For you and I that is true.....    as for planet earth......   not so sure.....     free will is running rampant here and we are instructed to pray that Gods will be done here for sometimes free will fails to do that.

Only speak/post the truth.

Whatever is not truth is worse than idle, it's deceptive.

Problem is that we seldom agree on what actually is true and what is not.......     I would wager that you and I might even not even agree on what protocol to use to tell if something is true or just perceived to be true.....       and sooner or later the place will close down because no one can actually prove much of anything.....     so we sit here looking at last months posts for I can't be sure this cup of coffee in my hand is real or imagined

 

The truth needs no validation, only people do.

Most debates, and idle cross-talk is about self, not truth. 

 

I have seen many truths stated here in WCF, only to be steamrolled over by self-debating parties.

It saddens me to know that so many miss the point.

 

I find it kind of sad that you expect everyone to see things through your paradigm...     Most of the disagreements I see here come from approaching things from different directions...     and I've been here for a really long time.   The disagreements go on and on and on because two people say this is true and you are wrong......    over and over and over.....

 

So  When we disagree on something expect me after a post or two to just say I disagree and let it go.....   like right now...

I often think about that passage. It sometimes gives me anxiety. I know that I, especially before I started reading the Word of God, constantly spoke evil. I am the chief of sinners. And now I see that we are rendering an account for every idle word. 

 

BTW, as for what is true:

 

The Truth is a double edged Sword. True wisdom has two sides. Often people argue over which side of the wisdom is true, not realizing that they are both right and don't see how both of the things they are saying are true.

 

It's like this:

 

"Only those who persevere to the end will be saved" - Armenian

"Everyone who is saved perseveres to the end" - Calvinist

 

They are saying the same thing

"Whoever confesses with their mouth and believes with their heart will be saved" - Eternal security

 

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. - John 3:16

 

The only way we know something is true is if God said it

 

Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?

I have seen people spend half an hour arguing the exact same thing because they didn't realise. Essentially they had different definitions for a particular bit of christian jargon which caused the problem. When I suggested they were arguing the same thing I was very quickly told I was wrong. Half an hour later they came to the truth which is that they agreed with each other. So how do you propose to stop them from only speaking truth? Sorry but it isn't always easy to discern.
