Would you agree there are "good" Christians and "bad" Christians?

No.

Are you declaring that there are no good Christians?

Are you declaring that there are no bad Christians?

Re: Re-Evidence

If I recall correctly, you don't claim to "be" a Christian, in that you don't claim to be "Christ-like". Using that criterion, there would be almost no Christians at all.

You recall correctly. And I agree that there are very few Christians in the world.

Most of them are neither "good" nor "bad", just imperfect.

I believe that we are all imperfect.

I am an imperfect born again human, trying to do the best I can during my stay here on planet earth.

If it was not for my faith in God and His rules in His Word to guide me I hate to think what my life would have been.

BTW thanks for thinking about me.

Re-Evidence

I believe the Holy Spirit enables me to see people the way God sees tham, I mentioned that before It is with that heart, that I feel God letting many people who claim not to believe in God, right into heaven. But that is just my opinion. I could probably back it up biblically, but it is not necessary.

RR I would like to see the scripture that trumps:

John 3:18 (KJS) He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

"John 5:39 (KJS) Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me."

Re: Re-Evidence

Read the thread. You have to understand what it means to "believe".

I did.

I do.

Re: Re-Evidence

And the rest of John 3 to find out what "condemned" means.

I did.

I do know.

I would still like to know RR's trump scripture.
