Sin is SIN. And you will not be saved if you have unrepentant sin in your life. The Bride must be WITHOUT spot or blemish.

Nah, you're just on AFF (right next door to the Twilight Zone...).
My point is that many who claim to be liberal and tolerant are actually Pharisaic legalists at heart, and it shows in their demands when arguing against others.
Ndavid, do you believe people can have the right heart and attitude, wholly devoted to pleasing God, yet be ignorant of various details on how to perform the will of God? And that it takes time to LEARN the specifics of God's will on various matters? And that as long as the heart is right, the person will grow and learn and conform to the will of God as it becomes known to them? And further, that such a person is not hellbound unless they willfully balk at the now-known will of God?
OR, do you believe every born again child of God is
hellbound until they are totally perfect in every possible thing, in every possible way, no exceptions PERIOD?
