Foolish man who looks at outward appearance.
Can't believe that you would say that since you base your theology purely on outward appearance.

Agreed.
A statement of faith, of which you speak is of no value because it comes from the mouth and not the heart.
When have I ever mentioned a statement of faith?
You people are going to end up in the lake of fire with that amount of false doctrines and evil, greedy, selfish doctrines.
You sound awfully judgemental for someone who claims that faith is not necessary for salvation when the Bible clearly states that we are saved by faith and not by works.

You need a lesson in reading and understanding. My reply was to Eladar. Take you time and read these forums and read over the Bible.

Ok. I have read the Bible. Would you care to explain to my why you accept certain parts of the Bible and yet you reject other parts of the Bible?

Liberals are such hypocrites. Most of the time they think they are doing the right thing carrying out Satan's lies.
Originally posted by Fetchmyjunk I don't think gross generalizations are always helpful.
I don't think it is incorrect. Jesus didn't pull punches with the hypocrites. The blind are blind. No hope for them, nor does Jesus want the vipers to repent.

2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slow to fulfill His promise as some understand slowness, but is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.
Were you not also 'blind' before you 'saw', or have you always seen the light?

I have always been a Christian.
I have never been a liberal. I have always recognized evil as evil.

I think you are spending to much time looking for worthy sinners than Jesus who died
for all of us if this is your mindset. Should everyone who Jesus died for be someone
we try to reach for His sake, not because they are worthy, or has a good track recorded
but because Jesus died for them?

So therefore you now think you are better than them?
If you have always recognized evil as evil does that mean you have never sinned or have you done evil even after recognizing it as evil?

Not better inherently, but better in that I know God's truth and can recogmize sin? Sure

As far as never sinning, read Romans and how if you do what you do not want to do, then you are not sinning.
