I do get out my friend . ANd by grace i can discern those who truly follow and those who were nothing more than i once was , LIP ONLY .
And i dont mean if one errs i automatically think they are false . NO . But you can see a difference
in those who are HIS verses those who are lip only . ITS THE FRUITS .
The Devil fakes Spiritual Fruit.
Its what his ministers do.
WHen i showed up here some months ago, i wrote a lot of Threads that taught how to "spot a heretic".
Here is how you do it.
You find out one thing.
Do they give all Credit To Christ for saving them and keeping them saved...
Now notice this part...>"keeping them saved"..
See.... the heretic, does not believe this, and can't.
And sometimes, once they are caught, on a forum, they will lie.
But generally, and most of the time, a heretic will spotlight themselves by not being able to give Christ ALONE, CREDIT for Keeping them saved.
Here is how a heretic sounds..
"well of course Jesus is the savior, but, there is more to it, then just JESUS......see, you have to....do, and do, and do, and then you have to be sure you dont do, and dont do.. And if you get all those "dos" and "don't's" worked out, you just might get yourself into heaven if you dont mess up.
or they sound like this..
"well sure i know that Jesus saved me, BUT..........BUT.............BUT..........BUT"...
So, see that "but"?
That is LEGALISM about to show you how to keep yourself saved, or not "lose" your salvation.
Thats a heretic, every single time.
And then there are the water baptized who are not born again, but think they are because they got wet, immersed, or sprinkled, when they were 2 yrs old, or similar.
