Wow, long post. A couple of comments: >Its just most unfortunate that it is often difficult to distinguish the goats from the sheep. Is it my job as a Christian to read a man's heart to know if he is a "goat" or a "sheep"? That's one job I don't want - too hard. I'll let God sort that one out. >The time is coming, and it is coming soon that everyone will be accountable. [emphasis mine] Be careful with predicting when the end times will come (saying "soon" is such a prediction), everyone who predicted this anytime but in the recent past has been proven wrong. What is more relevant to me is that (probably) in the next 40-100 years, I will be held accountable. [well, with Grace, "held accountable" isn't the right term, but I'm not looking forward to being reminded how many times I p*ssed in God's face and just how unworthy of that Grace I am.] -d (david_tx on IRC) |
