As long as you concern yourself with what is BIBLICAL instead of what is CHRISTIAN you will not know God or Jesus! I hesitate to think WHAT or WHO you are worshiping but it is NOT Jesus and His Father.

Well I just learned something! I thought we learned how to be a Christian from scripture.

Technology sure has advanced, we don't need the scripture anymore, we can now learn that from the minds of men, namely MysticPhD.

Not me, Charlie, Jesus Christ. You know, the one you ignore in favor of the Bible's untested verses! You would see the Truth if you tested every verse against God's Holy Spirit of agape love, but you refuse. You accept it all blindly and then expect to lead the blind. Sad, very sad!

You should know by now that I don't follow false doctrines and their inventors.

The Lord doesn't like that!

But you ARE following false doctrine, Charlie. You are NOT following God's Holy Spirit of agape love as revealed and unambiguously demonstrated by Jesus. The Holy Spirit is to be our Guide, NOT the words "written in ink" by ignorant primitive men who believed in a wrathful, vengeful God who needed to be appeased by blood sacrifice.

The God of Jesus IS agape love, period. You and so many others completely missed that rather important detail about God. That is how the Good News Gospel of agape love and reconciliation was turned into the Bad News Gospel of hell and damnation. Sad, very sad.

Yes, it's very sad when a person chooses to believe something that causes him to turn from the instruction Book into the fables of man!

What you call the instruction Book IS the book of the Fables and genealogies of Man, Charlie. Jesus Christ brought the TRUTH about God's Holy Spirit of agape love to us in His consciousness and demonstrated it unambiguously. That is how we are to know God, Charlie - from the "mind of Christ," NOT from the Book of Fables and genealogies. That is why His death and rebirth as the Holy Spirit (Comforter) was so important. WE have Him as the guide to the Truth God has "written in our hearts." Too bad He is ignored in favor of what is "written in ink."

You claim to be led by the Holy Spirit, Charlie, but you are oblivious to what that means. To be guided by God's Holy Spirit of agape love you must be in the states of mind associated with the Holy Spirit. You can NOT be led by the Holy Spirit if you are in states of mind that are OPPOSITE of God's Holy Spirit of agape love, which you seem to be in more often than not, Charlie.

Mysticism. What a bunch of man made nonsense.

“The man who keeps the commandments he has from me is the man who loves me and the man who loves me will be loved by my Father, I too shall love him and reveal myself to him.” (Jesus and the son of man)

“My son receive my words and the years of your life will be many. Don’t forget my teaching, keep my commands in mind for many days and years of life and peace they will bring you.”(Proverbs)

And, the only thing you are doing is preaching a false doctrine, nothing sound about it.
Jesus is the One who spoke of the doctrines of hell (Matthew 13:41-42, Matthew 13:49-50, Matthew 25:46, Mark 9:42-48, Romans 11:9-10).

It is most certainly sound doctrine.

The opposite is "what itching ears want to hear" (2 Timothy 4:3)

We know about Jesus from the Bible.

Jesus said that the holy scriptures are "they which testify of me." (John 5:39-40).

It is written of Jesus in the entire volume of the Book (Hebrews 10:7).

The authors of the Bible, as I have said before, have all been tested and found to be true apostles (Revelation 2:2).

Is the story of Jesus dying on the Cross, a fable, in your opinion?

If not, why not?

Because you seem to think that other stories in the Bible are fables.

What distinguishes that story from the others?
