I appreciate the tone ...

You're certainly entitled to that categorization but that doesn't change the fact that Jesus taught believing the "right" doctrines ( including eternal torment, substitutionary atonement and Biblical inerrancy).

Did you trust Christ to forgive you, save you from your sins, and commit your life to God?

*Me asking you if you're a Christian, based on my understanding of what that means.

Exactly. When someone says, "I'm a Christian", it tells me very little about that person. I know that they are not Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, or Atheist - that's about it. Since identifying as a Christian can have thousands of different meanings, it's better to just drop the label. Note, I did not say "deny Christ", I said drop the label.

Wrong. He not only did NOT teach we need to believe the right doctrines, He specifically warned against following the "precepts and doctrines of men."

Being that Jesus taught believing the "right" doctrines ( including eternal torment, substitutionary atonement and biblical inerrancy) ... subsequently anything to the contrary is the "precepts and doctrines of men." .

Amen, and just like you said, "Nothing but a rude awaking awaits them!" Sad but so true, I don't care how much they name call, justify their life of sin they will and have heard the voice of God through His servants speaking to them all the time here . And on the day of judgment they will hear those voices once again as God reveals to them how they exchanged the truth for the lies of God's will .

"Not everyone is a child of God or loved by God,( Jesus)"

1 John 3:6-10 (NASB)
6 No one who abides in Him sins; no one who sins has seen Him or knows Him.
7 Little children, make sure no one deceives you; the one who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous;
8 the one who practices sin is of the devil; for the devil has sinned from the beginning. The Son of God appeared for this purpose, to destroy the works of the devil.
9 No one who is born of God practices sin, because His seed abides in him; and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
10 By this the children of God and the children of the devil are obvious: anyone who does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor the one who does not love his brother.

One can not live in sin or to continue repeating the same sin over and over again and call them selves a child of God and then say all they have to do is repent every time they do sin, especially one can not keep repeating the same sin continously and believe they know God's love and His truth . That lie shames the Grace of God .
Read the scripture above it says, " No one who is born of God practices sin." wake up ppl and get on your knees before God Almighty cause what you believe and teach contradicts God's truth . It is nothing but complete deception and walking in the spirit of the flesh going in the direction of this world opposing the will of God and justify by using the excuse it is the "precepts and doctrines of men ."

Just like the scripture above they are sinning against His love and righteousness and trying to justify their unbelief about the will God and what He commands of us in honoring and obeying Him . And turn saying they don't believe what the scriptures teaches about God's truth and only believe what they choose to believe . There waits a big surprise for all who continue to believe such lies !

Thank you, Twin for always bringing the truth of God's word . As God has said His word will not come back void but it will accomplish that which it was sent forth to do, amen !
I pray God's word will draw ppl to repentance and turn them from the void and such awful lies about Him as it then has accomplished His will for their lives !

Wrong. He specifically taught and demonstrated agape love and told us over 400 times to love one another. How many times do you THINK He told us to believe the "right" doctrines????

If you believe in eternal torment or damnation, then you are missing the mark.
And, "No one who is born of God practices sin" by justifying the unjustifiable.
