That's cause El Shadday isn't a Christian.


The True Christian is one who tries his best to control his moral imperfections and makes self analysis every day to see where failed with his neighbor to not fail the other day. :hug:

I disagree.


Well, that's because you don't understand the core beliefs of a Christian.

Calling yourself something doesn't make you that something. It's like when a female with a brain disorder identifies as a male.

It's silly to believe some of Jesus's words and deny the rest.

You should probably not wipe your arse the next time you take a shit then.

You can say he isn't christian all you like but you are not the arbiter of who is and who isn't. Don't give me that no true Scotsman shit. You're just a different kind of christian than he is.

...no , that is not my interpretation...that is the interpretation and teaching of Christianity since its revealing through the Apostle Paul and those early church leaders like Peter and James . It's all there for the reading if you so choose .

No, we must lean on sound Christian scholarship to know who is and who isn't.

Lol @ bold. I'll say again... announcing that you are Christian... or Muslim... or Buddhist... does not make you any of those things if your beliefs lie elsewhere. Words have meaning.

Say it as many times as you like. El Shadday follows the teachings of Christ. That's his interpretation of what it means to be a Christian. Plenty of other christians deny the divinity of christ or the existence of god - they are called Christian Atheists. It's an unorthodox view... but there are little to no christians alive today that have a view exact to the views of early Christianity and it is a view shared by some theologians and ex-theists much more qualified than you to speak on the subject.

That's the reality. You don't like it then that's your problem. Cry more.

No, plenty of other people who identify as Christian deny the divinity of Christ or the existence of God. They are not Christians. Believing that Christ was a good moral teacher does not make you a Christian.

Let me ask this... is there any standard of belief for being a Christian? Or a Buddhist? Or a Muslim? Is identifying as something the only standard for being something?
