That would presume obviously that Mormons are not Christians of which you have already passed judgement. So if the only true Judge deems them to be Christians then you are basically screwed becuase you have already judged them in your heart.

#1...That goes both ways...If you deem/judge them as "Christians" -- and then don't treat them as a "mission field" -- and you thereby convince other Christians to likewise ignore them as a mission field, you are screwed before the Jesus Christ who commissions His church to go and make disciples of all ethnic groups...which includes Mormons.

#2...

The 80,000 Mormon missionaries deem Christians as a mission field. Why do they get a free pass from you? Their theology says that the unmarried, the non-Mormons, and the non-temple Mormons all won't live forever with the Mormon heavenly father. Even if they are necro-baptized by proxy. Are you riled up 'bout that? Or inconsistently no?

#3...

The end of 1 Corinthians 2 says those in Christ are able, thru the Holy Spirit, to both judge/speak at times with the mind of Christ. Do you disagree with Paul on that?

Paul in fact even says there that Christians are to judge all things. When you get to heaven, are you going to tell Paul to his face that he was off-base on that assessment?

Are we to toss all discernment out the window, because you deem it being "judgmental?" (And isn't one man's labeling of "judging" another man's wise discernment exercised by the leading of the Holy Spirit?)

#4...next post...

“#1...That goes both ways...If you deem/judge them as “Christians” — and then don’t treat them as a “mission field” — and you thereby convince other Christians to likewise ignore them as a mission field, you are screwed before the Jesus Christ who commissions His church to go and make disciples of all ethnic groups...which includes Mormons. “

From your previous statements it appears that you view Mormons as a cult that need to be exterminated rather than a mission field, so it is very clear that you are contradicting your self on this argument.

“#2... The 80,000 Mormon missionaries deem Christians as a mission field. Why do they get a free pass from you? Their theology says that the unmarried, the non-Mormons, and the non-temple Mormons all won’t live forever with the Mormon heavenly father. “

Again you setup a straw man argument as most Christians believe that baptism is necessary to be saved. But this is not judging a person just indicating that there are certain requirements to salvation that must be met.
