Smile Standing up for our Faith

Is it possible that God expects us to model our faith, state our faith, but, not put others beliefs on trial?

Search a bible course for whether or not we are supposed to judge others, and you will find your answer.

Absolutely not!
We are to try to model Christianity as Jesus did. That means that we WILL point out the false teachings of others as Paul did in Acts 14 & 15 and as Jesus told him to in Acts 18 (and many other places) and we are to expose the evils in false religions (2 John v 9-11) and teach the real truth.
We are to test every belief that comes down the pike and warn others about the false ones so that they don't get misled by them. If you've read the Bible you'll see it stated numerous times.
The Obamination has a pastor and a gay bishop at his upcoming event. He's trying to please everyone and he'll not succeed. This is why others beliefs need to be "put on trial".

Neither is less mental than the other..

The only measure would be based on which century/ decade.

Mind of Christ?

So what does it mean to have the mind of christ?

Think as Jesus does. Hard to do.

So what does the Bible tell us about what Jesus said and did?

Jesus did not condemn people, but He did not hesitate to tell a sinner they were sinning and to stop and repent. He told the scribes and pharisees that they were not doing the will of His Father; called them vipers. He threw the money changers and vendors out of the Temple. He forgave those that nailed Him on the cross. He died for even those that hate Him and still loves them when they revile Him.

He forgives those that love Him and live accordingly.

That will do for starters.
