Re: Faith brings manifestation
No one who has been born of God continues to sin. Christ said, "Be ye perfect," and you let him make you perfect. You don't sin anymore, never again....
Well that just disqualified every supposed Christian ever born.
... BUT... IF YOU DO SIN, you repent and turn back to God.
Which is it hun? "No sin ever" or "well, maybe but you're really sorry for it." You can't have it both ways.
You claim that those that do terrible things aren't Christian, what if they repent?
What if they do it again, but then repent again?
What if they honestly and sincerely believe they are doing what the bible tells them is right?
What if they are wrong?
What if you are wrong?
From my believing days, I know that the only one who can judge who is or is not a believer is Christ himself. Everyone else only has what people call themselves to go by. Well... there is that whole fruits issue, but again, if nothing is said about a person's beliefs, you have no clue as to whether or not they are Christian.
Many people here have made claims concerning this country having a Christian majority, but then in different threads make claims that this group or that group aren't real Christians. The Christian majority claim is solely made on what these people consider themselves. Once again, you can't have it both ways.
