from your interactions with these fellow, chukwudi44, enigma and unbenedictus, what do you think of them? Are they christians? Do you think they are on course to make heaving? And all so what about truthislight, maximus and olagbedu. Also joeagbaje, goshen. Talk to me about each of them separately.

From ones insight into the faith, you can guess if he is truely christian or not. Also you can read several messages from pp benedict XVI tell your take on him if he is christian or not. Some of his messages are message to youths preparing them for WYD 2011 titled 'rooted and built up in christ firm in faith', his message at westminster hall adressing british MPs, his homily marking the end year of priests at st peter's basilica. Like i said earlier you can tell if one is truely christian from their insight into the faith.

Is it now frosbel that would determine who shall be called christians or not. Just trying to trying to figure out the motive for this thread

Only God knows those who are his, not me or you .

However we have a litmus test for us as individuals to use and evaluate our own lives.


1. Are we born again of the Spirit of GOD ?

We can only ever gain admittance into God's everlasting kingdom by the new birth.

"In reply Jesus declared, "I tell you the truth, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again."" - John 3:3


2. Is there any change in our hearts and character ?

For example if we were once alcohol or drug addicts are we still the same or have we stopped these destructive habbits ? If we were used to lying ( whether white or black lies ) , do we speak the truth more often and repent when we mistakenly tell a lie, if we had anger problems of volcanic proportions do we now get less easily provoked etc etc .


"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!" - 2 Corinthians 5:17


3. Do we still sin thinking we will make it to heaven somehow by some special works or membership of a church ?

"Nevertheless, God's solid foundation stands firm, sealed with this inscription: "The Lord knows those who are his," and, "Everyone who confesses the name of the Lord must turn away from wickedness." - 2 Timothy 2:19


Only God knows those who are his !!

I have not read the precise one you are talking about but I know he is one of the greatest theologians in the past century

My standard bearer is Christ Jesus the 'last Adam' and head of the church, not some usurper called the head of an apostate church.

it is by writings of christians like benedict that you got to know of a man whose standard you claim to cherish so dearly

actually no !!


I got to know Christ through the revelation of the Holy Spirit by the Love and Grace of GOD.

I have read some of Pope Benedict XVI's writings including some the ones you talked about. Are you surprised that the Vicar of Christ, the Shepherd of God's people on earth should have such theological insight and wisdom?

What do I think of Ubenedictus and Chukwudi44? - Faithful sheep of the flock, defenders of the faith. We all speak with one voice - that of truth.

see if frosbel agrees

gst101: see if frosbel agrees

Frosbel only agrees with himself. He knows more than any other Christian. He even knows more than St. Peter, I'm sure.

Actually no, and God forbid it be so.

I have many brethren here with like minds.

I simply want to follow CHRIST and him alone , the bible is my only reference book for the corroboration of TRUTH.

"For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified." - 1 Corinthians 2:2
