Re: The forces sweetheart in action.
Tansy, there will come a time, and it may not be too far away now, when you will realize that you are engaged in a fruitless debate with someone who will add nothing to your faith or understanding thereof, but will much more likely demoralize you if you persist in engaging with him.
Trust me chuck, 'trapper lite' ain't worth it. If he was a true servant of God, he would be doing everything in his power to encourage you, to build you up, to strengthen your faith - not cut you down. Search all his posts at will, and if you find even the merest hint of charity or grace, let me know.
God's children do not behave thus among themselves. By his own words, he marks himself out as our enemy, not our friend. He might yet become our friend one day, but for that to happen he would first have to undergo a genuine conversion, as described by Jesus in Jn.3.
To date, I've seen no evidence of such a conversion in his posts. He seems to delight in provocation just for the sake of it, and the only other person I know of who has made a career out of doing that to believers is most emphatically not our friend.
On the contrary, he is our mortal enemy. So tread carefully, and be aware of what you are dealing with.
