Same attitude, same approach to the attitude. See how that works? Oh. Let me throw a smiley in.

That's why I don't respond to your posts.

Curious. Why? What informed you that there is a God/Jesus?

I do believe that He wants to be in relationship/communion/communication with us.

How do we do that?

I know what Apostolics believe. and I have a pretty good idea of where my place is with them.

I think non-Apostolics by and large would not consider you a Christian for rejecting the inspired word of God too

Wow. I've been Apostolic for more than 20 years and I have never been consumed in my every waking thought of going to hell. I don't know anyone else that is either. Why do you think that happened that way?

I've wondered that myself, BeD. I have a theory. It sounds to me like she was being buffeted by a spirit of condemnation or something.

I noticed you mentioned she still has faith. If that is the case then perhaps what happened really shook her faith

It seems like it. I find myself at a loss to really be able to help her because I know posting scriptures won't do any good. All I can do is find whatever I can to encourage her to press forward.
