Did the title get your attention? Good! I've noticed that when Christians get together to discuss the Word, very little Word actually gets discussed. Instead, if somebody disagrees with you they are wrong! They are heritics, blasphemers, they are anathema. Then they are accused of pushing some kind of 'Ism" Catholicism, Protestantism; Episcopalianism, Lutheranism, Methodism, Presbyterianism; Mormonism, Seventh-Day Adventism, Unitarianism; Shi’ism, Sufism, Wahhabism,
animism, apocalypticism, Calvinism, creationism, evangelicalism, fundamentalism, humanism, inerrantism, mysticism, occultism, Pentecostalism, premillennialism, Puritanism, revivalism, sacramentalism, secularism, shamanism, trinitarianism, unitarianism, Zionism,

The fact of the matter is....They have grown more than you have, or they have not grown as much, Their experiences are different from yours giving them a different view of the same thing, like facets of the same gem.

Who are we to condemn anybody simply for disagreeing with us? We don't act much like Christians. We act like cannibals looking to eat each other
What? You don't like me saying that? Then go talk to God about it. Not the god of pride but the ONE GOD

Your not wrong and some will get upset at this post but it's a truth that needs to be spoken. We who claim the title Christians are called to love and to be love, not love as the human heart knows but rather the kind of love that comes from Gods heart alone, It's easy to call oneself a Christian isn't it? But to show that one is a Christian isn't by the knowledge of scripture one has or having all the correct doctrines it' only by showing the love and grace that God has shown to us.

We all know the way to go but are we willing to put in the effort to walk in that way?

Romans 1:20-21 (CJB)

[SUP]20 [/SUP]For ever since the creation of the universe his invisible qualities — both his eternal power and his divine nature — have been clearly seen, because they can be understood from what he has made. Therefore, they have no excuse; [SUP]21 [/SUP]because, although they know who God is, they do not glorify him as God or thank him. On the contrary, they have become futile in their thinking; and their undiscerning hearts have become darkened.

I too have been guilty of this

Forget doctrines of Sabbaths, works, Grace, sin, end times or what ever, get this right first before anything...


For the whole law is fulfilled in one word: "You shall love your neighbor as yourself." But if you bite and devour one another, watch out that you are not consumed by one another.

I do not believe the Christians are the most infantile and viscious people on the planet.

Rom 1:18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
Rom 1:19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
Rom 1:20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
Rom 1:21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
Rom 1:22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
Rom 1:23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
Rom 1:24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
Rom 1:25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
Rom 1:26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
Rom 1:27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
Rom 1:28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
Rom 1:29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
Rom 1:30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
Rom 1:31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
Rom 1:32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

Rev 13:4 And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?
Rev 13:5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.
Rev 13:6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.
Rev 13:7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.
Rev 13:8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

Mat 24:21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
Mat 24:22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.

Dan 7:23 Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.
Dan 7:24 And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.
Dan 7:25 And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.

Dan 8:23 And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up.
Dan 8:24 And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people.

The world is terrible.

Also there is no such thing as a hypocritical Christian,for if one is a hypocrite,they are not a Christian,and if one is a Christian,they are not a hypocrite.

Hypocrites do not void out Christianty,nor do they change it,for Christianity is the same no matter how people act.

Jesus said the hypocrites do not belong to Him,and do not belong to the Church,so their bad actions cannot reflect badly on the Church for they are not part of the Church.

While the world points their finger at a hypocrite,and says hypocrite,they are really pointing at one of their own kind,those of the world,that will not do right by God.

All the fighting,and hating,and different beliefs,has nothing to do with Christians that abide in the truth,and has nothing to do with Christianity,for that is of the world that likes to fight,exalt,cannot come to the truth,and want dominion.

The hypocrites are the world claiming Christianity,and like the world,they will fight,and argue,and push for dominon.

There is no such thing as a hypocritical Christian,and the gates of hell cannot prevail against the Church.

So the Christians are not the most infantile and viscious people on the planet,for those type of people are not Christians.

