[Luke50]

Come to the one and only true faith.

The Orthodox Church.

If you're protestant, there is still time to find the right path.

I just want the best for my Brothers and Sisters.

All glory be to the father, the son, and the holy spirit, one god, amen.

Since "judging" came up, it should be noted that we are called to judge. Jesus makes that abundantly clear. So if we don't judge we are deficient. What Jesus makes plane is that we should never judge self righteously, hastily (without evidence) or hypocritically.

Jesus didn’t teach against judging, nor did He relieve His followers of the need for discerning right and wrong, but He condemned unjust hypocritical judging of others. (Matt 6:43-45).

When people says "do not judge," this is called the law of non-contradiction. They are "judging" when they say that. If one says there is no standard of "morality," they've already made a standard of morality. It's funny because the person doesn't even realize that fact.

We are called to judge. Jesus makes that abundantly clear. So if we don't judge we are deficient. What Jesus makes plane is that we should never judge self righteously, hastily (without evidence) or hypocritically.

Jesus didn’t teach against judging, nor did He relieve His followers of the need for discerning right and wrong, but He condemned unjust hypocritical judging if others. (Matt 6:43-45). He taught against a specific kind of judging. The type of judging he spoke against was a blind, ignorant, hypocritical, self-righteous judging that overlooks one’s own faults, failures and sins and only sees faults, failures and sins in other people.

Leviticus 19:15 (NIV)
Do not pervert justice; do not show partiality to the poor or favoritism to the great, but judge your neighbor fairly.

Leviticus 19:17 (NIV-1984)
Rebuke your neighbor frankly so you will not share his guilt.

Jesus said:
John 7:24 (NIV)
Stop judging by mere appearances, but instead judge correctly."

The issue Jesus is going after is the pride that was in the people’s hearts which made it easy for them to see other people’s faults, but be blinded to their own. And notice what Jesus called them “you hypocrite.” Now, what’s a hypocrite? Someone who pretends to be something they aren’t. Here Jesus is going after people who wear a mask of piety over a heart that was judgmental, critical, and self-righteous toward others.

If you are following anything other than the path (of life (which is synonymous with the kingdom you are translated into, and) that is in you, you are headed the wrong way.

The path is narrow, hard to find, until it is narrowed down to being in you.

If you're following the way "Once saved, always saved" you need to turn around.

I simply follow where he leads me ... but there's really no reason to pick up serpents, at least not for myself ...

The Orthodox church IS the widest Christian path.

Matthew:
13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

Hold on a second. You can't just come here and do a "drive by" without explaining your above post. What exactly do you mean that the "Orthodox Church is the widest christian path?"

Do you have an example backing your claim? I'm really interested in your thoughts on this because I've never heard a claim like that about the Orthodox.

Well, there is only one way to heaven.

 

[tampasteve]

"You ask, will the heterodox be saved... Why do you worry about them? They have a Saviour Who desires the salvation of every human being. He will take care of them. You and I should not be burdened with such a concern. Study yourself and your own sins... I will tell you one thing, however: should you, being Orthodox and possessing the Truth in its fullness, betray Orthodoxy, and enter a different faith, you will lose your soul forever." - Blessed Theophan the Recluse

Well, there is only one way to heaven.

And that 'way to heaven' certainly isn't by 'your church', 'my church', 'any church'. It is by HIM.

How will you find him when you're on the wrong way ? Pls this is getting nowhere

 

[Goatee]

Orthodox. Yes, i think the 'Catholic' church is the 'right' way, even though some of its teachings and ways may be questionable.

I believe that Jesus started 'His' church and that church is the 'Catholic' church. Be it western, eastern, Roman etc. I like the Orthodox church. I really need to find a good book to read about it!

 

[Tigger45]

John 14:6

Jesus answered, "I am the way..."

It's only getting nowhere if you're following one who is wrong IMO.
