Her fruit, compared to the scripture, just as God said we should judge Mick.

Jesus also said, "I came not":

to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

to judge the world, but to save the world. [that happens later, as he told us through John later in the scripture]

Besides all that Mick, what do you care?!? You don't believe any of it. You only knock Christian. You disavow the scripture. You disavow the Apostle Paul. Why do you care you old cantanerous gentile?

It reminds me of my relatives. Nobody talked about religion. I didn't even know my Papa's side of the family was Catholic till a few years ago. My Mother's side are Anglican. Nobody said a word when I was into TM(& other meditative paths) and more seriously immersed in Bahai, and even when I was exploring Krishna, all I got was a messing of chuckling. But the interesting thing is, no matter the audience, if you come walking in declaring you now understand Jesus Christ is the living, resurrected, creator of the universe, that you believe Almighty God can keep the promises he inspired men to write down .... Well, suffice it to say you get reactions.

I'd say because you remain a seeker Mick, your problem is the God's spirit is still convicting your conscience. Which to me says there remains hope that one day you will say aloud, It Is Well With My Soul because you will have accepted Jesus on his terms rather than the vanity of your fleshly mind.

And Mick, on that day, as God's word say about every soul that comes to repentence, "A multitude of sins will be covered". That my friend is alway a joyous occasion. Especially so! when it's an old Jesus denying reprobate like you.

To one day being brothers in spirit and truth ...!
