If a human meets the criterion for being Christian, they are a true Christian. If they do not, they are not.

I don't play games with definitions, and I don't rationalize. If something isn't legitimate, I won't defend it.

”I don't play games with definitions, and I don't rationalize. ”

You’re in mistaken. A “real man”, “real coach”, “real teacher”, “real Marine”…. All just word play. All ways of enabling members to overlook the flaws within their group. You can pretend that you don’t have to address members falling victim to their weaknesses if you can say that they’re not “real” Christians. But will you claim them all as members when it works to your advantage? That wouldn’t be very “real Christian” of you… [smile]

This is really a silly conversation to have to make with an adult. Best regards.
