So you are god now? This was what I was talking about in reference to little gods. This is truly heretical and contrary to every Christian belief.

Why must you continue to fight against your god's free will? If your god wanted everyone to believe the same thing, he would have done so. No one belief is better than another belief. Now if you could prove your religion was fact and not just belief, then I'd say, you have something worth considering.

This is also what you refused to answer earlier . . . what are children? Are they little adults or something else? What are heirs? Help me understand your so-called "every Christian belief."

Of course children are not little adults, and we have no ability to become gods. That is ridiculous. You are rejecting the supreme authority of God and are relying on your own humanist arrogance to justify your religious structure. If one does not accept the Bible as the final authority and leans to his own human understanding as the basis of truth, the truth is not in him. These are not my words, but God's. You may call yourself spiritual, religious, or anything you like, but you cannot legitamely call yourself a Christian.

"legitamely" belonging to Christianity?

Yes, it is humanist to think such things and if one does, they cannot legitimately call themselves Christian--Christian in terms of how the Bible defines, not by what man attempts to define it as.

"You too can be as I am" - Jesus Christ


Won't find that one in the Bible. It was taken out. The authorities had to ensure Christ became a figure to worship, not to emulate. If his real message got out, they'd have no religion and no power. The power would reside within the people.


Alright. I'm out... again. You're a broken record. You believe Christ can be reduced to the false idol of a book. I have experience that he cannot.
