You don’t know jesus claimed to be god. You BELIEVE it. You take a book culminated of stories, that you decided to believe lock stock and barrel.

You believe your preachers anecdotes of how accurate the bible has remained throughout history, but you still do very little if no objective research yourself.

The irony of all this is you even said “None are righteous” but yet your statement wreaks of righteousness.

Do you really think pointing down at people from your pedestal is effective?

Sure I do His word says it. Scripture is God-Breathed.God chose the men He wanted to write what He wanted them to right.There are 1000’s of ancient documents that make up the scripture, more than any other ancient writing.I do my own study but you wouldnt know that because you don’t know me,so you lie. Which is breaking Gods law and proof you are a sinner.When I speak of “none being righteous” that most def includes myself. All have sinned. Its the truth and a warning. Repent and trust in Christ

Repenting is sorrow over sin(Godly sorrow leads you to repentance the scripture says) and a change of mind and direcetion. You Know its sin and you turn away from, don’t do it again. Similar to what you said. But I am not catholic. Christ said unless you repent you will perish. Scripture also says God commands all people everywhere to repent. It is necassary for salvation and something God works in yopur heart, not something you do. Salvation is all of God and none of man.

I agree so were on the same page apart from the fact that true repentance will show in your future ACTIONS which IS something that you do ! no point being sorry for something “in your heart ” IF you dont attempt to repair the wrong you have done if possible thru ACTIONS

Sure it will. But the repentance and faith in Christ alone is for salvation. And is generated by God. Godly sorrow and the goodness of God leads you to repentance. He gets all the credit. If God saves you you will live a life of repentance. But salvation is the issue here and Christ alone is the way. Not Christ plus Tolle or any other belief or religion. Salvation is by grace through faith and not of works so no one can boast. All of God, All for His Glory.

How do you reconcile the translation differences between the KJV and the now oldest records of the scriptures that have been unearthed in the last 20 years?

What do they mean to you?

Nothing has changed. The bible is and always will be the word of God. Many have tried to get rid of it and twist it and say its fables….all to their shame and judgment. Gods word will be at the judgment…will it excuse or accuse you??

@joseph82069
okay, this is about RELATIONSHIPS. it has nothing to do with your religion. the ego is a psychology term, or do you consider that a “sin”??? Oooooo!!!

It’s a relationship with God yes. Which is thru Christ alone. Yes ego could def be a sin, it’s called pride. And your assuming that I have the ego. Except it’s not about me and it’s not my word or my way, it’s all about Jesus and His salvation and His way.

@joseph82069
soooo anyway, what does jesus and god have to do with eckhart? i don’t understand.
