I have not claimed to be God, Cathy, but the Bible clearly tells us how to distinguish between true believers and believers in name only. It fact, it commands us to be discerning about false believers. This is not a matter of "judging" others, but simply a response to being discerning so as not to be deceived. I think you probably make many judgments about people without being God. Of course, only God knows the heart, but anyone claiming to be a Christian and departing from or deviating from the truth of Jesus Christ is a liar, according to the Scriptures. My judgment on Romney was purely theological. I think I made it plain that this standard is not required for voting for him or Obama.
