I'll debate that last statement with you.Well my soul isn't up for a bet, because my soul belongs to God. With that said, if what you state as truth is plainly backed up by scripture, then you have nothing to be concerned about. If the recipient of said truth rejects it, then that's their problem. Its not my job to sit here turning the word of God into a matter of debate. Gods word really shouldn't even be up for "debate" to begin with.
I'll debate that last statement with you.
I come from a different cloth than some other Christians. From where I'm coming from, you either believe the Bible or you don't. When someone points out something in scripture that even a ten year old can understand, and you still claim "it doesn't say it", then its not my or anyone else's doctrine said person has a problem with, they have a problem with the scriptures themselves. We see this continually from certain members on here, and I really can't stand it. Its a waste of time even having a simple discussion with their ilk. There is nothing more you can possibly do for them.
So what you are saying here is that you have a lack of empathy......
How do you proceed with your sanctification with no empathy and no idea of its central role in Christianity and redemption?
My empathy has nothing to do with the truth. The truth is the truth, it doesn't adhere to your emotions. If you preach the truth to an unbeliever for instance, which is Jesus Christ, then they will either accept it or they won't. You did your part, the rest will be up to God.
Oh my.....
If you think empathy is restricted to emotion, we are on different pages. The only truth we need to cultivate and practice continously is love - it is our sanctification and our reason for existing. Doctrine is as important as shoes are to a marathon runner; it will help you get to the finish line, but it will not win the race for you.
There are no armchair Christians
Jesus Christ is the truth, and he doesn't need "cultivating" from me or anyone else. He is the reason why you exist. God loves you, but it doesn't mean much in of itself. He would have never wasted his time creating us to begin with without his atonement. The me're concept of love doesn't change that. I can show "love" to a degenerate dirt bag until the moon turns blood red, it won't make him or her any less a degenerate dirt bag.
Because many believe that their "revelation" is the only right revelation.
We all should be "happy" to be "proved" wrong, as some of our dross has been removed. Sadly, many opponents play the person rather than the content, their input is no use, even as bile.
Are you willing to bet your soul on what you teach on these forums..
You are actually arguing against Christianity
Jesus created us to love. The sum of the law is to love. Unless you become perfect at loving God and others, you remain in your sin - sin is the misuse of love. This is Christianity!
Unless Jesus Christ died and rose again to put away sin, the creation remains in sin, now and forever. My love has nothing to do with it.
lol, pray it with me then "we thank you God, that we are like these other people" lolI come from a different cloth than some other Christians.

proselytizing is a demonstration of "come here and let me love you, you degenerate dirtbag" lolYou are actually arguing against Christianity

Yes! Absolutely! Unfortunately, many, many, many Christians have convinced themselves that knowledge of doctrines and scripture comprises Christianity......when it comes to loving others, they’ve tried nothing and remain void of ideas....
the warning is plainly documented in Scripture, "you make them seven times the son of hell you are," "having nowhere to go he returns and brings with him seven worse spirits," all pointing to the dangers of identifying with Christianity for easy personal gain, which is what we all do first right.Yes! Absolutely!
