Perhaps this will help explain the difference between nice Christians (those who do not evangelize like your Lutheran neighbor) and biblical born-again Christians (those that point out error and false doctrine and care for your soul more than they do your feelings).
God bless you, mlizzy!!
It is a lazy age in every respect, a sentimental, sloppy age, an age that wants entertainment and dislikes effort.Well I agree with the above, Jody. And I think one who cares for another's feelings is already displaying their Christianity [even if they're not a Christian]. You would like my old [and she is very old right now] neighbor. As a little girl, she would welcome me into her home, offer me fresh baked cookies and cold milk, and there was always one of those small Bible-story books on the table next to the cookies, and she would read it to me. She had a Cocker Spaniel named "Happy," and she had a long very thick blonde ponytail [the owner, not the dog] -lol- that swayed when she walked. Very wonderful woman!
