Some people feel they have the right to dislike you.

Still awake?

I was until around ten am yesterday

1 Cor 8:1 Now concerning food sacrificed to idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge makes conceited, but love edifies. 2 If anyone thinks that he knows anything, he has not yet known as he ought to know 3 but if anyone loves God, he is known by Him.

Paul is dealing with their fear (concern) not the food itself.
You bring forth the first part but not the second.
You are trying to control what is coming at you with your strength and your wisdom.
Do you want to see your fear?
The good on the tree of death is still the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
When you think you know something you cannot love God the only way Paul says you can love Him.
It is in that 'but'.
Intercourse.
I am giving you this because of your 1 Jn 3:1 passage.

Fantastic

"Lead me not into temptation BUT deliver me from the evil one."
This but is conditional and everywhere in His word.

Choice is God's greatest gift.

God desires you to choose Him over everything He allows to tempt us.
This power is in you. Eph 3:20, 2 Tim 1:7 etc.

He led Jesus into the wilderness for this but on a scale that is unfathomable to human nature.
Fear will always lead (rationalize) human nature.
Because fear does not come from God.
Gen 3:9

I have fear because I walk this earth.
Romans 7:14-15
It is the fear of a lost relationship,
and He always takes it away.

Blessing be upon your heart.

It's human nature to hate, but it's also human nature to care...still, balance after all.

Human nature has much more to do with jealousy, envy, fear, and survival than it does hate. " Love" and "Hate" are on the same continuum.

You're a very wise man, Edawg.

I guarantee you some people dislike me for posting this. Who cares what they think they're gonna judge me anyways

No not at all it is just that most human beings try to convince themselves that they are something they're not and try defying the laws of nature.

You mean like jumping off the 10 story building and try to fly like superman and fly up up up.

We know we all know why posters/people in real life dislike me, because I’m very outspoken in general, but Pipe, why do posters/people not like you ?

Good question Jerky. As far as posters go that is their problem bro and I'm Just saying. If they like me fine if not I'm good too. There's probably a few here that don't like me for whatever reason and I'm okay with whatever. Not everyone is gonna like us. I'm definitely okay within myself honestly and that's what matters cause I know who I am. I'm a tough old fucker. I don't dislike anyone. To me I pretty much get along with everyone. This question can pretty much fall under many categories depending on the person in real life. Some people that I used to help that are not getting that help anymore. Some people that used me that aren't getting nothing anymore. Family cause me and wife and splitup. Or possibly just cause I have no hair on my and will say whatever I want when I want and how I want. This is just how I live overall generally. I'm the same way here as in real life.... Crazy as f***. It's fun being wild And no fucks givin But I also have a good heart too. That's what's messed me up in RL tbh man. It is what it is my brother. I'm far from perfect and I'm keeping it . One thing clear man God's got me. <--- This is all that really matters man.
