You know very well, you are either with God or against God, there isn’t any middle ground.

My conflict is centered around this,
1. By condemning the man you are judging him, I would have no problem condemning every action offensive to God the man undertakes but won’t judge him.
2. So if you judge him, you are by definition against God, if you are against God, you end up in Hell
3. If you say he isn’t following God, not only do you judge him, you are saying he is against God, which means he is going to hell by your judgment, that is how you are condemning him to hell.

You need to understand this basic religious concept regarding Most Traditions of Christian Denominations.

If this thread had been purely centered on Mormonistic practices etc.. I would have been shouting Amen to most of it. As soon as you introduce a person’s name, I say it isn’t consistent with my attempts to mimic what I think Jesus would do.

All this applies to every other form of sin:
1. Homosexual Releationships
2. Theft
3. Murder ....etc

I have sinned and I asked the Lord for forgiveness. I ask that people not condemn me for being a sinner so that I may seek salvation though Jesus. I was blessed by others in this way, and do the same for others as he has done for me. Love the Sinner, Hate the Sin, Bring the Sinner to God.

If you don’t believe this ... consult with your pastor for more information and guidance.

Wrong again. God gives us (Christians) the authority to judge everything against the Word of God, with one exception - the heart, that alone is God’s judgment.
