Simplicity of Life
I may be a little out of line saying this but Who are we to say who is a Christian and who isn't???? WOW this sounds totally ludicrous. Do we really have to have acceptance from others in order to be a "true" christian.
Galatians 6:3 If anyone thinks he is something when he is nothing, he deceives himself Each one should test his own actions. Then he can take pride in himself without comparing himself to somebody else for each one should carry his own load.
Galatians 5:19-26 The acts of the sinful nature are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery: idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions, and envy; drunkeness, orgies and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law. Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature with its passion and desires Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying each other.

The Shrubs and the Flan.
So even if they totally twist around the Bible to suit their own purposes, we can't even be discerning because we have no right to "judge"? Sorry. That's a really dangerous concept.
The accusations have gone down.
Praying is working! Of course

Ok...got a quick reply.
My childhood friend was baptized as a Catholic (as a child).......
But now (at 27 years old) is a very avid athiest.....
So if he was baptized is he still Catholic?
Just wondering you all's views
As some of my relatives say..God does not look at what denomination we are.....He looks within the heart of each individual!

To Angel:
Your friend still has the indelible mark of baptism on his soul. But it takes more than Baptism to get you into Heaven. Our life here on earth is a journey, and your friend has taken his own detour.
Let's all pray he listens to the Holy Spirit speak to his soul, and he gets back on the right path. If he should do just that, he won't need to be re-baptized.
Peace be with you,
~VOW
