Liberal Christianity interprets the bible in a broad minded way, without a set of unified theological beliefs, rather Gods word is privately and individually interpreted. A liberal Christian may hold to certain orthodox and traditional beliefs but in methodology they are very postmodern and desire to reconstruct the church to fit into the modern era.

Liberal Christianity has been identified as a modern form of Gnosticism which is an ancient heretical belief system that protrayed God in a pantheistic and idealistic way in which spiritual truths were separate from the sinful world of the flesh. In other words sin was downplayed.
 
There are many streams of liberal Christianity and because this belief system had invaded the Church even conservative Christians may hold to some of these Liberal Christianity views that have no scriptural basis. Such as,the brotherhood of mankind, global unity,world peace,social means to reach the lost, love all people at the expense of speaking the truth, more consern with the practical needs rather than the spiritual and most of all lack of faith in the transforming power of the Holy Spirit and the word of the living God.

Another type of liberal position is that miracles and other divine interventions in scripture are figurative. Liberal Christians may also hold to the idea that cultural forces are shaping the world and Christians need to conform to this movement in order to convert others to their form of the gospel.

The Lord is in the process of seperating the wheat from the tares.Which camp will you be in ?...The left where the goats are...or the right...where the sheep are.

The sheep will not compromise Gods word at any cost! They will be persecuted by these goats and boy do they like to butt....and that is there favorite word when presented with the scriptures that disprove their worldly arguments. But what about.....

A true Christian will see his errors and repent......not Butts and no But...

Psalm 119:103-105

How sweet are thy words unto my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth!
Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way.
Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.
Important to remember Brethren when you are diserning truth from error,the false prophet always exalts himself,blows his own horn, wants the praises of men, call themselves wise men and use exalting titles like Apostle, prophet,Reverand, Father, master,ect. They get very angry when confronted with the true gospel,use accusation tactics,blame,and fight for their postion. The false prophet takes out of Gods word only what pleases him or her and usually will reject the rest of the word espeshially if it proves them wrong.

Matthew 7:13-20

Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

Jude 1:16-25

These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh great swelling words, having men’s persons in admiration because of advantage.
But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;
How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.
These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.
But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,
Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.
And of some have compassion, making a difference:
And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.
Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy,
To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen

Romans 1:25

Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature (created things earthy worldly.)more than the Creator who is blessed for ever. Amen

Psalm 21:1,2

Give unto the LORD, O ye mighty, give unto the LORD glory and strength.
Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.

    It is people like you who make me HATE organized Christianity!!! You really have no idea what the teachings of Jesus were, you choose to ignore what he pushed hardest to teach his followers... Forgiveness, LOVE, acceptance, kindness, humility and understanding where the true teachings of Christ!
     
    What you are telling people has NONE of these qualities.You are teaching the direct opposites: fear (punishment, being unworthy), hate - you say it yourself!
     
    The Gnostic Christians are the earliest known sect of Christianity.... Were the ones who knew and followed the Savior himself less likely to know his ways than you are? Are you really that full of yourself??
     
    There is so much of what you said that I think is henous and unGod-like, all that I can really say is that if I had to believe in a mean, sactimonious God like yours then I would rather leave this Earth now!!
     
    Let me close by saying this.... If the end times were to come to this world, I think a whole lot of people who thought they were going to be taken to Heaven are gonna be mighty disappointed!! You can thump your bible all you want and you can say your hate is justified in the eyes of God but in the end you would still be here... You do not practice the teachings of Jesus, you represent everything that he stood against... I pity you your mistake....
     
    My God is LOVING, He is not vengeful or greedy, he doesn't wish to control me with fear.... That is the God I love...
     
    I normally don't do this but what you said here really struck a chord in me... Those of us who believe the old teachings (Gnosticism) believe just as strongly as you do... We choose to not cram it down others throughts, we show or faith through example...We are loving and we are giving and we care for others more than ourselves...

    Whether you believe in the old or the new, they all originate from the same place with regards to Christianity and that’s the bible. The bible is a book of fiction. I suggest anyone professing Christianity should educate themselves on the history of it and how it came into existence.

    I agree that the Bible is mainly fiction... Its really sad to see someone so far gone and so HATEFUL of other people all over a book that was written by man, a work of fiction!

    The bible teaches who Jesus was and what he accomplished at the cross. Your Jesus is another Jesus and another gospel. Of course you hate the true gospel, for the bible says that the carnal mind,or in other words the mind not reedemed by the Spirit of God, is in enmity with Jesus Christ (that means has a deep seated hatred) and is not subject to the word of God nor indeed ever can be. That is why God must save you from your sins!
     
    "But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve
    through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from
    the simplicity that is in Christ. For if he that cometh
    preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye
    receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or
    another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well
    bear with him...For such are false apostles, deceitful
    workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of
    Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into
    an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his
    ministers also be transformed as the ministers of
    righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works
    ."
    2 Corinthians 11:3-4, 13-15
     
    "I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called
    you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: Which is
    not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would
    pervert the gospel of Christ. But though we, or an angel
    from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that
    which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. As we
    said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other
    gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be
    accursed
    ."
    Galatians 1:6-9
     
    "And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who
    came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in
    Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage
    :"
    Galatians 2:4
     
    "Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of
    Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of
    Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. If there come
    any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not
    into your house, neither bid him God speed: For he that
    biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds
    ."
    2 John 1:9-11

    If you are going to quote the bible as your "Proof" of what you claim, Answer these questions.
     
    1. Who wrote the Gospels?
    2. Who wrote the bible?
    3. Where is your proof that jesus was a real person
    4. How do you explain the story of say "The great flood" being written 2000 years before it appears in the bible on stone tablets by the Samerians?
     
    I await your reply, If you are going to quote the bible then at least be prepared to justify your position.

    LMAO okay could you not come up with something original Watchman????? Really, the same answer on two seperate posts?? I see plenty of scripture but not alot of intelligent conversation, I'd say that speaks for itself.....  Are you not capable of discussing your position in depth without the use of scripture?
     
    The majority of organized religion in the US is based on the bible, yet they are all different in their beliefs. If you sit down and have an honest, open discussion with a person from any of these religions you will find that each of them can make a very intelligent and understandable case for their belief system. The Bible is all about how it is interpreted! Do you really believe that God will "turn away" everyone unlike you? Most of them can claim their faith on the exact same book as you!
     
    Please, try to reply in a normal conversational/debating  manner...

    Gods word is what brings faith, not my words. Also, if you care to read my blogs, I have posted much on the bible.
  • StupidGenius said on Mar 03, 2009....
    All you post is scripture, answer or concede you know nothing of what you speak of.

    Well said SG! =D
  • Watchmanwhatofthenight said on Mar 07, 2009....
    Actually, no, I do not, but then obviously you have not read all my blogs! However, the bible is Gods inspired word, which is higher and more accurate than your opinion.
     
    Unless the Lord grants you repentance to the acknowleging of the truth, you will die in your sins, and so please feel free to read my blogs. May the lord have mercy on you!
  • StupidGenius said on Mar 15, 2009....

    "Inspired" is the key word you used then. That means it was written by man. Man is capable of mistakes so therefore you must concede that the bible is both not the proven inspired word of god you claim it to be and is also susceptible to the mistakes made by its authors.

    You will die from a case of delusional stupidity my friend.
