What Do People Think About Christians?

Clip from one of my favorite Radio personalities.

Legalism is alive and well on this forum.

1000's think to be saved by works, works, and more works.

Re: What Do People Think About Christians?

Exactly what I have always known people think.

1. they are christian, so , duh.
2. they hate it because it smacks their lifestyle in the face.
and
3. they just dont care either way.

Thankfully,
"a good deed covers many sins."
Work away, I say.

Yes, if you avoid great sins Allah will amend the bad deeds and minor sins ...
and Allah will change their sins into good deeds …

But the question referred to Christians, Bbyrd.

It doesn't matter what they think. They need to get saved or they're in danger of Hellfire and it doesn't matter whether or not they "don't like us" they can't us "us" as an excuse for not seeking the Lord for themselves. Just saying.

Re: What Do People Think About Christians?

He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?

And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins

you may be sure that whoever brings a sinner back from his wrong path will save his soul from death and cover a multitude of sins

Well, the quote was from the Bible, Dordt...and the Qur'an does not say that, that I am aware; can you quote?

To the extent that a Christian willingly or ignorantly bars the door to others' entry, I might say that God disagrees
(at the risk of receiving further infractions).
