I did not say anything about a game.I didn’t know it was a game clearly it is to you. That is unfortunate. Your salvation is at steak.
Then we obviously have a different understanding of the word quote, no surprise. I am familiar with this tactic.Yet, I did
Yes, it’s it’s yours. You should be very familiar with it.Then we obviously have a different understanding of the word quote, no surprise. I am familiar with this tactic.
You said I was losing? Are we keeping score? Is that not a game? How can I lose if there’s no one keeping any score? Did you ask the Holy Spirit about this?I did not say anything about a game.
Misquote me all you want.
Your line if thinking and your understanding of God and of spiritual thing is losing me. We obviously have different understanding of God.
I believe Jesus came to save not condemn. I will not condemn you for your understanding. May the love of God shine unto you personally as only He can.
Jesus did come to save. I agree with you. but clearly, some will be condemned by their own doing and led astray by their own understandings and their own fleshly desires, even if they’re calling it the Holy Spirit.I did not say anything about a game.

I do not get to judge their eternal salvation. But I do have a responsibility to tell them if they are on the wrong path. Or else I will be judged. Christians are supposed to spread the good news not the fake news.Question:
Will it be you who determines those that will be condemned by their own doing and are led astray by their own understanding and their own fleshly desires, even if they’re calling it the Holy Spirit?
Glad your understanding is that you do not get to judge anyone in this way. I share in your understanding of this.I do not get to judge their eternal salvation.

God holy word that he left as a that he left as a roadmap for us and a guideGlad your understanding is that you do not get to judge anyone in this way. I share in your understanding of this.
I appreciate your sense of responsibility.
Question:
Is it you who decides what qualifies for someone to be on the wrong path that your sense of responsibility prompts you to tell them that they are on the wrong path?
Muslims hold Jesus as their third most important prophet. And do not believe him to be the Son of God. So they definitely aren't Christian.Based upon my understanding, belief, and faith, if those that you claim believe in Jesus in their innermost selves then IMO by definition they actually are Christian.
If a Christian is openly living in sin the Church elders have a responsibility to tell him so and warn him he will be shunned and disfellowshipped if he refuses to stop. So yes, on this Earth there are those given responsibility to shepherd the flock and preserve it.Question:
Will it be you who determines those that will be condemned by their own doing and are led astray by their own understanding and their own fleshly desires, even if they’re calling it the Holy Spirit?
To clarify your words; when you said above “God holy word”, you are referring to Bible, correct?God holy word that he left as a that he left as a roadmap for us and a guide
and the Holy Spirit.
I’m extremely happy to know that I haven’t lost anything. Even though you said I was losing.

Are you an expert and authority on all Muslims and Christians?Muslims hold Jesus as their third most important prophet. And do not believe him to be the Son of God. So they definitely aren't Christian.
I've read enough to know what the Muslims teach concerning Jesus. Maybe you should consider why it is that in most of the Muslim world the Bible isn't allowed in and Christians are imprisoned for proselytizing.Are you an expert and authority on all Muslims and Christians?

Does he need to be to know that that is true? I’m not an auto mechanic, but I know when my car needs gas.Are you an expert and authority on all Muslims and Christians?
I have been regularly reading the Bible since 3rd grade. I have no spiritual dissonance with the viewpoint that it can be useful as a roadmap and a guide. Both roadmaps and guides have their limitations as IMO the does as well.God holy word that he left as a that he left as a roadmap for us and a guide
