38% of Christians Surveyed Got This One Wrong

I did a survey on Bible Love Notes' Facebook page and the results were interesting. Even though mostly Christians follow the page, 38% of those surveyed proved their lack of Bible knowledge. The devotion continues below the poll...

 

Please note: I asked for the answer that is ALWAYS right, not sometimes right. In certain situations, numbers #1 and #2 are correct, but #3 and #4 are never true. 

 

The passages below refute the first, second, and fourth statements and confirm the fifth statement. Only God can perfectly judge hearts and condemn people to Hell, but God commands us to judge: 

False teachers and ungodly influences:
Matthew 7:15-20; Ephesians 5:8-11

Sinning believers (to help restore them):

Matthew 18:15; Galatians 6:1; James 5:19-20; 1 Corinthians 5:12

Our close companions:
1 Corinthians 15:33; Ephesians 5:5-7

We're also called to Judge sin (Ephesians 5:11), False Teachings
(Acts 17:11), and Bad Influences (Psalm 101:3;  1 John 2:15-17).  

And churches are commanded to have formal judgement against members living in unrepentant sin: 1 Corinthians 5; Matthew 18:15-17.

#3 represents the popular Jesus portrayed in many books and movies, but not the Jesus of Scripture. True love confronts sin and seeks to restore people to God. For Scriptures proving Christ judged people, read Did Jesus Come to Judge? or watch it on You Tube: Did Jesus Come to Judge? 

As this Facebook survey shows, we must be prepared to address these false views of judgment so we can carry out the purposes of God.

This survey is one example of the confusion many Christians have about biblical judgment, a subject I address thoroughly in Lies in Disguise.
