I did not intend to judge, surprizing how it comes out that way but what I'm saying is wen we judge others as not of God, we judge ourselves, not discerning them as members of the body of Christ. I don't judge you as not of God because the more I go on, I don't Judge. Though I was warning you about judging others. I live in a recovery center and have learned the hard way not to judge even unbelievers here, yet I can't fellowship with them. I came to see literally like you, that "For this cause we both labour and suffer reproach because we believe Jesus is the saviour of all men especially of them that believe. Those under the law would oppose this, yet God is still their saviour, this is where we differ. That we shall all give account of ourselves to God. So ya am actually warning you about judging yourself harshly, you make me think of Peter a natural overconfident leader, and you already would know not the ask, "what about John, "If I let him live until I return what's it to you, you follow me."

Bro....it is not umbiblical to JUDGE ALL things by the word of God....up to and including one's dogma, what they belief, what religion they espouse and or what they say in here......when one devalues the blood of Christ, the works of Christ, the promises of Christ, the power of Christ, denies verb tense, the very verbiage of the bible, context and then say that they MUST help JESUS get them across the finish LINE I will, without remorse, and or without regret believe and say that they are false and not of GOD.......
It's gonna be 0 degrees overnight here.. eye yi yi..

If the church in Ephesus was done with their salvation as the OSAS group claim, what's the sense of admonishing them to REPENT and OBEY what they heard and received, and warning them that if they don't wake up He will be coming like a thief?
If what Jesus finished on the cross is "SALVATION", then He will no longer come a second time to bring salvation to those who are eagerly awaiting for Him, those who will be presented to Jesus as a pure virgin and to God, holy, unblemished and free from accusations.
... I promised you to one husband, to Christ, so that I might present you as a pure virgin to him. But I am afraid that just as Eve was DECEIVED by the serpent’s cunning, your minds may somehow be LED ASTRAY from your sincere and pure devotion to Christ.
...But now he has reconciled you by Christ’s physical body through death TO PRESENT YOU holy in his sight, without blemish and free from accusation—
Aren't you RUNNING AHEAD of everyone else? Or have you reached the GOAL apart from the Body of Christ of which He is the savior?
...For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. Ephesians 5:23
...And this is love: that we walk in obedience to his commands. As you have heard from the beginning, his command is that you walk in love. ANYONE WHO RUNS AHEAD and does not continue in the teaching of Christ does not have God; whoever continues in the teaching has both the Father and the Son. 2 John 1:6,9
I'll stop here and maybe wait for your rejection or hopefully for a humble acceptance of the Word.
James 1:19-27. Thanks and God bless.
