You are what you do.

And since you sin every day, just like everyone else, does that not make you.... a SINNER??? gasp

Bingo! I am a sinner. What makes a person Christian is repenrence. You can define Christian a repenting sinner. Calling sin good is not repentence.

Stop judging people. Let Christ's GRACE work in people's lives, then attitudes will change.

By all means let Christ grace works. And let us accept chastisement gracefully.

Blind "repentance" preaching does nothing.

What is "blind repentance"?

[gamarob1]

No, I'm not a Christian because I "repent". I'm a Christian because I believe that Jesus Christ died for my sins and rose again, and I'm born again because of that faith, not repentance.

Furthermore, what you define as "sin", another may not. The book of Romans is very clear on this. Matters of personal freedom and liberty aren't yours to dissect.

What I meant by "blind repentance" is that you're advocating repentance over the blood of Jesus shed for the FINAL payment for sins. It is over, now, because of His blood, not by any repentance of mine.

Nevertheless, this is a thread and story about Halloween, not Christian theology, so if you want to continue this, let's take it to personal mail...
