-Removed-No he attempted to insinuate that I was not a true Christian because I called people names in the clan forum. I merely pointed out that Jesus, a true Christian, also called people names refuting his silly assertion. You have already admitted that Jesus followed his own teachings, making him a true Christian by definition or if we prefer your definition a false Christian by virtue of him being a Jew and thus a non Christian.
-Removed-He likes to believe his own propaganda. The clan forum is there for calling people names and goading them - he has nothing, no moral sway, nothing. He was reduced to taking statements out of context and attempting to vilify me, He failed, he always fails, he's like Wiley. E. Cayote trying to catch the road runner.
I don't think my behaviour is non Christian after all Jesus and Paul also called people names. Then of course that would make you a professed true Christian guilty of non Christian behaviour too.
The word 'Christian' now has very little real meaning as far as I can tell. Modern Christianity is now the most profitable money making business on Earth, rife with false doctrines, greedy pastors, worldliness and all manner of depraved evildoing. Maybe that is why Christ never used the word 'Christian' to start with, and neither did Paul.
There are only true followers of Christ and these are going to enter into the Kingdom of God. False worshipers [worshiping who or what I do not know] will get desstruction. The true followers are called disciples by Christ and saints by Paul and the Apostles. So who is going to enter Gods Kingdom will be known when the time comes but the Bible does give potential candidates a very good idea:
Christ said:
John 8:31 .. If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed.
Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me. Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink? When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee? Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee? And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me. (Mat 25:34-40)
The rest of mankind will be destroyed.

Here is another interesting verse which has a direct bearing on the matter.
My Father is glorified by this, that you bear much fruit, and so prove to be My disciples. - John 8:31
