Hi aa,

I have been away from the thread for a while. I see you have become a prolific poster here lately. I just wanted to make a few comments for your consideration. The problems start when someone decides when they can be the judge of who the good or bad children are. After all, if a murderer can receive forgiveness at the 11th hour how can anyone judge the murderer as deserving to be cast out into the outer darkness in the 10th hour? God is the only righteous judge, no one else can do that for Him. He has even warned us not to. "Vengence is mine, I will repay." He has not finished with the work He is doing here on earth.

I believe that many so called Christians will be weeping and gnashing their teeth after the judgement. I would rather deal out mercy so I can receive mercy, as the word says. I pray I don't fall into the "judgement trap" that has overcome a good portion of the church today. The church in the USA has fallen for the temptation to judge others. It's a very serious thing, judging. And Paul wrote that it was to be done very sparingly. And to the church alone, not the unsaved. Why would we judge the unsaved. It's none of our business. Paul preached Christ crucified, not the law of works. But today christians point the finger at the unsaved as if they were obligated to keep some law of christian conduct. They are under no such obligation. Many people here are christians, but some aren't. They are not the "fundementalist" variety like those that hang out on Ask God. They are also nicer than many so called christians I've known. And they act towards others more like God wants than many fundamentalists. Love your neighbor as yourself? On "feelings" I see more of that than on Ask God where the christians back bite each other and the unsaved alike. At least they are no respecter of persons! LOL. They are getting at least one thing right!!
