Forget? Or could it be zelous attempts to correct faulty or incorrect Christian doctrine? If someone posts that they do not worship Mary, but only pray to her, would it not be a good thing to point up that prayer, like singing hymns and supporting our congregations with money, is a distinct form of worship? And Jesus very clearly told us that we are to worship only God, and no other.I fear there are a LOT of people who think they are Christians, and who profess that they believe in Jesus, but who in reality do not even know Him. They have chosen the broad way rather than the straight and narrow way. That is a very sad situation.Rank Stranger

All those verses in the bible basically are saying that one should wake up and know the truth, thus they will get along if they know it. That's different than compromising for the sake of unity or so-called love.Actually the bible allows a Christian to disfellowship with another so-called Christian if they do not straighten their act. The fact that we are all here talking with each other shows there is more tolerance in debate than if we merely turn a cold shoulder (which is actually scriptural). However, there are a small minority of people I put on my banned list. I am very tolerant of people even if I do not agree with much of what they say. But for someone to end up on my banned list have to show themselves an ace backhold with obviously nothing worth saying even if they think otherwise.
