1 | Creating converts to Islam? | 1 Cor 1:12 | Brian.g | 33220 | ||
Joe My words are very clear. Instead of using history to justify creating disharmony, I would hope that people use the Gospel to understand how to promote harmny. That is my understanding as to what pleases God. Brian |

2 | Creating converts to Islam? | 1 Cor 1:12 | Reformer Joe | 33246 | ||
Your words are not terribly clear, because this whole line of circumlocution can really be summed up in your REAL point: that Protestants shouldn't evangelize Catholics. And I will stop evangelizing Catholics when you all have the evangel right. --Joe! |

3 | Creating converts to Islam? | 1 Cor 1:12 | Brian.g | 33251 | ||
Joe The Gospel defines our responsibility to build up the Church of Christ, not to attack any part of it. Creating disharmony among Christians only serves our own egos, not Christ. By diminishing another Christian’s efforts, we are chancing the loss of a soul to seek God in a non-Christian light. That soul is not ours to loose. It is not the proper way to serve God. And with that, I think this discussion should be over. Brian |

4 | Creating converts to Islam? | 1 Cor 1:12 | Reformer Joe | 33297 | ||
Brian: You wrote: "It is not the proper way to serve God." Tell that to the student at my school who has grown up a stranger to Christ in a nominally Catholic environment but came to embrace Christ rather than the church of Rome on Saturday. If the RCC and its magisterium actually didn't raise individuals to be complete strangers to Christ, then maybe your argument would hold some water. Fact is, just like my mother-in-law did several decades ago, this student has found eternal life apart from the local Catholic parish and not within it. Hence the need for a Reformation... --Joe! |

5 | Creating converts to Islam? | 1 Cor 1:12 | CDBJ | 33311 | ||
Joe, my wife found the truth about Jesus in spite of spending all of her years of growing up in Catholic schools and attending the Catholic church. The true church of Christ isn't an organization it is an organism and only those that have been born into God's family are genuine members. It is impossible to convince those that aren't members that they that they don't really belong, but once the Holy Spirit does his work the change is phenomenal to say the least. But this doesn't happen unless the one in question gives up everything that they are trusting in and turns to Jesus for full assurance! | ||||||
