NO. How can she be my sister if we don't even have the same gospel, we do not edify one another, she is as alien to me as Jehovah Witnesses.She is a universalist. I don't consider universalists to be Christian. That doesn't mean she is not saved.
Wow that's interesting. So who are sisters and brothers to you?? Only those who profess your particular doctrine? Baptists?? Catholics?? Anyone who calls themselves Christian?? (certainly there are caveats?). And with that cleared up, I wonder what you intended to convey in saying she is not a sister (such a bland, broad, non-specific statement that seems so clearly to be from spite - in essence a statement that says, "you're not family". And if you don't mean she's not a sister in Christ, what on EARTH DID you mean, sir?? How can she possibly be saved and NOt be a sister in Christ?? Boy oh boy.

What do you want Ruby? blood? or do you want me to lie? I base this off scripture. I didn't take it lightly. I have told you the truth, you don't agree with it, fine but do not bash me because your opinions conflict.

So, here's the meat - according to your judgments, a person can be saved but not be a Christian. Wow. Didn't expect to ear that! Surely you want to restate what you really mean??

Christy......I am sure you love Jesus just like JW and Mormons do too
Then the only difference between me and you is "your" doctrine...correct?
I love Jesus, I am saved and I will reap the same benefits you do when this life is over....so other than the man made doctrine that separates us because I choose to believe the best of God...you don't consider me a Christian or your sister....correct?

Christygirl that is all they have doctrine and traditions of man . It's a "Doctrine Club" , to be considered a member you have to swear allegiance to all they believe .

If you say I am judging you, then you just made a judgment call that I judged you therefore you judged me.
I have a brain and don't use it to chase my tail (or yours) as you go round and round. We are sharing our ideas about judgment and you are escaping responding with tail chasing and finger pointing. Sorry but I am going to leave you to that too. If you look closely I have made no judgments at all, at leasst non like calling a Christ loving person not part of the family of God. I keep my judgments and assessments to what I can see, touch, feel, hear - what you have said in other words, not your soul, or your heart (except in how it is shown in what you have written, and then I am mostly clear to say "seems to be", leaving you room to correct me, and back up that correction). I have no idea what God will say to you in the end nor do I consider it my business. . . . I like the conversation about judgment. You are right, an awful lot of it is in the world - wars have be started because of it's rampant overuse. Many have died in it's wake. Likely many of them innocent. Again and again I say, why not leave the big jobs to the Bossman?? Leave us to quibble over what little we can wrap out brains around - like what we see and hear, and leave the unseen (hearts and souls) to the Big Guy?? Seems prudent.
