Are You Just Another Fake Christian?

[st3712]

Indeed, I am!

A certain saying from the Desert Fathers also comes to mind:

Once, brethren who had heard of his virtue came to Abba Agathon to see if they could make him lose his temper. They asked him, “Are you Abba Agathon, a fornicator and a proud man?”
“Yes, that is true,” the Saint replied.
“Are you the Agathon who is always talking nonsense?” the brothers inquired.
“I am,” the Saint agreed.
“Are you Agathon the heretic?” the brothers persisted.
Abba Agathon said, “I am not a heretic.”
They asked him why he agreed with them when they accused him of vices, but then denied this last charge. Agathon replied, “I accepted the first accusations, since that was beneficial for my soul. But heresy is separation from God, and I do not wish to be separated from God.”​

If God is not within you then you are separated from God.
Therefore your justification is meaningless.

It was not the question to you I needed an answer for. It was your reaction to it. That is lot of fear and anxiety for one(or more than one) to carry. Perhaps the time has finally come, to enter in by The Door that is before you! Is not Love greater than a defeated foe. Does not perfected Love cast out all fear.

Why don't you speak to me from your own experience
then it will be from your heart.

Can you speak to me heart to heart?

I'm confused @st3712 as to why you have joined this forum. To fellowship but to ensure we are real Christians to prove we are worthy of your presence?...or to justify yourself in our sight to prove your worthiness of our presence?

We are seeing a good example of trolling in this thread, but people are continuing to feed the troll. Not a good idea.

Perhaps you 're right... what can I say... God, be merciful to me, a sinner!

No one has posted anything to you.
By the way why are you trolling my thread?

Why ask God to do that to which He has already done for you?
You live in the mercy of the Lord.
For now anyway.

 

[st3712]

Since Christians are strictly accountable to God and Christ, you should not even be asking such presumptuous questions.

This you have said is incorrect.
I am sure you say a lot of things that are incorrect
everyday in your life.

...saying who is a true christian and who is not...is running close to breaking the forum rules.

Who made anyone judge and Jury. There is ONE God.

The ONE God.

This poster identifies himself as a Christian, but knows nothing.

I accept your challenge what are your terms?
You tell me your terms then I will tell you mine
and we shall see what God will do concerning it.

 

[st3712]

It is not wise to challenge me
for I shall surely call your hand.

And I never come out of the Light.

Are You Just Another Fake Christian pretending to be a true Christian?
If you are a true Christian and not a fake Christian,
explain to me what exactly it is about you that differentiates you
from any of the fake Christians.

I KNOW
I KNOW

I don't go around wondering who's really saved and who isn't.

That's God's job, and believe me, He could have it !
So, what makes YOU think you know the difference between a true Christian and a fake Christian?

When Jesus was on earth...
Where was the 2nd person of the Trinity?

 

[GodsGrace]

You are plainly wasting both your time and my own...and I suspect everyone elses.

I bid you adieu! A la prochaine!

It is not for YOU or any other fallible human being to know the hearts of others. That would make YOU God. It is unfortunate that many "fake" Christians do exist but, do YOU want to be their judge? Are you that sure? Outwardly, obviously a "fake" Christian will look like a "true" Christian. We can know them by their fruits...or do you have a better idea than how the Word tells us to differentiate?? Then how are you going to KNOW that their fruits are not fake? Wanna judge those too?
Only God KNOWS for certain.

Oh gosh, PLEASE, NOT another one! It sure seems we are being assaulted from every nook and cranny lately. Why doe ANYONE even WANT to judge someone??? I sure do NOT want that job, lol.

That's what I was saying in the beginning. Don't feed the troll! Lol!

Psalm 100:5 "For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations." Our Great God's mercies do not cease. He does not change.

Did God send you to ask me this question?
