I am a Christian and my only enemy is the devil. So, what does that mean about me?

The problem I have with certain Christians and it's not all of them but some tend to go on and judge people and say things about them when they don't even know the person that they are judging. I have been pre judged by some Christians right off the bat. I can ask sincere questions and they simply hate me. That doesn't sound too loving to me. Oh and to always go by what the bible says isn't being much of a free thinker either.

Isaiah says "come, let us reason together"
Paul wrote that we should love God "with all our mind..."
In Acts, Luke writes about Christians testing everything taught to them against the Scriptures (thats the Old Testament, by the way. The New Testament had not been complied yet).
I am always amused and saddened when I hear people calling Christians mindless, stupid, "sheep", etc. Amused because so very many of us are not. Saddened because unfortunately, so very many of us are.

"And for this reason God shall deliver them solid myth, that they ought to have faith a lie: That all of them may be damned who believed no longer the actuality, yet had excitement in unrighteousness. - 2 Thessalonians 2:11-12" that's the ideal variety of subject I argue, while it is composed of unfastened will. We may be 'unfastened to decide on what we choose' yet we at the instant are not unfastened to 'choose what we choose'. This bible passage for sure exhibits the flaw in God's thinking. God and his idiotic followers could look down on those human beings suggested right here - without realising the bleeding obtrusive, that if a being has had a 'solid myth' programmed into them, a 'lie' programmed into them - and if a being features extra excitement from being 'unrighteous' than 'righteous', then it fairly is GOD'S fault, no longer the being. the thought that God makes somebody deluded, and then blames them for 'determining on' issues in keeping with their myth is in simple terms embarrassing.......and it would make god the biggest 'framer' in history. Making human beings solid or undesirable, then useful or punishing them for performing how he designed them to desire to act. ____ "and of course, in this verse, it says people who're damned that there is no longer something we are able to do approximately it." certainly - and it is not in simple terms them, that's actual everyone created with the help of god, in a 'god-made-each and every little thing' universe. no person designs and creates their own needs. A mass murderer never asks to get kicks from being a mass murderer. A philanthropist never asked to get a buzz from assisting unlucky human beings. they only ALREADY had to do what they had to do, and then acted on their needs, that have been no longer created with the help of themselves interior the 1st place.

Rather,believe the revealed word of God,or you are God's enemy and He will decide your eternal destiny.
Your argument is with God. Christians did not make up the rules...we are the middlemen,that follow them and share them with those who will hear.

You are incorrect in your understanding of The True Christian Faith... you are only an enemy of a Christian if you declare yourself to be... by word or action... no True Christian would make that declaration...and it is only by rejecting god that any one is going to find themselves rejected by God... it is the individuals choice to reject and suffer the consequences or accept what God offers to all and receive the rewards earned.

The Bible says we can have the mind of Christ. If man tells us something, we are taught by God to go to the scriptures to see if they are in harmony with Gods inspired scriptures. We obey God as ruler rather than men.

The word Belief is the greatest contridiction to what you have just said, and to that of your religion. Contemplate the word if you are so free, I dare you.

No it's not. A lot of Christians don't fit in the general description of a 'Christian'.
