i can do what i like cause i'm saved!

unfortunately..i've come across a lot of ppl who think like this..it's is a particular pet hate of mine.. i've known church deacons that were doin' everyone in sight and believed it was ok because they were already "saved".. doesn't the bible say that if you believe in Jesus and his teachings and chose not to follow them, you'll get your ass kicked even harder (not in those exact words ) smile ... surely we all have a responsibility for our own actions.. believer or not... to use christianity as an excuse for putting away your conscience is very sad imo.. i really respect the way ppl such as Sensual Melody post.. when i read her stuff i think there's a lady who lives her truth.. if you're going to start preaching religion AT ppl..u better have your shit together..otherwise you'll come across as a fool

How about: "I can do whatever I want because I'm not saved!" I guess it doesn't make you a hypocrite then, does it? Jesus Himself said that he'd rather us be hot or cold, not lukewarm (or else he'd vomit us out of his mouth!). I doubt God is very happy with hypocritical Christians, to say the least; however, this doesn't justify stereotyping all Christians as being the same.

I very humbly appreciate your compliment, Mr. Bliss.
Thank you.
I really do try to practice what I preach...although I miss
the mark in one way or another daily...
I am so thankful that the Bible says that Jesus serves as
a model for us to follow his steps closely and not
perfectly.
So...how's everybody doing? smile
