I think mine's on backorder.
But quite a few people seem to have obtained the model that comes with the extra-special Heart Judge attachment. All they have to do is enter the name of the church someone attends, knowing nothing else about them, and voila! They can discern the exact state of that person's heart & personal relationship with Christ. It's truly amazing.

Well everyone will eventually have to kneel down before God in order to make it into Heaven, but a very honest Christian has to have made some mistakes in their life because there is no "perfect" Christian or person for that matter. As long as both the honest but not pure Christian and the habitual liar confess their sins, then both of their souls will make it into Heaven.

I am of The True Christian Faith. I can not tell you for sure who else is or is not... with certain rare exceptions for those who are not and never will be... Only God has the power to confer the title of Christian...
But... there are those, who by their clear example, do not, in any way, show themselves to be Christians... any one who actively denounces The Faith and actively works against The Faith and actively attacks The Faith and those of The Faith... IMO... are not Christians.
No man, "religion", "denomination, sect, cult, or individual statement or act or "work" can make any one a True Christian.
And there is no way I can prove to any one that I am... even though I know for certain that I am.
All who come to God in The Way He prescribes will receive His free gift of Salvation... those become part of The Body of The Church of which Jesus The Christ is The Head. Those are the ones of The True Christian Faith. Only those of The Church will enter Heaven.

Try Target or Home Depot or Walmart....maybe Lowes.
I jest, it is pretty simple, the Bible defines the correct practice that will identify the end-time Christians:
Revelations 14:12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.....
...... 22:14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.

LOL, i wish they sold these, i wouldn't be having the inner turmoil i am having right now about some 'christians'!!! God talks about the gift of discernment (knowing what's really going on and the agenda behind it) in the Bible, and i have been praying to receive that so i will not be fooled by wolves in sheep clothing.

Oh dear, you've been misled. It's not a meter at all, but an extra special x-ray machine. See, we have this image of Jesus and when we want to find out if someone is a "true" Christian, we hold them up to that image, hit the thwapper button and voila! we can see if there is any similarity at all.

The Bible is a guage. Jesus said, "By their fruits shall you know..."
Bad fruit, bad tree.
Different fruit, different tree.
An apple tree does not grow oranges.
A tree that bears bad fruit has a disease or insect problem.
A true Christians life is evident in how he lives. He may not be perfect, but he desires what Jesus wants for him. He knows what it is to have Jesus, not only as Savior, but as Lord.

Isn't the "true Christian-o-meter" part of the initiative GWB talked about recently, it's available only to true Republicans who support him about his war.

Well, I'm not going to consider someone a Christian who says they are not one, but if someone claims to be a Christian, I'm going to leave that to God to decide. I think it's obvious to anyone that some who claim Christ are not Christians, but that isn't for me or for any other human to decide who is and who isn't. The Lord knows our hearts, we are not to judge other men's hearts.
