    When is a christian NOT a Christian?

    A Christian is a disciple of Christ (Acts 11:26). It is about that relationship and following Christ. When a person tries to make it about passing a theology test (like "you must agree with every line of X"), they're really missing the point. We aren't saved by our knowledge of God, but our...

    Hi.

    What you post is complete bunk. Frankly, I don't care whether or not you happen to agree with my beliefs or JW or Catholic or whatever. But you constantly not even bothering to respond to other people's actual posts or get your facts straight about what other people believe shows people that you...

    Hi.

    Vast majority of them-- including all the ones which actually talk about Christ. The only boards a "other faith" person can post on are 1) where people through rocks at you and 2) people try to convince you to "accept Christ" and completely ignore the fact that you have and it's the very...

    Hi.

    Rather than actually addressing our point's you instead try to distract with red-herring falsehoods. (We've discussed that not-remotely-banned video before, how every sentence of it is false down even the title is, and you still cling to it as if it were gospel). Anthony, you and your faith ar...

    Who is Nehushtan? Why isn't Christ Nehushtan? Why hasn't your pastor ever so much as mentioned...

    haha, I was called here. I'm going to break this up into different subjects. 1) LDS Christians believe that the resurrected Jesus Christ visited the people living in the Americas shortly have His ascension. He taught, and left. For a a few centuries the people follow His teachings, until...

    Hi.

    Where in the Bible does it say man is saved by his ability to pass a theology test about God? Is this test a multiple choice, fill in the blank, essay, or ??? Cause here I was think that a person was saved by the grace of Christ and embracing Him as their Lord & Savior.

    Hi.

    The Bible defines a Christian as a disciple of Christ. It's that relationship that is key. Not adhering to a post Biblical statement or our ability to pass a theology test.

    Hi.

    "Christian Forums" is a downright toxic and hateful place. Yes, they treated you unfairly and ignored the most important thing. They do that regularly. Many of us here have been on there and left (including myself). I got the whole "you're not a real Christian- don't you dare call yourself...

    What I actually believe -- sharing love of Christ

    Haha. I'm a person who find arguing about beliefs to be downright counterproductive. I LOVE coming to better understand other people's beliefs, and explaining my own. I think I understand yours here.

    Can you pray the "veil" away from someone who is unsaved?

    Praying for another person is always good. But God never forces a person to believe and accept Him. We need to remember that and not try to force things ourselves. We are not the ultimate witness of God's Truthfulness- that would be the Holy Spirit. Praying for yourself to have peace and...

    Why Do You Go/or not go to Church?

    Ideally it's a time/place to focus on God in a meaningful way. Realistically, that doesn't always happen (especially with kids). But it is still very important to go, commune with other believers (for everyone's benefit) and partake in the Lord's Supper. I would say that it is good to go to...

    Coffee Shop (let's chat)

    I don't drink coffee either, but find that "going to the coffee" shop to be common social gathering place to meet with people and catch up on things. I used to have a group we went weekly to a local place to write papers together (work thing). Hey, the barista even recognized me-- I was the...

    What I actually believe -- sharing love of Christ

    And read rests of God's apsotles/prophets words and diligently prayer/study myself. There's a LOT of bad information out there, some put out innocently, some with downright hatred. You'd be amazed how many times I've been asked how many moms I have, told I don't believe Christ is the Son of...

    Honestly that didn't help. Though I do appreciate the effort.

    What I actually believe -- sharing love of Christ

    Speaking my beliefs here: I do believe that he was a prophet of God. As to why you should believe: not because I said anything. Ultimately the testimony of the Truthfulness of anything should be borne from testimony of the Holy Spirit, not me or any other man. Totally cool I more provided it...

    What I actually believe -- sharing love of Christ

    Correct. Wait. Spirits those Christ's disciples that have passed on. Possibly, though I wouldn't assume anything by default. Well now you've met a such a person :). Obviously you don't have to agree with me-- your beliefs are yours. Exactly-- opening that gate. Not just for those that had...

    What I actually believe -- sharing love of Christ

    I don't quite understand your stance here. Every time a person or group learns something more, then they have learned something new to them. To not be learning something is to just not be learning at all and instead atrophy. It seems like total silence between man and God. Sorry if I'm being...

    What I actually believe -- sharing love of Christ

    Cool. LDS Christians honor the Lord's Supper, remembering Him and His sacrifice. Just not literally deifying the Supper. I'm totally cool acknowledging other folks positions o this matter, and as usual don't plan of trying to change anyone's mind. I'm just explaining my views here, totally...