Modern day Christians worry excessively too much about being biblically correct. One can memorize the whole entire Bible from cover to cover and yet go to hell. Of course Bible knowledge is important, but love, humility, faith, etc, are key in our walk with God.

Well.....a couple of points to ponder......

a. It is not unbiblical to judge any and all doctrines pushed by anyone according to the word....as a matter off act we are instructed to try the spirits and see if they be of God or not.

b. Not everyone who names Christ is Christian......

c. No one likes to be wrong and very few will openly admit error

d. ALL assume they are being judged and sometimes this is true, but when a particular doctrine is being judge it is not the person being judged per se, but rather something they have said and or implied

e. At the end of the day....until JESUS sets it all straight there will be disagreements, arguments and heated discussions concerning the word........

Let love cover a multitude of sin the bible states......as believers we seem to fail in this area....I know I pour heat upon the handful I disagree with and a lot of times we are reactionary to the verbiage that gets fired at us from whoever is firing it....it seems this happens on all sides of the coin......I have been guilty myself....I will try and do better........!

Here is a good definition of a Christian... Christ... I... Am... Not!... He is our perfect example... Are we perfect?... No way!... I am an imperfect Christian first and my denomination comes second... Is it perfect?... No way!... Because like it our not, every church on the face of this earth is imperfect... But it seems our nature is that we want to throw everyone not like us under the self righteous religious bus... This battle is nothing new... The Jews thought they were better than the Gentiles and after a while the Gentiles thought they were better than the Jews... Scripture state "Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of Man!"... Brother Glen

Instead, if somebody disagrees with you they are wrong! They are heritics, blasphemers, they are anathema. Then they are accused of pushing some kind of 'Ism" Catholicism, Protestantism; Episcopalianism, Lutheranism, Methodism, Presbyterianism; Mormonism, Seventh-Day Adventism, Unitarianism; Shi’ism, Sufism, Wahhabism,
animism, apocalypticism, Calvinism, creationism, evangelicalism, fundamentalism, humanism, inerrantism, mysticism, occultism, Pentecostalism, premillennialism, Puritanism, revivalism, sacramentalism, secularism, shamanism, trinitarianism, unitarianism, Zionism,

Well speak for yourself denadii. Aren's you the guy who said this: "If Christ means the anointed one...and we are anointed...then we are christis.. The anointed ones." And aren't you the same guy that does not know the difference between the words "fighting" and the word, "discussing?" And are't you the guy that told me that I don't have the authority of the Holy Spirit like the Apostle Paul who names names at for example 2 Timothy 2:15-18.

Remember, you didn't like the idea that I was naming names of heretical teachers like the wof teachers that teach we are little gods and little christs? Why is it in your mind you consider someone is a bigot or even more importantly "unloving" for telling the truth? And btw, this is not about simply "disagreeing" with people but rather about exposing people for speaking lies and upsetting the faith of others. 2 Timothy 2:18. Lastly, please read what Jesus said to the Jews at Matthew 23:27-37 and tell me if He was unloving? So denaii, did I get your attention? :eek:

IN GOD THE SON,

Yes there is such thing as a hypocritical Christian and i only know because I know me. Do you know how many times I tell people to believe what God says about them and believe what he sees when he looks at them and yet when i look at myself I myself cannot take my own advice? Or how often i warn others of allowing their emotions to control them and yet here are plenty of times when I do the very same thing? Or how often I give correction to others on here to be still as waters and to respond in a loving mature manner yet there are plenty of times when I myself am lacking in this area?

I am in fact a major hypocrite.

I dunno, I think people get too worked up over disagreements on this forum : p

I mean some people go too far sure, but like I hang out on many forums, and on each one of them major fights that last for months break out. Ive even seen one that lasted a year over whether or not a character from a video game was overrated.

Im not exaggerating. It even tore the forum in half, and a large group of the members went off and formed their own chat room because of it.

People argue over dumb things, this is in no way exclusive to Christians : p If you get into a debate, it can totally get you emotional. But leave it where it sits, dont take it around the forum with you : p
