judge" means more than hating and trying to tell someone they are going to hell because they do not believe the way you do and you use the bible. You honestly think that is right?? Being judgmental like that?? That because I am not doing the same make me a bad Christian??

there is no love when someone says you are going to hell because you do not believe the way I do. I am a Christian... I heard other Christians say to different Christians. some Baptist say to Catholics, Epsicapals, and Perbyterians

I am tired of talking to people that believe differently then Christians and having them ask me" do you think I am going to hell because I am not a Christian" and having to say I am so sorry someone said that to you that is not our place to judge anyone that is God place. I do not put myself in God's place to judge us.... do you??? I am tired of few people saying because I am Presbyterian I am going to hell!!! I am so glad you think so well yourselves to sit in judgment of me!!!!

I don't think you are a bad Christian for that. OK so I am not a Christian but I do believe that actions speak louder than words. I don't think everyone has to go out and tell non Christians they are going to hell. That isn't going to get anyone for your God. You show people what Christians are like and that brings people to you and not push them away. How can that be bad?

As a Christian the bible says to look at yourself before you start to judge and pointing out others faults. No one is perfect that's why we ask Jesus to forgive us of our sins.And in the bible it says judge as you want to be judge because the way you judge others that's the way God will judge you also. So its okay to judge if we couldn't judge then we wouldn't be able to pick what job, college, friends, relationships and so on are good. But i don't think its right to prosecute and accuse others. Let God take care of that judgment. The best things is to be a living example of a christian! That's how you can truly make a difference.

As skypilot has stated it is not about the sinner it is about the sin. Anything that is not of God, is of something else. Planting something else seeds, results in something else harvested. It is what is harvested that gives away a person real position. It is the results that are judged not the person. The fruit of ones labor is easily discerned.
It is sorta knowing that if someone keeps going down a certain road there is something at the end of that road that is a danger to their existence. So, when someone appears to be judging, perhaps they are simply giving you a warning about the results of your labor, if it does not change. Out of LOVE not hate. Otherwise, lets face reality, why in the World would they care?

Well now, we have some thinkers. Apparently there are a lot of Christians giving each other a bad name because of their high-minded opinions. This crap about people going to hell because they don't believe as you do has me irked too. I won't mention any names, but one church in SLC, has brainwashed someone to have judged me. Only God knows what's in my heart. Only God knows who is going where and when. You stupid so-called Christian idiots who claim to know who is going to hell and who is not, know nothing. You have been brainwashed and cannot think on your own. Sheep! that's all you are. Thank God, I have not been brainwashed into judging others based on what some pastor or preacher tells me. God lives in my heart and tells me what to do. He says live by the golden rule, and you will do just fine.... 'NUFF SAID?

We all have our own beliefs. Who's right nobody knows except God. A person who sits in judgment of others views on Christianity needs to realize that we are all different and they should let people alone and let them believe as they see fit and they should be more worried about themselves than others.

Would someone like to provide chapter and verse that says "love the sinner, hate the sin" because I don't believe I've ever seen that in the Bible. Matt 7:1-5 doesn't say anything like that.

God loves the sinner but hates the sin. I do not judge you as a person (oooh, you're bad, you're going to hell) but I judge what you are doing (hey, you might want to think about doing that, I don't think God likes it).

Please realize there are many imposter's on this site claiming themselves Christian in reality being anti-christian. There questions/statements are used to stir people up. Do not believe everything you read. JUDGE with wisdom.
1. Would a real Christian say these things
2. What other questions has this person asked.
