Now I am not only not Christian . . . I am of Satan? What's next . . . burning at the stake? As long as you believe in Jesus and you direct your life according to his example you will have no quarrel with this "spokesman of Satan" . . . regardless WHY you do so. How have I tried to lead anyone away from the truth of God or Jesus, Robin? I have only chastened you to stop judging and condemning others for not being Christians and not believing in Jesus CORRECTLY . . . according to YOU . . and pretending it is tough love! You are more apt to be leading many away from God and the truth by your attitude and behavior toward others . . . be careful what you accuse others of . . . it has a habit of backfiring. Judge by the fruits . . . not the intent . . . the road to hell is paved . . .
Mystic have you repented and surrendered to Christ?
No that's pragmatism and very dangerous in Christianity.
I apologize to both you and Stirringwaters for my part.
Oh, Robin...that's kind of you. I just hurt reading brothers at each others' throats without end. Questioning salvation. Has anyone prayed about anyone else? Asked God for some settlement in the matter? Peace of mind, maybe? Something? I've been where you all are...I feel for you. That's all. I shouldn't have said anything... I'm sorry for that.

Stirringwaters, I pray for Mystic and Goodpasture every night that the Holy Spirit will convict them and follow the straight and narrow path that you so delicately walk.

Actually Robin, it isn't your posts that are disturbing me.
It is mostly Mystic's and Goodpastures....and their apparent dislike of the inspired scriptures. I feel that 'discussing' with them is like beating a dead horse!

That's not what I meant... I meant do you pray that the Lord will lead you... That He would let you know where others stand with Him. You could be praying for something they already know, have, etc. Sometimes we need to ask if we're looking at someone wrong. I've done it...been severely wrong... I try not to do that anymore, although I do fail miserably sometimes. lol
I thank both of you and I believe I can speak for Fundy when I say we have been praying constantly not only for our seeming adverseries but for our own guidance and the guidance for all seeking the true path.

I agree Marian...I think Fundamentalist, RobinD69 and DOTL are 'right on'. They speak the truth.

You can keep repeating that I dislike the INSPIRED (NOT dictated!) scripures all you like . . . but it is WRONG. I do NOT dislike scripture . . . I dislike YOUR reading and interpretations of them FOR ME and MY relationsjhip with Jesus. As long as they work for YOU to build YOUR relationship and live in Christ . . . I am OK with that. We do not need to agree with each other to love and live in Christ (as long as that translates into actual loving attitudes and "works" . . . not just "lip service.") You can continue to see the scriptures as DICTATED . . . I see them as INSPIRED and recorded by very ignorant and barely civilized humans.

I am so glad to hear that!
I am not taking any sides here...I feel for all of you.
