    Some Truisms for those New in the Faith

    I liked the way that you said :- We hear, and see so much on here which would lead us to somehow believe that instead of The Lord Himself being the central theme it is sin which is of the major importance! :rolleyes: I like a little line I hear decades ago.... "If we are focused on Him we...

    When is a christian NOT a Christian?

    A perfect illustration of carnal christianity. :) I believe they are still saved, still "christians" but as the book of Revelation shows, they lose the reward they would have received. So in fact, they judge themselves. :( Is not this a good example of 1) doing what the flesh wants to do (...

    When is a christian NOT a Christian?

    Great post. Thanks. I believe that since the cross most judgement is redemptive...judgement come, ( we reap what we sow) so that the soul may yet be saved. I am not one for all this 'going to hell' business ...God's judgement is to judge to bring forth life. But, that is another topic and...

    When is a christian NOT a Christian?

    Thanks for your post. I was actually asking when a person can be told by another, that they are not a Christian. This came from a conversation with someone, ( who had been told that they were not) .... I liked lforrest/admin post....siting the difference between church outside this site, and...

    When is a christian NOT a Christian?

    Interesting. So you do not see a difference between carnal Christians , baby Christian , and mature believing believers? You feel that they were not Christians at all? I believe they were ...I do not believe that the ground opened and dropped them into hell. I believe they sold their...

    Long time no see....glad you and the family are well...they for sure keep you busy :) APAX was answering honestly from his heart ....he was speaking ‘for him’....as I have asked everyone to do. I thought his post was a good and well balanced of what ‘he’ sees and believes is a Christian ...

    When is a christian NOT a Christian?

    Thanks Rita. I hope you got a good heavy sleep after posting so late...I am just headed to bed myself here ...you will soon be getting UP! I agree with you that ‘some’ have the weight of legalism that they try to pass on to people. The experience you quoted about a new believers testimony...

    Some Truisms for those New in the Faith

    EXCELLENT , and well said. ( except one line....but what’s one line among friends...it was worth a ‘like’ even though. ( I see all judgement in Fathers hands , the Son coming to receive His Kingdom ....but it’s just all words really ...) Good post .

    When is a christian NOT a Christian?

    Josho and rockytopva are , but so many of the 'Encounter Team' don't come on here much. The regulars on here that I would recommend to talk to , would for me be @Hidden In Him and @Episkopos @amadeus ...you would need to talk to someone who checked in here often, and they pretty much do...

    When is a christian NOT a Christian?

    Thanks for the response. So..what would cause you to draw a line in the sand and say that someone was not a true Christian? What words, teaching , or actions of somebody would make you say- "You are not a true Christian because of this and that and the other." ( I am also thinking of forums...

    Agree, the only way you can find anything now, is to click on "recent activity" on a persons profile page...or on your own. Very annoying, but at least it is something

    All cultures accepted...except the Southern.

    This is probably off topic...if so ignore. But I remember reading once that Texas was actually a country because it never did sign something ( forgotten what) I also read ( maybe at the same time) that the province of Alberta ( Where I live) had also never signed some government thing...and it...

    POSTINGS???

    I am guessing @lforrest didn't see my tag when he was on earlier. Sometimes tags work, and sometimes they don't. It is annoying for me though. Whenever I want to find a certain thread, as long as I know who started it, I can /could go into their profile and check their threads and find it. I...
