Hello homwardbound, I don't disagree with loving our enemies or guiding those whom we think are trolls. I even disagree with judging others saying they are trolls or no trolls, because that's irrelevant from my point of view. HOWEVER, one has to have this wisdom of when to stop talking n' when to say something. And what should be said and should not be said. We have to have this ability to see if the person we are talking to is open to listen or they're here only to argue, which means their heart n' mind are not ready yet to hear the word. So what we do is we did put the seed n' leave it up to God to continue at His own time. All of this is a gift from God who gives us with generosity His grace n' wisdom if we ask for them.
We can only guide people, we cannot change them. God is the only one who is able to change n' make from the rocks children for Abraham. So that's what I meant by my post to 1stStill_water. God bless.
