The called minister says with Paul therefore, "Woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!" (1 Corinthians 9:16)
The strictness is always of the highest

The “mount”

So if he's upset with sinning, and upset with you, then stop your sinning. Deflecting the attention elsewhere won't solve your problems.

Yup, indeed you do (along with most fundagelicals).

The reasons for "everlasting punishment" according to the Master are...? ?

If you need help, go to got answers.

I think John 15:6 explains it fairly well when Jesus said,

"If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned."

Done that.

Now, if you want to judge me, then point out any post where I have sinned on these forums and I will consider it and repent.

There's another thread trying to stir up people to judge, but that's not my style. So carry on in peace.

Nothing in that link teaches us that it is a sin to stir up people to judge.

Jesus stirred up the Pharisees to judge when He said, "Which one of you convinceth me of sin?" (John 8:46).
