Christian liars
I don't give a lot of heedance to statistics, but for arguments sake, if this is true...
Among the more startling numbers in the survey, conducted last year by the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life: 57 percent of evangelical church attenders said they believe many religions can lead to eternal life, in conflict with traditional evangelical teaching.
In all, 70 percent of Americans with a religious affiliation shared that view, and 68 percent said there is more than one true way to interpret the teachings of their own religion.
I love it when man replaces scripture with "religion" (Of course I say this tongue in cheek), there is no limit on what lies he can come up with to believe, but of course their father is the father of lies.
Love in Christ,
Jim

RE: Christian liars
There are no Christian liars.
Rev 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

RE: Christian liars
Brother Jim, I do not believe those many, many people who profess to be Christians and believe there are other gods and other ways to get to heaven are in fact Christians.
One of the basic tenents of Christianity is that we believe the Bible is the true Word of God and is without error.When the Bible says that there is only one way to get to heaven and that is through Jesus Christ I just cannot believe that anyone who claims to be a Christian and does not accept that is in fact a saved and born again Christian.
(1Jn 5:9) If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son.
(1Jn 5:10) He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son.
(1Jn 5:11) And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.
(1Jn 5:12) He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.
I think that pretty well sums it up. At least it does for me.
In Christ,
George
(Galatians 5:1) Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.

Yes, I understand this. I should have worded my title a little better, however, the term "christian" as used by most people is a very loose term. Obviously to you and I, it is a very clear term. That was my intent.
My response of "Oh really" was a response to the claim that "There are no Christian liars.", which is a lie.
Is there someone that truly thinks that there are no christian liars?
