Lots of descriptions. All of which are really irrelevant as they are self proclaimed titles. All will reveal itself to the glory of God in the end.
I'll ask again. If claiming to be a "self proclaimed" Christian is meaningless, why do you proclaim yourself to be one and why do you go on and on and on about how other people who claim to be Christians are [in your view] not? If it's "meaningless", why is it so important to you?
If, as you claim, it is up to your god figure, why do you nevertheless go on and on about it day in day out? When you so blatantly do not leave the judging to your god figure, as is a tenet of your supposed faith, and instead judge others and say the most viscerally abusive thing that Christians can say to each other repeatedly, what reason does anyone have to believe that you are a Christian?

Originally posted by @eladar That's generally how most describe my beliefs.
Yes, but why do you insist on describing your beliefs with this term when you also insist that the term is meaningless? I am not asking about "most" people" I am asking you about you.

You wouldn't know God if he slapped you in the face. You give every Christian in this forum a bad name. If what you do in these forums is following Christ, you insult him.
Originally posted by @kellyjay The important question isn't what goes on between people, those that claim to be Christian or not. I can agree with each of them on specific points, but even that isn't as important as much as what you do with Jesus Christ! When God bottom lines your life are you really going to say, well those guys were arguing so I ignored you!?
If all the hipocrits a ...[text shortened]... e standing between you and God, you realize that means that they are closer to God than you are!
After I walked away from my computer and started thinking about this I want to apologies
to both Suzi and Eladar. I felt like my post was suggesting they were hypocrites, That was
not my intent, sorry to the both of you, my bad.
