Dialogue with a Muslim

I am not the arbiter of who is lost. I dare not create what we must or must not do to be list or saved. The Bible did, though, and I cannot ignore that. And when it says the cross is the only way, and people reject that truth, it is the Word of God made the conclusion, not me. Don't shoot me, im only the piano player.

Then by that interpretation the Word condemns you, also. You seek lip service for God, and ignore pride and judgementalism. You need others to appear lost, so that you can justify how you are saved. It is just another Inquisition; the Pentecostal Inquisition. Anyone who gives the correct responses is "saved."

Why you ignore my words I cannot say. I repeated that it's not anything to do with correct responses we receive from others. It's the correct faith God sees in the heart. And I ignore no pride or Judgmentalism, for it is not pride and Judgmentalism that cause me to say Muslims are lost. It's the word. Simple, as that. Just because you restrict the cause for one saying a group is lost to pride and judgment, does not mean that is the only cause that exists nor the cause I say it. Sorry, you're not God, once again.
