Stop using clever phrases and just come out and say it.
Is he a sinner? Is he going to hell unless he repents?

I don't believe either of these things at this point and never said I did.

Re: Welcome Fellow Christians - Steve Pixler 8/17/
reprobate (adj.)
early 15c., "rejected as worthless," from Late Latin reprobatus, past participle of reprobare "disapprove, reject, condemn," from Latin re- "opposite of, reversal of previous condition" (see re-) + probare "prove to be worthy" (see probate (n.)). Earliest form of the word in English was a verb, meaning "to disapprove" (early 15c.).
reprobate (n.)
1540s, "one rejected by God," from reprobate (adj.). Sense of "abandoned or unprincipled person" is from 1590s.
Just in case anyone doesn't know what the word means.

The main definition is rejected as worthless that is how the word was used in the early 15th century A.D.

Does that accurately reflect how God sees the world He died to save?
Worthless?
