>>Progressive” Christians = Apostates

IMHO
<<

An apostate means somebody who is not Christian anmy more or at least not a good Christian, right?

Do you really think you can go to hell for having liberal politics?

Apostate n. One who has abandoned one's religious faith, a political party, one's principles, or a cause.

Only if you weren't saved in the first place.

No. An apostate is believing or preaching a perverted Christian doctrine which is not biblical. The gnostics were an example. Teaching or believing that homosexual sex is OK for a Christian, or that there are other ways to salvation than believing in Christ are two current examples of apostacy being taught in "progressive" churches. (There is no such thing as a "progressive" Christian.)
