
2nd Corinthians 10:5
5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;.../KJV
So as soon as the thought occurs to you, you can react. Where did that come from? I reject that thought and take it captive to the Lord Jesus, in Jesus name, and release it and don't think about it anymore. If you entertain an adulterous thought it opens the door of your heart to receive the spirit of lust and you have a spirit of lust seed within you, that will grow into a root of lust and finally a tree of lust that will consume your life (Proverbs 4:23). So by taking the thought captive to the Lord and rejecting to entertain the thought then it will not leave the door open for it to damage your heart. You have therefore, guarded your heart!
Ok great, it worked, but what do I think about now? I'm glad you asked because the word of God is very clear about that.
Philippians 4:8
8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things..../KJV
So I've given you, what not to think about and to think about. What does all that have to do with Gossip, anyway?
Gossiping is Impure Thoughts with an added dimension to it, Speech. And we all know that the power of life and death are in the tongue, right? So wouldn't gossiping even be worse than lustful thoughts? Someone brought t out of their heart to disparage someone, true not true doesn't matter, it's still disparaging someone and even Fellowshipping with others with mutual encouragement? It sounds worse to me. More dangerous. I just checked and it isn't in my Christian Job Description to pick specific people to disparage and curse with my words.
You better Guard your Heart!

Oh his name is Tim? My inclination is to avoid him anyway. As for Ed, perhaps if he gets over the hurt he might reconsider what he wrote. Maybe I'm an optimist.
I think if Tim were a chocolate and I had bit into it, I would return it to the box. Life should never be about those chocolates
Don't get so angry this early in the evening! You wont have any left for tonight!
Jesus became angry, He wept and even asked the Father if there was another way to die for our sins. In Psalms we read that we can pour out our heart to God.
Psalm 62:8
Is your heart cold and hard or do you also express yourself to God with emotion? Only you know.
weren't you going to leave a while back?
Just hadn't spread enough of your Christian joy?
How is expressing biblical truth so offensive to you? Paul states there is neither Jew or Gentil, male or female. Perhaps you have not got that far in your reading yet?
Mr Shittim has apparently conceived of 15,780 posts. A number of them are mocking me show no adherence to how he tells others to act.
So you cannot claim ignorance of what it is you are doing. You know you are being hurtful and unChrist like and have supported worldly thoughts regarding how men and women should be in this world.

That's the second time you took my words I spoke about you and tried to play a Reverse card on me with it. Sort of disingenuous I must say. I don't understand why you can feel offended. No one was talking about you. It was discussion about gossip when the statement was give that women gossip more. Women. Not you. Women. So why do you insist of taking a discussion between men and stapling it to your forehead and pretending that we are attacking you personally.
I thought you were done with this thread and didnt want to bicker with me anymore? What happened there?
