That's right. The high theologianshere on TOL spend most of their time attempting to justify their :banana: wicked behavior (Mt 5:19, Jud 4).They know a bible verse or two; :blabla: but, they've never actually met the Great Physician who heals (Ro 8:14, Re 3:17). They never say like John the Baptist, He must increase, but I must decrease (Jn 3:30). They don't look more and more like Jesus each day until finally the natural man is gone and all that remains is Him. They merely got their card punched and believe they're headed for heaven (Mt 7:23). They tell you that they don't struggle with the devil when Jesus did (Jn 14:30, Heb. 4:15). What sin? they say; as if they've arrived (Phil 3:12). They even tell you what to call the Lord as if he doesn't know to whom you are referring. linger: Mal 4:4-6, Mt 24:14

As a reminder marhig is number 65 on Satan, Inc. (TOL Heretics list) in "The 'Jesus is not God' people (Non-trinitarians) category. :burnlib:
Yes your right with most of your post, it's just a shame that you can quite happily add many to a Satan's heretics list even though they may love God with all their hearts. But God knows the truth and he knows those that truly love him with their all, those who lay down their lives and become a living sacrifice and being dead to their old life, they are a temple made not with hands, but by the living God. Changed by the spirit through Christ being born of God they walk in a newness of life and Gods love. And the life of Christ is seen in and through them as they live by the will of God.
These are Christ's true church, those who worship God in spirit and in truth
And I've forgiven you for judging me, and I pray that God forgives you for judging and condemning those that love him and live by his will, following Christ Jesus. As nowhere in the Bible does it say that we have to believe in the trinity to be saved. But we are to believe in Jesus Christ, and believe that he is the son of God, which I do.
And I do struggle with the devil daily, and I know that through Christ by the spirit I am receiving the strength to overcome. As I turn from the lusts of my flesh and obey the living God, he strengthens me, and this world and the works of it are dying daily as my flesh dies. In fact I look at what I was like and I think I must have been mad to worry and be involved in the nonsense that I was. We are so foolish without God. Thanks be to God that he opened my eyes and through Christ saved me from this untoward world.
I'm truly blessed to know the living God.
