I wonder what the percentage is of those who call themselves Christian who decide that they personally are not "of the Way"?Whose percentages?
Who is deciding who is "of the Way", and who isn't?

This is just more of I place myself up here and look down upon those that I disagree with.I wonder what the percentage is of those who call themselves Christian who decide that they personally are not "of the Way"?
Well, if you think that Christianity is a religion of peace and love and acceptance , and who am I to disagree, then you have some work to do here convincing your fellow Christians here on this thread. I see precious few agreeing with you.This is just more of I place myself up here and look down upon those that I disagree with.
The problem that some of these Christians have is they have lost focus. They have a religion about Jesus instead of the religion of Jesus. Which is peace and love and acceptance. They do not and will not accept anyone who does not fit in their narrow window.
I agree with you. The 1st step is getting them to understand just how much they sin and not to pick out their "pet" sins. I don't have a very good success rate but I shall keep trying.Well, if you think that Christianity is a religion of peace and love and acceptance , and who am I to disagree, then you have some work to do here convincing your fellow Christians here on this thread.

Anyone can call themselves anything they want, the question is are they what they claim.I wonder what the percentage is of those who call themselves Christian who decide that they personally are not "of the Way"?
The religion of Jesus and the religion about Jesus? What does that mean?This is just more of I place myself up here and look down upon those that I disagree with.

If picking out other people's sin is your goal then we can always give you the Pharisee Award.I agree with you. The 1st step is getting them to understand just how much they sin and not to pick out their "pet" sins. I don't have a very good success rate but I shall keep trying.
People missed the point Jesus tried to make. They placed him upon a pedestal he did not want. You have given away your authority to a Roman emperor and his cronies.The religion of Jesus and the religion about Jesus? What does that mean?
God has made the way through Christ Jesus for all to come to repentance.
God desires that none should perish but all come to repentance.
What do you mean by 'their' narrow window? Because so far we have been quoting Jesus and you have been responding negatively
Your narrow window is LGBTQ. Most of your posts demonize this group. From your posts you ignore or at least put as below LGBTQ actions. The bible speaks of many sins yet you hammer and hammer on few. Your "Pet" sins.The religion of Jesus and the religion about Jesus? What does that mean?

Jesus called himself the name that jewa used for God. He knew why he was here and what his purpose was. He fulfilled that purposePeople missed the point Jesus tried to make. They placed him upon a pedestal he did not want. You have given away your authority to a Roman emperor and his cronies.
31 The Jews (AP)picked up stones again to stone Him. 32 Jesus replied to them, “I showed you many good works from the Father; for which of them are you stoning Me?” 33 The Jews answered Him, “We are not stoning You for a good work, but for (AQ)blasphemy; and because You, being a man, (AR)make Yourself out to be God.” 34 Jesus answered them, “Has it not been written in (AS)your (AT)Law: ‘(AU)I said, you are gods’? 35 If he called them gods, to whom the word of God came (and the Scripture cannot be nullified), 36 are you saying of Him whom the Father (AV)sanctified and (AW)sent into the world, ‘You are blaspheming,’ because I said, ‘(AX)I am the Son of God’? 37 (AY)If I do not do the works of My Father, do not believe Me; 38 but if I do them, even though you do not believe Me, believe (AZ)the works, so that you may [h]know and understand that (BA)the Father is in Me, and I in the Father.” 39 Therefore (BB)they were seeking again to arrest Him, and (BC)He eluded their grasp.
Not you.Whose percentages?
Who is deciding who is "of the Way", and who isn't?
Depends what you mean by pedastal.. Jesus said He is the truth, the way and the life and that no one gets to the Father except thrpugh Him.People missed the point Jesus tried to make. They placed him upon a pedestal he did not want. You have given away your authority to a Roman emperor and his cronies.

You, then?Not you.
Interesting how you claim those of us who disagree with you over what is and isn't sin (for you it's all things alphabet culture is not sin) are sinning all the while you judge us as you claim we are judging others. There's a name for that...of yeah...hypocrisy.I agree with you. The 1st step is getting them to understand just how much they sin and not to pick out their "pet" sins. I don't have a very good success rate but I shall keep trying.
I didn't take the poll. Begging the question, though, why would you, an avowed atheist and who I consider an obvious anti-Christ, care? I would have thought you would rejoice knowing that your enemies are at such a low percentage...interesting. I guess you will miss us when we are gone because you won't have a target for your hatred for God then. Right?You, then?

I asked who did, and why their definition should be the one we accept.I didn't take the poll.
I do not determine my enemies by their names, but what they say and do.Begging the question, though, why would you, an avowed atheist and who I consider an obvious anti-Christ, care? I would have thought you would rejoice knowing that your enemies are at such a low percentage
I keep correcting you, and you keep being wrong.I guess you will miss us when we are gone because you won't have a target for your hatred for God then.
Matthew 10: 34 “Do not think that I came to bring peace on the earth; I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. 35 For I came to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; 36 and a man’s enemies will be the members of his household.31 The Jews (AP)picked up stones again to stone Him. 32 Jesus replied to them, “I showed you many good works from the Father; for which of them are you stoning Me?” 33 The Jews answered Him, “We are not stoning You for a good work, but for (AQ)blasphemy; and because You, being a man, (AR)make Yourself out to be God.” 34 Jesus answered them, “Has it not been written in (AS)your (AT)Law: ‘(AU)I said, you are gods’? 35 If he called them gods, to whom the word of God came (and the Scripture cannot be nullified), 36 are you saying of Him whom the Father (AV)sanctified and (AW)sent into the world, ‘You are blaspheming,’ because I said, ‘(AX)I am the Son of God’? 37 (AY)If I do not do the works of My Father, do not believe Me; 38 but if I do them, even though you do not believe Me, believe (AZ)the works, so that you may [h]know and understand that (BA)the Father is in Me, and I in the Father.” 39 Therefore (BB)they were seeking again to arrest Him, and (BC)He eluded their grasp.
