    When is a christian NOT a Christian?

    As I have already said. All these poster on this thread have FIRST responded to the opening post re who has the right to tell another person (that says that they are a christian) that they are not a christian . If you aren't gracious enough to first answer the topic, you have no footing to...

    When is a christian NOT a Christian?

    Another negative post from you. re the bolded words...If you had read this thread before posting, you would have found that it wasn't "for me"...so it matters little whether I 'would accept the beautiful post' that you did not write.

    When is a christian NOT a Christian?

    If all you want to do is pick apart other peoples posts , then please leave this Thread. And before you go, read post #11 by the Admin. You may either answer the question in the OP or not...but hitting at what others have responded is not up for debate. This is NOT a debate thread. Either...

    When is a christian NOT a Christian?

    IF you had bothered to read this thread you would have learned WHY this question was asked in such a way..( for someone else) But, you obviously didn't bother ... The question was if you had bothered to read deeper and further..."who or what, defines "christian" , and who has the right to...

    When is a christian NOT a Christian?

    True, but at least it give visiting readers both side of the issue at hand right. The 'challenge' doesn't have to be in the same spirit as the unpleasant post...but when it sadly is...it is no longer a challenge but an argument!! ( which usually goes around and around and around...as we have...

    When is a christian NOT a Christian?

    That is somewhat off topic on 'this' thread. But if you hunt through the old threads there are quite a few discussion about this. Just because you 'don't believe' that speaking in tongues is valid...does not change anything. You are free to believe or not believe what you like. But tongues is...

    When is a christian NOT a Christian?

    Really? I never knew that...back in England I was in a Pentecostal church for years...and I never heard that taught ....but who cares, it is not even biblical. I knew lots of people who attended who were wonderful christians and walked the walk but many never, spoke in tongues. I got baptised...

    When is a christian NOT a Christian?

    I still have one on ignore ...but if we just 'ignored' every negative thing...that would mean that there is not opportunity to balance it...as I said earlier...you had a nasty post which you did not see as you have the person on ignore. So it went unchallenged...if there is never any challenge...

    When is a christian NOT a Christian?

    Oh I totally agree. I learned that way back.. and it came in handy with my grandkids...especially in their teens when a couple of them 'got wild' and off the path badly. :( I still talked to them about the Lord as if they still cared. I'd still ask them to pray for me when I was sick...I acted...

    When is a christian NOT a Christian?

    What should 'make my laugh', but actually brings me almost to tears , is the fact that THIS THREAD that I started is all about one who calls himself a christian telling someone else that they are not! And here it is...illustrated for us all...in THIS of all threads!!! :eek: Gladly most who...

    Mark, what is happening to you? You are getting old and cynical these dayso_O You are turning into a heckler whenever you can. The thing is, you may ( or may not) be correct in some things you say...but you no longer post in a redemptive way...you don't post as if you care for anyone ...just...

    When is a christian NOT a Christian?

    The Father does have a mix of flavours here doesn't He. lol "To me" the son in the pig pen was still the fathers son...he was never un-son-ed he was just a stinking son...and the father watched for his son to return to his arms, daily. It is the light hearted flippant way that some are...
