Jesus does not want us to condemn you at all. We are not capable of that. Just as we a re not capable of sitting in Judgement of any other human being. Only He who holds the keys to Death and Hades is capable of that, and That is Jesus Himself.
Okay....one last attempt. Do you not see the hypocracy in the above quote.
"Jesus does not want us to condemn you at all", This to me is a beautiful statement and I honestly believe it to be true.
"just as we are not capable of sitting in judgement of any other"
Also well put and following the life of the christ.
"only he who holds the keys is capable of that"
I fully agree.
You then go on to judge an enormous portion of the population to hell by stating your understanding of the way to salvation. I firmly believe I am living my life in the way christ would have hoped, love and understanding as my tools for growth, yet YOU have judged me a "failed christian" because I interpret the scriptures in a way YOU dont approve of.
It is because of this mindset that I am not a christian by your own standards.I dont go to your church because there are people like you there, not because I dont love christ.
I very much hope you can understand the reason for this reply. I would not attempt to change the depth of faith you possess, as you obviously require it. perhaps a bit of redirection in understanding could be of benefit though.
Regardless, we will undoubtedly disagree in this realm, so be it.When all is said and done, I hope we can be more open in heaven.
