I am a Roman Catholic. We do not prosletize(?). You have judged me without knowing what’s truly in my heart. I love the Lord with my entire being and I am considered a Prayer Warrior and have prayed and helped many people. You have judged me wrongly and that is your error. Romneys beliefs are his and his alone. The Lord knows him and I pray for his conversion, as I do for many others.

I watch Pastor Hagee every Sunday before I go to church so please don’t tell me I don’t know Evangelism.

Matthew 7
Judging Others
1 “Do not judge, or you too will be judged. 2 For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
3 “Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? 4 How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? 5 You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.

6 “Do not give dogs what is sacred; do not throw your pearls to pigs. If you do, they may trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces.

Ask, Seek, Knock
7 “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.
9 “Which of you, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone? 10 Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? 11 If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him! 12 So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets

A very odd thing about Mormonism, is how so many Catholics and atheists rush to defend it on these threads.

I have heard repeatedly that Mormons do very well winning converts from Catholicism.

Your church does not consider Mormonism a Christian religion.

That is incorrect. The Catholic church has a long history of proselytizing. Not only to the pagans, but to heretics as well. The Early Church Fathers wrote alot on proselytization and evangelizing non Christians and Heretics. St. Augustine was a heretic at one point by his own admission and was proselytized into the faith. And the Catholic church does not consider Mormons to be Christians.

I have a PhD in medieval religious (Catholic) history and grew up in a Catholic school so I am well versed in Catholicism. My BA is in Biblical Studies and my MA in Ancient History.

FWIW, I don’t consider Hagee representative of Evangelicalism, he preaches a few heresies as well.

I judged your words, not your heart. I never claimed you didn’t love the Lord, I asked if you cared if Mormons were going to Hell. You are the one making assumptions.

Matthew 7 is about judging hypocritically, it doesn’t tell us not to judge.

I love Mormons enough to tell them they are going to Hell. I wish more Christians felt the same.

We ALL do this.

All we CAN do is read what is written here on FR and make judgements based on that.

If there is more in a person's heart; he needs to reveal it.
