So, if you will excuse me for calling your hypocrisy out, but you are breaking your own Scripture.
No, judgment of salvation should be left to God. The world judges everyday, (if three black men approach you on a dark street corner, did you not just judge?) we have prisons because we judge, we all judge including yourself therefore you are the hypocrite and you are breaking your own scripture that you have not interpreted correctly. Jesus said, do not judge hypocritically

God has already passed his judgment, we are only relaying the message

Bluefly,

you are claiming that not even God should have any judgment on right or wrong, so how can you honestly say you place your beliefs in the same God? Moreover, you refer to God as a "her"! You are only further distancing yourself from the truth the more you post here. The lies you believe are clearly revealing themselves.

There is no hypocrisy in my words and I am not contradicting Scripture. You seem to think that judging a false doctrine is judging a person. Your judgment will be between you and God when you stand before the Great White Throne (if you don't follow God's plan of salvation); however, my judgment will be in front of the Bema Seat when Christ judges my actions AFTER I was born again. The GWT judgment is meant to judge unbelievers and they will be condemned to eternal hell. The Bema judgment will determine how many rewards a born again Christian will receive in eternal life with Christ.

Judging means to form an opinion of. You formed an opinion that Carolina judges. Judging is not bad, it is a good thing as long as it is done rightly and not as a hypocrite.

The world says, you can't judge a book by its cover. Christianity says, YOU CAN judge a book by it's cover. "You will know them by their fruit"

Okay. Fine. Let's play this game now.

I judge that your doctrinal belief in a literal interpretation of the Bible as being the only way to be in Christ is for little spiritual children who lack formal education and analytical thinking skills. Such a belief is for those who are not yet men and women in God and, therefore, cannot stand on their own two feet without being told precisely what to think and say by a book that has been in the control of greedy and malicious men for many centuries.

I'm not judging you, of course. I'm just judging false doctrine, so therefore I am doing it rightly and not as a hypocrite.

Feels good, doesn't it? Doesn't feel at all like a personal attack against the core of your spirituality, does it?

Yes, it does. Learn a lesson.

(you don't have to send the inevitable post in which you, somehow, tell me that the only way to "rightly" judge is by completely agreeing with you because YOU'RE the one human who has all the answers and and can prove it with verses from the New American Teen version of the Bible or the King James or whichever interpretation is fashionable these days.)

Seriously. Stop replying. You're not getting anywhere. I already contain your beliefs within my larger being of Love.

See was that so hard. I am a big boy, I can take it

Now if you can use scripture and facts to support your judgment then you might have some credence. Right now it just your lost belief

well, thank you for this explanation, my earlier post was in answer to an implicated accusation, imho clearly overstepping the boundaries of an opinion.

No skin off my back. Your judgment is worthless because it is not rooted in God's holy word. You have no leg to stand on, no water to hold. You seem to have a history of telling people to not reply to your wayward posts, as if you want to have the last word. This is not about having the last word, but about exposing your deceptive new age beliefs that have been permeating through Christianity. If you find yourself being insulted, then simply leave the thread. You were not invited here and you are more than welcome to leave. I am not going to sit here and let you espouse your opinion (which that is all it is--personal opinion) freely without defending the Word against it. Your man-made spiritual enlightenment holds no light to God's absolute truth.

And as far as my formal education and analytical thinking skills, you don't even want to go there.
