For someone who claims to be so solid in their faith, you sure are defensive, and a bit offensive as well.

Who appointed you the judge of “error” in the first place? Which is my whole point. I have been accused of many things on this forum over the years. But in God's eyes, we are all equal. I could care less what you think.

I have seen things and been places you could not even dream of. I have also experienced first hand to hand combat in a real war, against my fellow man. It was then that I learned how and where to gather strength and faith at the very source. I no longer needed a vast amount of detail in order to believe. I made the choice in it's most simple form.

You are correct that you shall know them by their fruit. This refers to the end times when there will be large numbers of false Christians and hypocrites who will betray you. Seeing how they truly live and are will be the only safe way to have fellowship with them in the coming future.

This does not give you the right to become a judge however. Like I said before, this is merely how you interpret what is written. Mine and others will be somewhat different according to life's trials and tribulations.

You already assume much more about me than you will ever know. And this is where I will leave it. Above all else, take no offense from what I say. Only try to understand that there are other outlooks than your own and the truth is universal.

I have not been defensive or offensive.
I am not defensive because I have not taken anything personal even the personal insults that you gave. I am only debating a point with you.

No one appointed me to be the judge of error. The scripture is the judge of error. It isn’t my interpretation of anything. It is clearly written the the whole creation groans and travails in pain together until now. It isn’t perfect. Sin affected it. If you would like to tell me how that is misinterpretated I would be happy to listen.

Speaking the truth is not judgement. I didn’t feel judged because you said the universe is perfect and that I have misinterpreted scripture.

I haven’t been offensive to you. I haven’t called you a name. I have spoken the truth plain and simple. I assume nothing about you. You however assumed alot about me with your first post. I asked you to explain it and you changed the subject.

Frankly and not to offend you but you make no sense. Have a nice day.
