Thanks; Brother!!
So, in other words, if you are not a particular brand of Christianity, you’re calling God a liar.
I say that it’s not your call, as far as judging what other people believe.
2 Timothy 4:2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
How would you apply that if you didn't compare what people say they believe to scripture?
It’s not about religion.
It’s not about religion.
It’s not about religion.
One’s personal brand of Christianity is NOT what salvation is about or how it’s obtained.
Jesus tells us clearly in Scripture that salvation is by believing in HIM.
No man comes to the Father but by Jesus.
Not Catholicism. Not Protestantism. Not any -ism.
Jesus.
....”So, in other words, if you are not a particular brand of Christianity, you’re calling God a liar”....
Makes no difference of brand rather that to say one cannot know their salvation is secured , when God’s written word confirms again and again we are met to know and be secure in Him......does intend call God a liar.
1 Jn.5:10:...” He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar;...... because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son.
....”it’s not your call, as far as judging what other people believe”....
It’s written...“Do not judge according to appearance, but judge righteous judgment.”....judge by the word of God, that is what it means to judge righteously...
The New Testament tells us to test ALL things. We are told to do this because it helps keep us away from what is false..... Paul said, “If anyone preaches another gospel let him be accursed”... Would anyone say to Paul’s face “your judging.”????
It’s amazing that the things which affect our spiritual life people say... “don’t judge.” ....and that’s a lie of the enemy of God just as was done in the garden...the dvil expected Eve not to judge what he was saying with what God had ‘already’ spoken.... She didn’t judge, and instead she and Adam were judged!
Interesting fact is that to tell people they are judgmental IS to judge them....when in reality what’s being said is that they’re asking us not to judge ‘by the word of God’ and to ignore any discernment God has asked us to do...as they would.....and this because they cannot deal with the Scripture proof given.
Heb. 5:12-14 Tells us.....“For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the first principles of the oracles of God; and you have come to need milk and not solid food. For everyone who partakes only of milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, for he is a babe. But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses exercised ‘to discern’ both good and evil.”
So, in other words, if you are not a CATHOLIC, you’re calling God's ONLY, TRUE instrument on Earth a liar.
