What's up with the attitude of some Christians?
I've been seeing some pretty harsh and loveless answers on the board and it needs to stop. For those of you who call your self Christian, why do you feel the need to drag Christ through the mud to make your point? You don't need to call people fools or damn them to hell - that's not your place.
People - I'm not saying that we shouldn't correct but we should correct in love and that is where many of you are lacking. Sure, we can quote scripture and show them that they are reprobate but you should all be inclined to remember that you too once hated God. None of you was born saved.

I will let God judge them, it's only our job to spread the Word of God.

I don't know what is up. I have had a view that is not mainstream. I have been targeted with hate for this view. I often get frustrated and might seem harsh myself. Yet the Christ spirit is all that is good. Christ hates nor allows us to condemn anyone. Yet we ignore Christ and do as we wish.

Are you saying we shouldn't quote the Bible?
Psalms:14:1: The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

Haven't called any fools lately but I have called a few goobers. If it walks like a goober and talks like a goober then I am just naming it as a goober. Some of these people have become a species all their own so I wanted to be the first to name them and I like the name goobers.

So you can not tell a fool by their folly, we can. And why not tell them, for they make seek knowledge and understanding once they realize they are just a fool. God says they are fools, and we are not to take part of their folly, but we can tell them the truth.
We are here to tell the truth, are we not?
bless you.

I recommend praying the rosary for Christians who behave in an un-Christlike way. The rosary is God's preferred means for obtaining conversions. The Virgin Mary has recommended that we pray it daily for the conversion of sinners. See the following promises.
The rosary is explained here:
http://www.sancta.org/rosary/how.html
The fifteen promises of Mary to Christians who recite the rosary:
1. Whoever shall faithfully serve me by the recitation of the Rosary shall receive signal graces.
2. I promise my special protection and the greatest graces to all those who shall recite the Rosary.
3. The Rosary shall be a powerful armor against Hell, it will destroy vice, decrease sin, and defeat heresies.
4. It will cause virtue and good works to flourish; it will obtain for souls the abundant mercy of God; it will withdraw the hearts of men from the love of the world and its vanities and will lift them to the desire of eternal things. Oh, that souls would sanctify themselves by this means.
5. The soul which recommends itself to me by the recitation of the Rosary, shall not perish.
6. Whoever shall recite the Rosary devoutly, applying himself to the consideration of its sacred mysteries, shall never be conquered by misfortune. God will not chastise him in His justice, he shall not perish by an unprovided death; if he be just, he shall remain in the grace of God and become worthy of eternal life.
7. Whoever shall have a true devotion for the Rosary shall not die without the Sacraments of the Church.
8. Those who are faithful to recite the Rosary shall have during their life and at their death the light of God and the plenitude of His graces; at the moment of death, they shall participate in the merits of the saints in Paradise.
9. I shall deliver from Purgatory those who have been devoted to the Rosary.
10. The faithful children of the Rosary shall merit a high degree of glory in Heaven.
11. You shall obtain all you ask of me by the recitation of the Rosary.
12. All those who propagate the Holy Rosary shall be aided by me in their necessities.
13. I have obtained from my Divine Son that all the advocates of the Rosary shall have for intercessors the entire Celestial Court during their life and at the hour of death.
14. All who recite the Rosary are my sons, and brothers of my only Son, Jesus Christ.
15. Devotion to my Rosary is a great sign of predestination.
God bless!
