So you want to ignore God in this life and then expect Him to welcome you with open arms?

Oh it's gonna be quite a mess. If the south sea islands are included there are currently about 4000 variations of gods being worshipped. If one takes all denominations, conventions, sects, cults, sub cults etc. there are more than 40,000 interpretations of the new testament being used.

This is why after reading the bible cover to cover and the new testament no less than ten times over about 45 years of my life I knew that I would never believe it. If a just and loving god dropped by and left the only keys to his kingdom in the hands of ignorant, primitive mankind who believed the earth was flat and the universe revolved around it and allowed his word to be misused, rewritten, falsley interpreted etc. screw him and the donkey he rode in on.

It is we who pick and choose. NOT GOD. Jesus tells us that if we seek Him with all our heart we will find Him. Way back in the day when my peers spent their time drinking and druging themselves. I searched for God. And to my surprise, I found Him. You call God egotistical as if you were speaking about some local goof. Yet I believe you are not smart enought or wise enought to know. That the God who created all things is worthy of worship and honor. And His love is extended to all who love Him. Mockers of God need not apply. Heaven will be a place where those who really love God will be fully present. And mockers of God will stew in their contempt for God in a place called Hell.

Yes we are all his children....... And Jesus is not G-d, nor is Christianity the truth............. But it is a religion if arrogance.

If Christianity is not the truth, why did Jesus Christ fulfill all the prophecies of the Old Testament that speak of His first coming?

How exactly can innocent children dying of disease and hunger PICK him? Why should they HAVE to. It is called unconditional love, something YOUR god obviously knows NOTHING about.
