He asked for people's definition of Christian. I gave one. He realizes everyone has different definitions for christian. He wants to know yours.


Do we all know why this "Christian definition" thingy is so difficult, so individualized? 

Because there is no biblical definition  !!!!!!!!!!!!!   That being so, why are we not allowed to give definition as we see fit  ?    Some on the far right (nothing wrong with that, of course) speak as if there is some divine definition we MUST agree upon.  

Also, and this may come as a shock, but simply because the Bishop of California feels comfortable with Brother Hanson,  does not mean that Brother Hanson is saved.  Ditto for my acceptance of Billy T,  Izzy, JudyT and on and on.   I assume we are on the right track,  that the heart is good.   I can make that assumption because, in a soteriological sense, it doesn't mean squat  (my opinion  --   as correct as it may be, I might add).
