You can be a Christian and deny essential doctrine

not!!!

I am on this board and have started a flame with the Catholics and liberal progressives because I have claimed them not children of God. This board claims Christianity yet calls Catholics, Liberals, and probably many of the cults Christians.

As much as there are problems on this board at least my critics affirm the essentials of the faith.

You are aware, we are to judge ourselves and not others? And yes, God can choose to cause people holding differing doctrine to be born anew. Recall how we are to treat the least of our siblings.

If a person, or group asserts biblical doctrine, that we believe is mistaken, we are to stand firm in the faith, and defend our views. But you did not address errant doctrine, and so your OP does not affirm the essentials of the faith.

So you think those that affirm gay theology, teach another way to heaven besides Jesus are Christians?

I think you did not comprehend my post. In your second post you addressed doctrine. Your first example is not allowed to be discussed, at least by me. But referring to the second, the one and only way to heaven is through the blood of Jesus. Plenty of scripture makes this clear.

Final thought, remember the guy praying, who told the Lord, gee I am glad I am not like this other guy. You need to consider the implications of that account! (Luke 18:10-14)

He is saying that the Bible tells us that we are not to judge the world but to exercise discernment within the church. We are not to use the Law to condemn the world but instead to go and disciple people (the verb in the Great Commission is "disciple").

And we are to walk in the Light, not joining ourselves with people whose behavior is contrary to Christ. We are to be a holy people, sanctified to God, husbands of one wife - loving her as Christ loves the Church, people of good reputation, etc.

Maybe you should shake the dust from your feet and leave the other board alone.

There is a article on liberal Christianity on the website gotquestions.org of which I agree. Read it.

I think you are terribly mistaken. I have done posts on the salvation of Roman Catholics and come away thinking that most on this board would not call Roman Catholics saved from the response. The views on this board vary greatly on that point, but a good number, such as myself, believe that if you mess up key doctrines you are probably not saved. The key question I still need to discuss is "what are key doctrines?"

No I am on another board and there they think Catholics and liberal Christianity to be true.

He's in a no win situation. If Catholic doctrine is Christian then he needs to leave Catholics to the Catholic Church for correction in doctrinal matters rather than judging the servant of Another. BUT if Catholic doctrine is not Christian (I believe it is not) then it is of the world and he has no business judging them at all - he should just "disciple others as he goes".

The Disciples never confronted the pagan religious institutions as @evangelist6589 insists on doing. Either way he is wrong.

Notice I don’t bother with Buddhism, Hinduism, Shintoism, or the other world religions? I am both evangelizing others and calling out the snakes in the church who profess to be Christians yet deny essential doctrine.

Multiple spiritual gift tests have placed me as an evangelist and a prophet. Witnessing is Evangelism and calling out the snakes is something else.
