Who are these people?
 

Matthew 7:22
Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?

OK, so who exactly is Jesus talking about here? Fake Christians? So-called "nominal" Christians? Luke-warm?

They sound more like Pentecostals, to me. I mean, who else would try to make that defense -- casing out devils, prophesying, doing wonderful works? Baptists? Roman Catholics? "Nominal" Christians, who go to church a couple times a year?

Now, I'm not saying Jesus will reject all Pentecostals, nor that he will accept any Baptists. Who knows? But, well, I guess I'm just sayin'. :lol

Uh...yes. Lots of baptists believe they prophesy or cast out devils. Ever watch "The Exorcist"? You think those were Pentecostal priests?

Thats a pretty dumb post Timmy...But what else is new :throwrock

Would that make them WPF ers or AMF ers?

Re: Who are these people?
 

It would make them, evangelicals, Independents, Baptists, unchurched..why do I really need to list everything they could be?

Re: Who are these people?
 

Catholics, you mean? Yeah, forgot about them. Don't know about Baptists.

Anyway, who will be those believers who are rejected, even though they prophesied, cast out devils, and did miracles? Well, of course, Jesus actually said who they are: people who didn't do what he told them to do. Which was a lot. Jesus gave you a lot of work to do. Yep. Works. :thumbsup

Timmy, I just wonder sometimes whether or not you just like to pick on Pentecostals and stir the ole pot.
