actually i would recommend that you take up college courses on the New Testament.

I knew a lot of stuff beforehand, but it's good to try learn other things.

It's obviousy you're taking it out of context as there are a lot of verses that contradict that one verse you keep on putting.
It contradicts it because you're taking it out of context.

good luck with believing that everyone is going to Heaven because they believe in Jesus. Hey who are we to judge?

Serious as a heart attack, every Christian should get one because the context of scripture I see mangled in this forum.

Huh? I accept everyone without exception, whether they believe in God or not. Love knows NO BOUNDS, and anything put on top of this Love as a "condition" is not really love at all, is it? It is then just another heartless religion, with no fruit, and no teeth.


And I don't believe in what most Christians call the devil. No scapegoats here, as my mirror is dirty enough. If God chooses to put me through tribulations, he has enough messengers to do it. If I fall, there is no one to blame, but myself.

You actually looked up the word judge, and then said we were not to judge. Now you are saying I need classes? Maybe I need new glasses.

Look up the word rebuke, and then condemn, and then judgment. Then come tell me we are allowed to judge another man. Then tell me we are allowed to condemn an entire denomination of church goers. Show me using scripture, in the "right context".

Well, being a dedicated baptized Witness of Jehovah myself, I can confidently say...I am a Christian.

and not to sound antagonizing, but could you explain to the audience why you feel you are one, and why the others don't?
