Anybody that has been truly saved and really and truly know who Jesus Christ is will NOT ever, for any reason, give that up.
I know 2 people who used to be Baptist.....so they say they were...and have converted to Jehovah Witnesses. I also believe they would not have converted if they had been truly saved and had their faith grounded in Jesus and the Bible. It just won't happen with a true Christian.

WTF mate? I was raised Pentacostal Holiness and Catholic, and now am a Lutheran. Does that mean that I haven't been saved? Does that mean in your book I am not a true Christian, because I am not Baptist? Please, give me a break and get a real life! You are one of the ones that scare the rest of us.
Mom the Dragon: You were likely never a "true" Christian to these people. (and Catholic? they consider the RCC to be the Whore of Babylon. :P)
Seriously though, can people get anymore stupid? Catholicism was the only form of Christianity (barring Eastern/Greek/Russian Orthodoxy) around before the Reformation. "Born Again" Christianity is a recent phenomena.
Psssst... Some "True Christians" don't think that the concept of "saved" has any Biblical basis what-so-ever. Some "True Christians" think that Baptists aren't Christians(cause they never quote Christ), they are Paulines who worship and always quote Paul.PS Real "True Christians" think that how the other guy believes in God is that guy's business and worry about their own relationship with God.
Blah, blah, fucking blah!
The "never were a real christian" argument just shows how self-righteous and arrogant you pricks can be. You are not going to tell me what I used to believe or anyone else. I used to truly believe in santa claus too. ANd you saying I didn't is never going to change that. Like a lot of christians you spend too much time thinking about other people and how you can judge them and not enough time thinking about what you are talking about.
The problem is, TeachMe is a True Christian; arrogant, closed-minded, & self-righteous. If he/she could get past that, maybe someone would be able to teach him/her something.
Well, according to the Pope, you're not a True Christian(TM), either, so what's the difference?
Anybody that has been truly saved and really and truly know who Jesus Christ is will NOT ever, for any reason, give that up.
This might be correct for all we know. Trouble is, we can't test this statement's validity because NO ONE has been "truly" saved and NO ONE "really and truly" knows Jesus Christ, though a lot of deluded fools imagine they do.
Those last two statements baffle me. Don't JWs believe in Jesus, too?
What, exactly, does TeachMe think Jehovah's Witnesses are?
Y'know, there's a group out there that claim that their Big Daddy is the spiritual descendant of St Peter himself; so, according to them, since you don't listen to him, you're not truly a Scotsman. Something like that anyway.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
