Let's read what God's word says about idolaters - Rev.21:8 - But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and IDOLATERS, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. What is the solution? Repent, turn from your sin and follow Jesus.
Side Note* Doesn't seem like a day has past since our Lord's crucifixion. Only changes are technologies and characters. Let's see what God says about stubborness 1Sam15:23 And stubborness is as inquity and idolatry.
Abortion Clinic Avoids Kan. Indictment; But will this abortion clinic and its members avoid Christ's judgement? Rom. 14:10 answers this very question - for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ. We(believers) must pray for this clinic and its members.

Hawk49 - the word judge and judged in Matt. 7:1-2 (the words are not mentioned in verses 3-6) kjv. Meaning Krino kree-no (greek dictionary - James Strong expanded concordance) - properly to distinguish, i.e. decide (mentally or judicially); by implementing to try, condemn, punish. judge/judged does NOT have various meanings. Addressing your questions regarding Matt.7:6 - this principle governs how one handles the gospel in the face of those who hate the truth. Final thought - Pray :)
This is tragic. We must remember that What the enemy means for evil, God means for good. Our focus should be - How is God going to use this tragedy (in our eye's and hearts) too further His kingdom, to reveal his will and glory? God is sovereign - in control - Even Satan must ask God's permission before acting. Read Job 1:6-12; 2:1-6 What do you conclude about the relationship between God's sovereignty and Satan's freedom? God's sovereignty means Satan must obtain permission before he can act in the life of a believer. Satan's freedom does not mean he is free to do anything he wants. I pray the kingdom of God advances in some way through this tragedy.
http://www.pfo.org/jonhagee.htm Rev. 20:10 - And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever. Is John Hagee and false prophet? I encourage all to read the article and put the information before the Lord to answer that question.
Obama defends himself as a devout Christian I am a Christian. I am a devout Christian. Ive been a member of the same church for 20 years. I pray to Jesus every night and try to go to church as much as I can. (Obama Uses Jesus' Sermon to Bolster Gay Civil Unions - Christian Post.) Okay then my brothers and sisters. Rom. 14:10 But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall ALL (empahsis added) stand before the judgement seat of Christ. Obama says he's a devout Christian. He may be lying, he may be telling the truth. Let's leave the judging for our Lord Jesus :)

Scripture is very clear: 1Cor.6:9-10 - Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. What is the solution? Confess your sins, accept Jesus and seek God's will daily. Mark 8:34 - And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. This MUST be done daily. Now let's look at 1 Cor. 6:11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God. Thank you Jesus!! Our only hope is Jesus :)
On our own we are little more than bits of stone and glass. Together we are the Body of Christ. Holy Bible: Mosaic is an invitation to experience Christ in His Word and in the responses of his people. Each week, as you reflect on guided Scripture readings aligned with the church seasons, you will receive a wealth of insight from historical and contemporary writings.
