I read a story once (I believe it’s a true story) about a prostitute who arrived late for a church service. Her profession was obvious due to the way she was dressed.
All the people in the church were aghast when she walked into the church, and they gave her disapproving looks.
But one man, who was seated in the church with his wife and children, smiled warmly at her and invited her to sit with his family.
That man’s a real Christian.
This woman, who was obviously in search of the Lord (why else would she have gone to church?) may well have become saved that day due to the love of that man for her.
Think about how Jesus Christ treated sinners in the New Testament.
Then think about how you would have reacted if a prostitute walked into your church.
@pb1022 saidSounds about right.

In every church there is only a handful of followers of Christ
The rest are just professed Chrstians
All claim to be saved by Grace through faith
All claim to have the Holy Spirit.
All claim to be justified and sanctified
All claim to be in right standing with God
All claim to have a personal relationship with God
All claim to be born again
All make all kinds of ridiculous claims
Only a handful will keep the commandments of Christ
Only a handful will see the Kingdom of God.
@sonship saidI dont say anything. All I do is repeat what Jesus said.

Into the toilet with the rest of your corrupted thoughts about the Gospel.
flush / spray
If you ever say anything with life in it, I'll plant it in the garden.
You preach dead faith aka faith without works, aka faith without keeping the commandments.
Jesus and the Apostles preached the LIVING FAITH.
Faith with Works
Faith AND keeping the commandments
Jesus and all the Apostles said dead faith which you preach leads to damnation
The living faith leads to eternal life.
The righteous and wise among us ignore your teachings
Only fools follow false teachers like your type.
