It is usually best to not even give the self-proclaimed judges of who is or isn’t a Christian a second thought.

Have you read what I wrote in 33 above. Did you read LDS Prophet and President Charles W. Penrose, Journal of Discourses, Vol. 21, p. 84, 1880??

—Hmmm. Interesting.—

Thank you. BTW, just to be clear for the lurker, by putting the word in quotes, I was not “using” the word. Rather, the subject of my post was the use of the word. :-P

Well, yeah, except when someone stands up and tries to do something like, for example, defend the KKK as a Christian organization, I feel compelled to point out that it is, in fact, not, and use scripture vs their mission statement to back it up.

You should know that Mormon doctrine teaches that Jesus died only for the sins of Adam ("Original Sin") and for the rest he only shows the "Way of Salvation".

I asked you in an earlier thread for a reference on that. I ask again. What is your reference that this is taught as Mormon doctrine?

Naw, just write it once and then post it a hundred times. That’s what I do.

Unless Penrose is the OP, my statement still stands.

Define the following first

Jesus Christ - his Person, nature and work

The Word - in what way

Creator of Heaven and earth

His Grace, we can be saved (in view of mormon articles of faith)

Further clarification includes -

Are “Christians” polytheistic

Does God guide men in these latter days via false prophetical spokesmen

What specifically is salvation in mormonism?

Was God a man who evolved to godhood.

Did this man sin

We anxiously await these key clarifications

Ah so you deny Penrose in the Journal of Discourses. Interesting. So you would also deny him in LDS Prophet and President Charles W. Penrose, Journal of Discourses, Vol. 21, p. 84, 1880. Where he says that the Bible is wrong?

No, I said I’m not going to judge the OP based on what someone else says. Salvation is between him and God. Would you like for all mainline Christians to be judged based on Pat Robertson’s recent statements?

You post for many reasons.......

You posted to tell us you are "humble".

You posted to give us "your testimony".

And apparently you posted to tell us...you and only you, are the LAST TRUE CONSERVATIVE. ROFLOL!!

One thing you have demonstrated to me is....You act like most mormon's I know.

We are all children of God, according to the bible.

With all due respect, the scriptures are clear that we are not all children of God. Only those who God has adopted into His family are children of God. The scriptures teaches that the rest are children of wrath-children who's father is the devil. And just so that Christians don't get a big head, since we must be adopted into God's family, then it follows that Christians at one time were children of wrath as well. (Eph 2). Evil exist in this world because most of the world are children of wrath and do the will of their father.

As far as "bickering and fighting" among Christians, the only reason this occurs is because it is evidence of 1) our sinful state, and 2) tares or false doctrine within the church. The first problem is indeed ourselves that fails to conform to the image of Christ. The second is where Christians alt to speak out and failure to do so is the sin of omission. And there's the paradox for a Christian; knowing when to speak and when to remain silence. But if we fail to warn a brother that, say, Mormonism is wrong, then then sin remains on our heads. If we have done so, then we just might help someone.
