CINOs: Christians in Name Only

[calamity]

And, He is not being worshipped for being Jesus (the human form).





Yes, it does. A Christian has to believe in a TRI-UNE God. Three in One.


Part of Christ teachings is accepting who Christ is.
The Saviour is Jesus. The Savior is God (in human form).

So many verses that indicate God being the Saviour. Here is one:



Isaiah 45:21-22

"Declare and set forth your case; Indeed, let them consult together Who has announced this from of old? Who has long since declared it?
Is it not I, the LORD? And there is no other God besides Me, A righteous God and a Savior; There is none except Me.
"Turn to Me and be saved, all the ends of the earth; For I am God, and there is no other.



If God said there is no other - then, why is Jesus bearing the title of a Saviour?

That we need to turn to Jesus to be saved?




The whole part of Christ teaching is that there is only One God. All honour and glory must be given solely to God.



Here's the problem with your interpretation:

All the titles bestowed on God are also bestowed on Jesus.

If you believe they are not One and the Same - then, you're saying, Jesus was usurping the titles given to God!

Therefore......that also means, you are not following the teachings of Christ. So, there!




Here are all the evidences that God and Jesus are One and the same.


GOD HIMSELF will be with them[W;105]



I know you won't read them - but the evidences are not meant for you alone.

Incorrect

Have you figured out that Neptune is blue? Last time we talked, you thought the image was photoshopped.

Owners of Hobby Lobby are CINOs for sure.

So Hobby Lobby waits til yesterday to close, continually exposing employees and others because “it’s in the hands of god.” Today, they fire people by email. No severance. No insurance. Apparently, God doesn’t want the Greens to use their billions to help their laborers. Grace

Here's a pair of CINOs if every you saw one.

What do you think Jesus would do once He sees what is being done In His Name by these ”christian pastors”?

"In the name of Jesus... I execute judgment on you, COVID-19!... It! Is! Finished! It! Is! Over!"

Absolutely ridiculous video at the link.

All religious people are religious in name only. There is no other way to determine what religion a person follows.

As are all atheists...:2razz:

Atheism isn't a religion. There is nothing to follow. I would hazard a guess that many people who claim to follow a religion are in fact closet atheists.

Nah, there are many people out there who practice what they preach. CINOs are those who do the opposite, i.e. preach forgiveness while throwing stones at every sinner they come across.

Everyone follows a philosophy in life, I don't care who you are, and yes, there are true people of faith....

I think human behavior has nothing to do with professed religion. Nice people are nice and nasty ones are nasty, regardless of religion or lack thereof. Religion is not much different from the clothing we choose.

No, most people don't follow any philosophy of life. Our behavior is built in to our personalities. Religion does not change that. Goodness or badness has absolutely nothing to do with religion.

You are so full of it...I know personally of people who've turned their lives around, from being terrible, vile people, to be the most loving people on this earth, all because of Jehovah's holy spirit...you will never convince me otherwise...

Nonsense. Religion like many things has indeed changed people. Some people change for love, honor, duty, out of fear (usually of dying if they do not change) and, yes, even religion.

A lifelong smoker quits smoking when he realizes his morning cough may be the first signs of lung cancer. A drunk who runs his car thorough the garage wall quits drinking when he realizes his drunken driving might someday kill his child. And, sometimes, religion plays a big part in bringing about those changes.

Doesn't happen. It's all an illusion.

Religion does nothing. People don't change.

Roll your eyes all you want. Our basic personality does not change. People choose and use religion to fit their personalities, just like everything else in life. The only thing that changes personality is physical illness and trauma.

People change all the time, with or without religion. It's a primary trait of being human: we learn and are quick to adapt.

Christians in Name Only: Has there ever been another time which has so effectively exposed them all?

In some ways, I am wondering if maybe there truly is not a god. He sure is doing a hell of a job making it easy to spot the frauds.

It's like god has been working overtime ever since Trump got elected.

I don't think they're frauds, I think they're acting as their preachers and the bible instructs, hence their overwhelming support for a blatant racist and misogynist like Trump. For example, the bible specifically condones slavery, and was thus used by Americans to justify slavery, preventing blacks from voting, and other racist activities.

Yeah, you can find any hate-filled thing you want in that book. But, the Jesus man preached something different. TalibornAgains aint no Christians....other than in name only.
