What Profit?

[Rober H]

No one is called to be an idolater.

We are called from serving false god's and idols.

1 Corinthians 12:2 Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led.

2 Corinthians 6:16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

1 Thessalonians 1:9 For they themselves shew of us what manner of entering in we had unto you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God;

Hindu's do not worship the true God and neither do Buddhists.

According to the charlatons there really is no need to turn from idols or preach the gospel.

Everybody is saved except those who want to preach the gospel and turn people from idols.

These deluded folks must serve another Jesus and have another gospel.

The gods and goddesses of the Hindus' might be their god's but true Christians worship the true God.

1 Corinthians 8:5 For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many,)

1 Corinthians 8:6 But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.

Revelation 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

I think this is a great post.. 2 thumbs up.

We can judge people by the doctrines they teach.. Mother Teresa's beliefs and teachings are public knowledge and written in her own words.

Teaching people to be better Hindu's and Buddhists is not preaching the gospel.

"What profit it a man if he gains the whole world and lose his soul?"

1 Corinthians 7:20

Let every man abide in the same calling wherein he was called.

I sincerely hope you are not advocating that a Hindu or Buddhist can find God outside of Christianity; that, my friend, is blasphemous and of the spirit of the antichrist.

i am saying that jesus loves hindus and buddhists and died for them just as much as you. what is so special about christianity? jesus loves them too, not JUST them only. are you a religious bigot? where do you think christianity came from, anyway? it didnt come from jesus. most of it is rehashed paganism with a dash of judaism. christmas is the roman saturnalia and easter is ancient babylonian and pagan mysticism. nothing that is going to save anybody. only jesus is the savior, and he says whosever will to the lord may come, not just who you choose. in fact:

1And Jesus answered and spake unto them again by parables, and said,

2The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son,

3And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come.

4Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come unto the marriage.

5But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise:

6And the remnant took his servants, and entreated them spitefully, and slew them.

7But when the king heard thereof, he was wroth: and he sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city.

8Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy.

9Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage.

10So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests.

you have put me in fine company. thank you.

That is what the bible says too. The rest of the quote stinks so bad I won't repeat it.

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

John 3:17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

John 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

You have to "believe in Jesus Christ" to be saved!

All true believers were once children of wrath. They may have been (past tense) Hindu's or Buddhists or been called Baptist or Catholic.

A Hindu believes in false god's. Buddhists believe in reincarnation. It is possible to go to a Christian church that preaches the true gospel and still not be saved.

I have personally known men who attended solid bible believing churches from birth and realized one day that they really didn't understand the gospel. I listened to their testimonies about how and when the "penny dropped" and how they finally believed and cried out to God to save them through the finished work of our great God and Saviour Jesus Christ on the cross.

Here is the proof that all men are children of wrath until they believe.

Ephesians 2:2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:

Ephesians 2:3 Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.

Ephesians 2:4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,

Ephesians 2:5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved

Ephesians 2:7 That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.

Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

Ephesians 2:9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.

We are saved by grace through faith!

End of story!

Heresy at it's finest!

you have put me in fine company. thank you.

So you like being in the same company as Gnostics, new agers, Jehovah's Witnesses, and other heretical groups?

Grace to you,

Child,

Who is Jesus to you?

Peace,

Some people misuse the parables such as the parable of the Wheat and the Tares or the parable of the Mustard Seed to say we cannot expose error in the church or separate from those in error.

Jesus explains what these parables mean so that we won't be ignorant.

Matthew 13:37 He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;

Matthew 13:38 The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;

The field is the world not the church. We are not to punish those in the world for their failure to understand God's word.

At the end of this present world those who reject Christ are punished.

Matthew 13:40 As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.

We are to preach the gospel to the lost. We are to separate from those who preach heresey.

As you can see those who live "good lives" by the world's standards but reject the word of God profit nothing!

Paul clearly tells us to stay away from fornicators in the church.

1 Corinthians 5:9 I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators:

1 Corinthians 5:10 Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world.

1 Corinthians 5:11 But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.

1 Corinthians 5:12 For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within?

1 Corinthians 5:13 But them that are without God judgeth.Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.

Jesus pointed out leaven (sin and bad doctrine) and so should we.

Matthew 16:6-12 Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.

7 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have taken no bread.

8 Which when Jesus perceived, he said unto them, O ye of little faith, why reason ye among yourselves, because ye have brought no bread?

9 Do ye not yet understand, neither remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?

10 Neither the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?

11 How is it that ye do not understand that I spake it not to you concerning bread, that ye should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees?

12 Then understood they how that he bade them not beware of the leaven of bread, but of the DOCTRINE of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.

Ignorance is bliss for those who wish to create and promote another Jesus instead of knowing the Jesus of the bible!

Their words and lives profit them nothing!
