Shouldn't restrictions be placed on born again christians?

Question

When it comes to religion, and sinning, these people cannot be trusted. It is easy to do all of the terrible things in the world, then ask for forgiveness and be "born again" but how do we know these people aren't going to try that crap again?

This should be handled like bankruptcy. A born again christian should have that on their church record for 7 years, just so other religious people are aware and can be causious for that time. That sounds like a good plan.

Sorry people, but I am not religious. So I don't care about sinning. I don't want to make excuses for what I have done and I don't care about being forgiven.

Answer 1

It's funny because christianity can neither refuse or except "born agains" because on the one hand, they've sinned against their god by not beleiving in it. But this "god" also has compassion for them. Christianity screws itself around which is why I left, FOR GOOD!

Answer 2

I thought when you confess that was between you and God ... not a committee of church members. You don't have a right to judge what has been discussed between another person and God. That is between them and God alone. He will decide if the confession was sincere.

Do you remember this question? How many times shall I forgive, two or three? Jesus' response was no, seven times seventy, which by the way doesn't mean 490. This is an infinite number.

I'm sure glad I don't have to answer to you. Everyone is guilty of sin and always will be. Where did you ever get the idea "born again Christians" should be perfect after they confess their sins? This is not true and you have been very much misguided in your beliefs if your statement and suggestion is true.

I hope and pray you are not judged in the next life like you appear to judge others right now. God have Mercy!!!

Answer 3

confident we are born returned Christians. every person who accepts Christs present of Salvation interior the direction of the indwelling of the Holy Spirit will become born of the Spirit and a sparkling advent. seventh day Adventists have confidence it quite is had to receiving Salvation by way of faith. confident we are protestant. We, as has been already suggested, are including different seventh day watching denominations, protecting a genuine protest against the change to worshipping on Sunday. We protest against following after the tradtions of fellows, and the Church of Rome admit total heartedly and brazenly to giving authority for the replace interior the day of relax. From Sabbath on the seventh day to Sunday the 1st day. This has no divine authority even though it became self appointed via the church of Rome.

Answer 4

Born again Christian is the same thing as a repeat offender. They''l just keep doing it and use church and religion as a scapegoat for forgiveness. Restrictions are necessary. Yes, I am a sinner too.

Answer 5

Psalm 103:12
As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.


Everyone sins. How many times have you lied this week. Did you tell a friend a fib. Where you completely honest about everything. If not why aren't you wearing a sign that proclaims you a liar so that everyone will be warned. Everyone sins but it is between a person and God what is in there heart. If we are truly walking with God we should be able to discern those who are not. But every one makes mistakes and even christians may lose there way at some point. Who are we to hold there sins against them.

Matthew 7:3
And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?

Answer 6

EVERY ONE has a right to be heard and a right to continue to sin, but to seek to dodge consequence as the born agains do is just not on! if corporations have aright to market their products and services, born again christians also have a right to sell their illogic to the entire world. that way we have a balance of terror between the fundamentals of the middle east and the christain fanatics of the west.

Answer 7

As for all of the stuff you just spouted...well, a logic class might help. Christians aren't perfect, they still sin, and no one that I'm aware of has claimed otherwise. Yes, true Christians have been forgiven. And yes, we still make mistakes. Maybe that's just not allowed in your high and mighty world, not sure, but until you've reached the state of sinlessness, give the rest of the world a break.

Edit...if you care nothing about religious beliefs, and care nothing about sins, why are you so hyper about what others do?

Answer 8

Who made you God? You have no right to judge or mistrust anyone's salvation. It's been my experience that "seasoned" saints are more likely to backslide then those who are in their baby steps phase, because the "seasoned" become arrogant and start to ease up on their self vigilance. Don't worry about the splinter in your neighbor's eye, Mr. Record Keeper (and who keeps a church record on people anyway, I mean, really!), and worry about the beam in your own eye, instead!

Answer 9

Idio,
We are all Judged by CHRIST. You, me, and every other person who is alive, will live, and has ever lived. We are expected to follow the New Testament scriptures and continue to be faithful until death according to Rev 2:10. This means that we do not purposely sin and ask HIS FORGIVENESS. Have a great week.
Thanks,

In modern society populations are too large to keep track of someone (anyone, not just a BAC) who has already broken a social taboo.

If it does not cause a criminal record they can just pack up and move to a new city and start all over again.
