"So, between the time you sin and the time you repent of the sin, you are still a Christian, even if you are a Christian in bad standing."

I have no idea what "Christian in bad standing" means. One is either justified or not.

The man who made original statement, Jeb Bush, is a Catholic. I am responding according to Catholic standards. Our Church teaches that there are bad Christians, those who commit seriosu sin, die in serious sin and go to hell. Dante said that the floor of hell is paved with the skulls of bishops.

So, I am addressing this in terms of the Faith that Jeb and I share. You can disagree, but I was pointing out that Jeb's statement, on the basis of the Faith that he and I share, was not fair to Trump.
