I believe that we have already had the Presbyterians establish for us that they were not Christian based upon the following points:
1. Rejection of the Gospel of Christ? Check.
2. Embracing Paulianity, rejected as heresy by the Church 1500 years ago? Check.
3. Gnostic declarations of personal salvation? Check.
4. Gnostic declarations of all others to hell? Check.
5. Nestorian heretical beliefs of the Trinity? Check.
6. Rejection of a number of statements in the Nicene Creed? Check.
There are a bunch more, but they have certainly convinced me that they are not Christian and don't intend to be any more than JWs or Mormons intend to be. They just want to use the name that they've attempted to hijack.
Funny, Mark. Beyond attributing things to posters (which your post does), and reading minds... Wow. You actually go as far as reading the mind of God.
And, sadly, the points you list are all wrong! ALL!
Since your post included me, let me ask you this: how do you know I reject the Gospel?
Answer You cannot know it. Because I LOVE the Gospel. I accept it because I AM Christian.
Next... what on earth is Paulianity? Roman Catholics claim to have provided the Bible to the world -- Paul wrote books that are Canon, no? So - -do you reject Paul's teaching, inspired by the Holy Spirit?
Gnosticism? I think not. My salvation is based on Christ's shed blood on the Cross -- On the faith and trust that God has provided for me in His only begotten Son.
Nestorianism? Fail. Nice try though, but fail.
I have not the first issue with the Nicene Creed -- but obviously, you attribute to me this issue since you pinged me.
The only "check" that is being shown here is a "check" written that cannot be cashed -- your points all come back marked "insufficient funds."
