JJ Johnspon Speaks to Senate about militia

I am going to assume that you missed the part where christianyouth said that the child was four years old. Having raised a couple of children myself I naturally understood that it is highly unlikely that a four year old is already saved. Then I deduced that this mother was simply trying to teach her daughter what the Bible says about our spiritual condition apart from Christ, to help her understand her need for Christ, in order to lead the child to Christ.

My statements about your mother's behavior were not without merit if, according to the Scriptures, she tried to teach you that you were a "good boy" prior to your salvation. She may have wanted you to grow up to be a good boy. There is nothing wrong with such a desire. However, prior to salvation according to the Scriptures, all of us were anything but "good."

No the OP is about militias and the right to bear arms. It is not about christianyouth's reference to the woman in the UK.

Yes, I agree that this line of discussion is off topic from the OP. However, I am unwilling to allow misinformation to go unchallenged just because it is off topic. If you'd like to continue this line of discussion please feel free to start a new thread (perhaps in the Baptist Bible Study and Theology Section). However, lets not keep driving this thread further off topic. Agreed?

 

If the OP is about militias then you've been off topic.

 

Yes, I agreed to that (except I say we've been off topic) and asked if you would agree with me that we would not keep pushing this line of discussion that popped up because of an off-hand comment by christianyouth. Can we agree here and let the thread return to the subject of the OP (if you want to continue this discussion please feel free to start another thread in an appropriate forum)?

 

Boiled down, this is THE difference between a liberal and a conservative: A liberal does not believe what Christ said about the human condition, and a conservative does. And where a conservative will go to the Scriptures to support his arguments, a liberal goes to his subjective personal experiences.

BB, you are NOT a good boy. Let God be true and every man (or mother) a liar.

You have to define what you mean by "liberal." Are you talking about a social liberal who is a Bible believing Christian? If so, your argument has no merit.

 

Primarily I think he is talking about Theological liberals who allow their personal experience and feelings to have authority over the Word of God. However, generally speaking Theological liberals also tend to be social liberals and Theological conservatives tend to be social conservatives. Imagine that... Now back to subject of the OP please.

 

This thread is wildly off topic, so it is being closed. LE
