No
But examine everything carefully; hold fast to that which is good.

For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus.

My childhood was dull.

No, the Greek lexicon meaning pretty much has it covered.
I liked to pwn Atheists. :lol: But, I've toned down debating quite a bit.
Now those who find out what it means just think I'm full of myself.
But, really, I think the truth just hurts such because they know I'm too good.

Me and a friend use to play wresting video games,we would create wrestlers then set-up matches with them and I created a wrestler that was supposed to be Undertaker and Kane's brother,called Abel,years later when I finally got on-line I needed a name but Abel was already taken,so I just added cainsbrother on the end.When I found out about atheists on-line I started engaging with them and I realized how appropriate the name is,especially when they mock me.I don't think they would really kill me like Cain did Abel but they've gotten pretty angry plenty of times so the name fits me now and I realized that God gave me the name a long time ago from creating a wrestler thinking up a Christian name,people may laugh but I do believe God gave me the name for my future discussions with atheists long before I did.The name fits well now because I really do care about atheists and try to reach them but they would slay me if they could just like Cain did Abel.I actually thought up the name because of Hebrews 11:4
Hebrews 12:2-3 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith;who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross,despising the shame,and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

2nd Corinthians 4:4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not,lest the light of this glorious gospel of Christ,who is the image of God,should shine unto them.

I've had my screen name since the 90s, back when AOL was a thing. The first time we signed on to the internet (with a dial up modem!) and had to come up with a screen name--we had no idea what a screen name was, and AOL recommended a letter and number combination--and this is what we came up with. My younger brother's name is Josh. He was born in March. My younger sister's name is Ashley. She was born in May. My name is Chris. I was born in October. So we combined it into a family screen name--JAC3510. Time passed, everybody eventually took their own names. I just kept it because I thought "Jac" was pretty cool. Started posting on AOL forums and a little later on Bolt.com. So yeah, just sort of stuck. :)

And that, brothers and sisters, is the kind of foolishness you get people who insist on denying biblical theism. A good illustration of any as the length people will go to avoid acknowledging basic truths.
