I can call myself a Queen. That doesn't mean I really am.

What's a "good Christian"? Is it one that doesn't sin? Or perhaps someone who doesn't commit a particular sin? Either way, with that definition, I think all of us are pretty bad sinners.
Sleeping around is definitely a sinful nature. But not beyond Jesus' forgiveness... Don't worry much about achieving justice in this world, cause it'll happen in due time. Let that person know that you are not judging them, but that they may not understand that their lifestyle doesn't seem to be an exemplary one.

They're decieving themselves...

(2Ti 4:3) For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
(2Ti 4:4) And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.

(Rom 1:29) Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
(Rom 1:30) Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
(Rom 1:31) Without understanding, covenant breakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
(Rom 1:32) Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

Better yet! Why do "churchs" allow them to remain members without repenting???

(1Co 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 a one no not to eat.
(1Co 5:12) For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within?
(1Co 5:13) But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.

The great thing about being christian is you can do ANYTHING (rob, murder, drink, smoke, f.. etc) and the great lord jesus in the sky will forgive you.. And if you donate lots of money to the church and brainwash others to do the same, you can gamble and play with prostitutes like the big tele-evangelists do!

We are supposed to be able to judge actions using God's law. We are not supposed to judge people. Any person violating God's law will suffer consequences in this life. That's what the Bible means when it says that God is not mocked in Galatians 6 verse 7.

sometimes wheather your a christian or not, people make mistakes, if they are truly sorry god will forgive them. ive never slept around, i have one child from my marriage. but ive committed other sins in my life, it doesnt mean im not a real christian, cause i really do believe in and love jesus w/ all my heart. christians arent perfect, only forgiven.

The answer to that question is that they cannot be considered a good Christian. It is NOT biblical. It is not following Christ.

They cannot reconcile their behavior and still call themselves a Christian. if they're doing these things out of wedlock or in an adulterous fashion, it is sin plain and simple.

because they have been tought that since Jesus died on a cross for our sins, then they are the children of God and loved ones. what matter they do, it's ok.

sadly they know not.

Knowingly committing sin after sin, is never forgiven.
