nothing new

yeah i'm a jerk. that's not news.

i responded to this kid on instagram about a post on guess what. he said something like

you all need to agree with me because you look at the bible through calvinist lenses and you should look through arminian lenses and you will see that men choose God freely!

i said

no one is free. we are all slaves to sin, dead in sin, unwilling and unable to please God. 

he said

but the arminian lense! 

i said

i don't care about your arminian lense. that's beside the point and it makes no sense anyway

then i of course got irritated. i don't do well with thick headed people who think they're actually intelligent. he went on about "lense" and i told him that didn't matter. it doesn't. scripture matters. he didn't get it. he wanted to talk privately. why? he asked about ezekiel 18.

so you think God doesn't want everyone to repent?

no. i don't. and i gave him a lot of verses. God hardens men. he hardens nations. he doesn't want some people to repent (1 Sam 2: eli's sons) his response: CONTEXT! i told him that's lazy. give me an actual argument. he never really gave me a response. he just whined and complained. wow. lol then he said i didn't give him a chance to respond. then he started talking in ALL CAPS. then i said, take a whole day to respond and he started recording voice messages (?) lol what the actual heck and sending them to me. then his
great
big
response
of
scripture
was

you are evil

he told me to read romans 12.17-21

Never pay back evil for evil to anyone. Respect what is right in the sight of all men. If possible, so far as it depends on you, be at peace with all men. Never take your own revenge, beloved, but leave room for the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” says the Lord. “But if your enemy is hungry, feed him, and if he is thirsty, give him a drink; for in so doing you will heap burning coals on his head.” Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

he's probably crying right now.
no i'm not nice. i don't like talking to dumb people who don't know they're dumb. i try but i don't do very well.

God help me
