"women not being submissive, men not taking the lead"?

Gender doesn't affect intelligence. I don't see why this is an issue.
Preach it brother! :thumbsup:

As for 'conservative?'

I believe the Bible is the inerrent word of God. I don't desire to stray far from it, though I do battle with my fleshly nature. I am fundementalist in my beliefs, but what I feel what the Bible says might be 'differant' then what many fundies are 'supposed' to believe.

I'm not Republican. (I'm a Democrat. And not all Democrats are liberal.)

I am an environmentalist.

I believe in equality for women, but I am not a 'secular feminist.'

I believe we should love gays, even as we believe homosexual acts and lust is immoral. (They think we hate them above all the other 'sinners.')

So I'm conservative :thumbsup:

You people are wasting your lives. Why would your life revolve around some idiot you don't even know exists! Praise god, worship god, become gods mindless slave, its all crap. Your blinded by your dumb faith. Jesus was just some moron who helped create another useless religion. You owe him nothing. He's not real. Besides, why would you love some nonexistant guy who tells you to moniter everything you think and feel? It puts you in a cage. You are unable to actually live life if your worried about sinning for everything you do. Get a life!
Anon789, you are obviously very ignorant about The Bible and The gospel of Jesus Christ. The whole reason that most of the world rejects Jesus is that God has given man a free will! He has NOT put us in a cage. You are free to go to Hell or to repent of your sins and live eternally. I suggest you read a book called "A Case for Christianity". It will change your mind and change your life.

So you say but you may be mistaken. One day you will have to either stand on your words or eat them.

As for life we have one and more of one than you can even comprehend while you are bound in your chains and blinded by your hatred. So really you can't even see or hear. The one you scorn can fix that but He will only do it if you let Him. The choice is yours and right now it seems that you have made an erroneous choice.

To me, both sides of the spectrum are rather unfavorable sense both sides only seem to be right about half the issues and then they have their own contradictions and it just gets unbearable.

Morderate and independant Christians FTW. I wish we had our own section.

Anyone who professes Christ should be diligently studying the Bible in order to understand the will if not the mind of God (to such extent that such understanding is possible) and help us identify those 'Christianities' that will only lead the gullible to hell.

There is no 'liberal', 'conservative' or 'moderate' Christian but only those who profess Christ and serve Him and those who profess Christ and yet embrace the ways of men over the ways of the Lord (the Matthew 7 'Lord, Lord' crowd).

Satan is very clever and has introduced many heresies to 'Christianity' that seem plausible when scripture taken out of context is used to justify it thus 'judge not lest ye be judged' is taken to mean we should not judge at all, 'faith' and 'believing in Jesus' are taken to be the signs of the true Christian and that actual obedience on our part which produces the works or righteousness are dismissed as unimportant and if the obedient Christian protests they are condemned as a heretic trying to 'earn' salvation by such works or God telling us to care for the poor is used to justify statist political/economic systems which 'spread the wealth' totally ignoring that we are also commanded not to steal and that although God calls for us to preach the gospel we are also commanded to not be busybodys in other mens matters (1 Peter 4:15).

Why call ye me Lord, Lord and do not the things which I say?

Hi I'm a Liberal Christian looking for directions to the "Libirels r smartar" party.

The only thing you will find is a place where deception rules and reality is thrown in the trash can. If you ever decide that you want to deal honestly with the truth then come back any time. Ya'll enjoy your mutual butt patting.

There are actually quite a few things in The Bible which could be classified as "Liberal ideas/ways", but the definition of "Liberal" [these days] is much dirtier, radical and immoral than it was even 50 years ago.

The "original Liberalism" of this country was [basically] based on a more compassionate and "helpful" or involved approach to government, while today's Liberals are so far to the left of this that John F. Kennedy was more Conservative than Ronald Reagan and many of today's [so called] "Conservatives" on many levels.

Whether a "Liberal Christian can be or is "qualified" to be a "Christian" [or not] is up to GOD, and all I will commit to is a firm belief that [at least] it must be a much more difficult path to walk.

Romans if any one adheres to this:

They believe the Bible to be a valuable resource, but not free from error.


do not view homosexuality or sexual reassignment as sin or unnatural.

then they are in serious trouble, according to Gods own word, not mine. You see I just agree with God not what people want to dream up, including me. There was a time when I believed that you could walk the fence and live and let live and it didn't matter. Thanks be to God for shaking me loose from my own insanity. You see in the end we either stand with God or we will be standing somewhere else. I have chosen my stand and anyone that says they are a liberal Christian and follow those two edicts, among others, that come straight from their own words, are not following God nor what His word says is true. The rest should be apparent to all from there so I will let you make your own discernment about what is right and wrong according to God, not me or anyone else.

What I mean is the world seems to be filling up with liberal Christianity by the minute. Those who decide it is ok to drink in moderation or do drugs because God made them or date several people at once, look at inappropriate material because it "does not hurt anyone", accepting of worldly ways and things. Women not being submissive, men not taking the lead, woman dressing provocatively, men "checking out" every woman who walks by. Those are just a few examples. The list goes on for miles. Nobody seems to be concerned with avoiding the appearance of evil these days. Ok, just my two cents :idea:

Satan has had about 2,000 years to corrupt Christianity itself and millenia more to learn what techiques work in leading men astray or if that fails in lessening the joy the saved should have in their relationship with God. 'Liberal' Christianity is an oxymoron but there are false beliefs that have worked their way into even 'conservative' Christianity. Thoughts about hell, the consumption of wine, charity, repentance and obedience or legislating morals that many 'conservative' Christians hold are at odds with what the Bible teaches.

Despite God telling us not to be busybodys in other mens matters (1 Peter 4:15) in an effort to fight the evils of alcohol and drug abuse we have opened a Pandora's box of other evils like criminal enterprises growing rich on illegal alcohol/drugs and acquiring such power that they have threatend even the stability of governments as was seen in Colombia and have devastated communities across the U.S.

In thinking we are showing compassion for those in need we have gone along with the implementation of social welfare programs run by the government despite God directly telling us to seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and NOT to put our trust in princes (government) or the son of man (Psalm 146:3) with the result that these programs have undercut the social safety net that God had created and actually harmed many they have been intended to help (the harm including teaching men not to rely on God but on the institutions of men) and unless addressed will bankrupt our nation.

So although there is much to chastise 'liberal' Christians for we conservative Christians have also shown our own flashes of disobedience to God's word.

"Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." (2 Timothy 2:15)

You cannot be in God's will and call yourself a "liberal". If you look at the basis for the two terms, conservative and liberal, it boils down to this:

A conservative holds on to the teachings, traditions, and commandments of Jesus and His Apostles and determines to hold on tight to these. A conservative says "here's what the Bible says and I believe it". A conservative resists new teachings, strange teachings, and false teachings that are not a part of God's Word.

A liberal says that the teachings, traditions, and commandments of Jesus and His Apostles are old and outdated and therefore subject to change. A liberal picks and chooses what he or she believes is "relevant" to today's society and ignores the rest. A liberal tends to add new teachings, strange teachings, and false teachings in order to create lies from truth.
