For my 60 years it’s been my experience that those who love Jesus as their Lord and Savior talk abput Him all the time...

Well, much of the time...

He is their “all in all”

And they are excited when they come across new people who love Jesus too...

There is a comradery and an instinct of belonging with the other person...part of the family and the Church, the Body of Christ, the Bride, has been discovered...

The bond is “the love of God that has been shed abroard in our hearts”

This is another person that i will spend eternity with...I want to know them better...

And in these threads, as the other Christians write about Jesus, the One I love, and Who is head over heels in love with me, I learn more and more about Him and these people become more important to me...

I can hardly tell on this thread who actually does love the Lord...at least, not from the behavior and language I have seen expressed here...

People can say they love Jesus, and yet their behavior and language wherever they go, makes one wonder....people can and do say all sorts of things, and yet only they, know the truth of it...those who seek to know the truth of my own faith, for whatever reason, will be disappointed...they can guess, they can make up little stories, they can indulge themselves in their little lies, they can bear false witness about me...if that makes them happy, then so be it...I and only I and God know the truth of the matter...it is between Him and me, and frankly none of your business..

But if it makes you happy, keep on speculating...

I am just trying to understand, why some folks think that they have such great authority, that they can, without so much as a blinking of the eye, proclaim others of other faiths to be ‘not Christians’, even tho others of that other faith, have adamantly proclaimed Christ as their Savior...it really is a spectacle...

I am not obliged to share my faith with you...I am obliged only to the Lord, and that is sufficient for me...
