My definition of fellowship evidently is much more narrow than yours for the past week and 1/2 I have been to the river everyday trying to comfort a family who are standing on the banks trying to find a loved one who fell in. He was not saved he was a Baptist they are not saved including their lying preacher I am NOT fellowshipping them I am doing what Jesus did. HOWEVER if I was attending their services hearing that lying false profit preach and inviting him over and putting him on my platform then I would be fellowshipping him.
I eat with sinners, hypocrites, and lying false profits but I have NEVER given them the idea I think they are saved. But I am civil-cordial-friendly and believe it or not his town thinks I am a nice guy. But I have NOT compromised for family and I am not compromising for anyone else's family. This is way to serious for me it has eternal consequences.
Besides the forum was a dull as watching grass grow and this picked it up.

Honest about what? if there is any one person who there is no doubt what they believe, it would be Steve Epley.

He has stated straight up that he believes those not baptized in Jesus name will be lost. He states as such in plain Country English.

What other honesty do you ask of him?

I agree with you. It is one thing to reach for the lost and quit another to sit and listen to a false preacher.
