-Removed-and yet the Bible states, that Christians are a 'holy nation'. That either makes you a non Christian or a one man nation. Jesus himself stated you will know you are my disciples by the love you have among yourselves. Can you tell us how is it possible to you have love among 'yourselves', when you are only a single entity?

Does that always have to be considered a hateful judgmental attack?

By praying in small communities. "The Church" during those times consisted of "wherever two or more are gathered in my name" and it was they who kept the faith. If they could do it, you can, too.
Looking again at this post I think I may have responded too hard on it. Moonbus here did not say every gathering of two or three was "a church".
Sorry moonbus.

-Removed-here are your words, Being part of a "group" has no appeal to me and now you are saying that you are not a single entity. You are not making much logical sense. This has nothing to do with my religious disposition as you once again falsely claim, but everything to do with you not making any sense. Are you or are you not part of a group?

-Removed-"Spirituality: Debate and general discussion of the supernatural, religion, and the life after." -Russ "Debate and general discussion" not overt public criticism of another person's volitional freedom to believe or not believe whatever he or she may damn well choose. Resolving significant differences in private represents the time honored principle of good manners, poise and respect for the privacy of other people. I have no "issue with rjhinds" or with any other human being which has not already been resolved in private messages, emails, phone calls or face to face conversation. Another principle is to keep short accounts with God [1John 1:9] and other believers in Christ. Since all of us are at varying stages of spiritual growth to maturity in acquiring the Mind of Christ, it's inevitable that we learn from each other: if we're objective and have our daily life priorities straight sans emotional fixations of other people and their real or imagined shortcomings. -Bob

Regardless of what you claim, I would suspect that Grampy Bobby knows what i actually said was correct. So you can pout and fuss all you want, but repentance is what you really need. 😏

Originally posted by Grampy BobbyI don't remember the exact words, since it has been awhile and he has been repeating his own versions of what I said for so long. However, he objects to me informing him that he deserves to be thrown into the Lake of Fire and Brimstone and needs to repent of his sins and believe all that Christ has said in order to be saved. He refuses to believe that onyone would be thrown into hell or the Lake of Fire and Brimstone to be punished forever and ever in contradiction to what I believe Christ has said.

Originally posted by RJHindsEven as an atheist, who doesn't believe in 'the lake of fire', 'i' object to you saying such a thing to another human being. Who are you to 'inform' anybody that they 'deserve' to go to hell; especially when you do believe such a place exists. As a Christian i think you should apologize immediately for those unwarranted comments. But hey, that's just the opinion of an atheist.
