Ha! Finally "got" the uffa. :) Never seen it before...
Had to find out...I will notch that one up for future use. :)
>Oooh. I forgot to explain it to ya.
Mostly it's a sign of frustration.
But it could be other things too.
You could tell by the context....

Do we know what an Emergent Christian is?
Emergent is kind of like Emerging?
Or is it something totally different?
I guess Prof. Google would know, but I hate bothering him.

Oh the churches are "alive and well" here in the city. :rolleyes:
Bad news in my book and makes mockery of the true Church...whatever that is any more!! EeeeKkkk!
No wonder bbyrd009 doesn't want to be called a Christian...
Obviously it ( Emergent) is catching the young people most of all. Sad day.
Yep...'Jesus wept.'

I praise God for you sister. I don't doubt your salvation and walk with God. But, how do you know that persons have fallen away? What determines, to you, that they are going to hell?

Ooooh. You'll never hear me saying someone is going to hell.
I like to call it the hot place. Hell is too ugly of a word.

How could we know who's going to the hot place? They could become saved in the last 10 minutes of their lives.

It's when someone speaks to you about God and SEEMS to be following Jesus and then one day they tell you they no longer believe, for whatever reason. Usually troubles. They make you more of a believer or maybe no longer a believer.

Didn't Paul and the other N.T. writers beg us to follow a Christianly life and not to fall away? I could post scripture galore, but it's almost 1 am here. We could go at this more tomorrow.

Do you believe if a person falls away, they were never saved to begin with?

That is very late...or early. I will address this to you tomorrow.

don't go to google
you'll only end up with nightmares on this one

Too late for me. Been there done that.
Way back when it was "emerging" my daughter gave me a book to read on the Emergent Church saying- " Can you read this for me, I don't have time.."
So I read the book written by someone who had 'emerged' ...( sounds like something slithering out of a pond...and probably is!!)
My grand daughter had heard of this 'new' church at that time...and my daughter wanted to have answers up her sleeve if ever her daughter asked any questions.

Or they could be lost in the last ten minutes, right?

Tough to answer without a complete study
Their ways are so subtle, they make you feel guilty if you don't agree with them
And they throw Scripture at you til you don't know if you coming or going.
