We are given this precious gift to love God and others as God has so loved us, all of us thru Jesus Christ.
like i said, it does get to be straining camels for gnats when i read things,my perspective, does that mean im a heretic or ignorant or deceived now? i just add to the threads as everyone else is led by what they believe, not to attack nor denounce anyone yet i seem to get alot of critism at times from some for doing so.
Love how Jesus said "woe when all men speak good of you, for so did they with the false prophets" gives me encouragement that not all do speak good of me, even at my own church i attend bro, some see things for gnats and i dont yet i show them respect love and honor that they are, like me, created by God.
i apologise to anyone who reads this and feel offended at times with my posts, to me - Its all about Jesus, the love poured out to all flesh thru Christ as His declaration in blood of that love being made manifested at calvary

Lol Sorry for getting you frustrtated, I apologise for that. What I am saying is yes we love everybody, even our worst enemy, infact do as much good you can for your enemy. However, as I say I don't think you realize the difference between loving your enemy and standing shoulder to shoulder with those who profess Christ yet Deny His Diety.
It is not that we still don't love them, that is not the issue in the debate, I still love them, but I will not stand idly by and let themespouse heresy especially the very foundation of Christianity.
So the argument is not love each other as that is a given, the argument goes deeper, it goes to the very core of who God is. They deny the very subtances of God, The Godhead, triunity. This is the Christian God.
It is through the utmost love that Christians speak out against these heresies consumed. It is because we care enough to speak against falicies. and not just on this board, it has been since the NT times.. Just reading the Epistles we can see this. It is through love!
