[QUOTE="Aussie Pete, post: 76389684, member: 421731"] You've identified a serious problem with so-called Christianity. Way too many "conversions" are simply mental assent to a set of facts. Compare the very start of the church in the book of Acts with what we see today. Lord Jesus said that we must be born again. That is the minimum requirement even to see the Kingdom of God. An individual must be convicted of sin, and that is a heart, not a mind thing. Again, the first Christians were "cut to the heart" (Acts 2:37). They said, "What must we do...?" If you have a church full of people that see Christianity as little more than a social club or "get out of hell free" card, they will be superficial. They will treat others superficially also. At least they won't murder you if you quit being a Christian. [/QUOTE]
