The good news that God is not holding the sins of anyone against them does seem to offend some Christians in a big way.
Yes it does, just like when Jesus went around doing good to those who in the eyes of the many were not right with God, so how could he do such good things to them, never mind meet with them where they were, when they were not right with God. That same sentiment is embedded in evangelical christianty
The gospel involves the fact that we can be born again to eternal life with God through Jesus' death for sins and faith in Jesus.
Where does Jesus teach such a thing?. He spoke of a kingdom that could not only be seen but entered in through spiritual wakening. This is what he was telling Nicodemus even though like many today he had no idea what Jesus was meaning by being born again. Nicodemus came to Jesus and flat out told him what we are seeing in you is God without a shadow of a doubt, and Jesus' response was, Nicodemus you would not recognize this if you were not spiritual awakened, unlike the many who remained in darkness because they refused to see what they were beholding was God....... Have i been so long with you and you don't recognize what you are beholding is your Heavenly Father(God)?.
That's not really accepted here...this board's form of Christianity is 'agape love'. The agape loving posters may come off a bit hateful most times but that's the conservative Christian posters' fault.
Hey up Sophia's Mommy, how are you?,did you give any consideration to the things said to you yesterday. I just want to add too, i formerly believed like you and most on here, i di didn't fall way, i simply began looking at what i was believing and why, and not only was much of what i believed contradictory but really had no solid scriptural foundation,not that it needs to be, but that is important to me knowing the scriptures point to Jesus Christ.

You what?, don't mistake rejecting the doctrine of men to being hateful, are you really such a delicate little thing that you can't handle a few home truths?.
Then make sure you're listening to the one that leads you to your love, joy and peace and not to your hell, and trust that the God who is love is capable of leading others as well.
What do you mean by this? Jesus said, "I am the way..." not a way, the way. You seem to ascribe to some sort of morally relativistic form of Christianity that is very self serving.
