Please, doc, do your best to convince RnMom, and the others, to their satisfaction, that you are not in the mind-control business. You can start by letting others know that they can disagree with you without accusations, attacks, and heavy warnings of eternal damnation. As you exhort all to come to Christ, tell the truth about those who already have, and acknowledge their devotion and commitment in faith to Him, even though you disagree with them on matters of doctrine

I've got a better idea. I will tell them the Truth from God's Word. And the Truth is, there are more wide-doorway pseudo-conversions than there are genuine (narrow-doorway) conversions.

Now, the very fact that there are pseudo-conversions tells us that there are unregenerate folks who will receive some Bible truths at some level in their deceitful and desperately/unknowably wicked hearts . (The Reformers noticed this over and over in Roman Catholicism.)

Next, notice that when we put this interesting fact alongside the fact that the pseudo-conversions do outnumber the genuine conversions, the evidential value of a person's testimony and smattering of Bible knowledge can be essentially neutralized by the display of lying spirit.

So, tell me again why I should be unwilling to warn doctrinal liars?

***

I can understand why non-Christians such as yourself don't like sermonic material on the wrath of God. And I can understand that you "burning bosom" folks can't stand serious discussions about Satanic counterfeiting.

And as I see it, the fact that you are the one who runs to give them your stinky balm of reassurance by attacking me is not a good sign for them.

Your #48: Now, the very fact that there are pseudo-conversions tells us that there are unregenerate folks who will receive some Bible truths at some level in their deceitful and desperately/unknowably wicked hearts.

And the state of your own heart is? And the probability of yours being a pseudo-conversion, given your predatory behavior, is? God looketh upon the heart.

You write: Next, notice that when we put this interesting fact alongside the fact that the pseudo-conversions do outnumber the genuine conversions, the evidential value of a person's testimony and smattering of Bible knowledge can be essentially neutralized by the display of lying spirit. So, tell me again why I should be unwilling to warn doctrinal liars?

You are unwilling to tell the truth about those you are accusing. You call them doctrinal liars when all they do is disagree with you. Remember that he that exalteth himself shall be abased.

You are unwilling to tell the truth about me, or RnMom, or drot, or GWB. Everyone is a case of pseudo-conversion to you who disagrees with you about as little as the interpretation of a single verse.

When a shepherd goes looking for a lost sheep, and a predator (a wolf) goes looking also, the sheep is the same, the sheep is just as lost, but the approach is different, the motive is different, the methods are different, and the end result is different.

So don't be a predator. God loves you, and wants you to be filled with His love. Instead, you must be filled with the awful negativity and bitterness that comes out in your posts, or it could not flow forth in such profusion.
