Okay, I can live with that, but are you a man with an opinion? Does everyone who disagrees with you going to a devil's hell? Does everything have to be about "legalism"? Sometimes I wonder if that particular word is your favorite.

Btw, I'm not bashing you, I just notice a trend concerning your posts which clearly defines your disdain for legalism. I give you credit, alot of your posts seem to be pretty logical; however, I also notice some bias (which isn't always a bad thing). <-------I say this with respect.

Re: JP lookng our way

Is the Bible not clear about the dangers of legalism?

Are we supposed to pacify those operating under the spirit of witchcraft? The reason they have an unhealthy control is people tried to get along with that spirit. Ahab pacified Jezebel to the point she was running the show.

Scripture clearly defines legalism as the attempts to impose man made restrictions on people in order to be saved. Scripture clearly states what spirit is driving the legalistic agenda.

I'll support your personal beliefs. If you want to wear a burqa or a skirt to your ankles for religious purposes no problem. The second your personal interpetations become my requirements for salvation, is a moment it transfers from a personal conviction to witchcraft.

You don't have to agree with every I say to make it to heaven. You have to line up with God's principles, not man's interpretation.
