who Jesus Christ is. I can tell you he is my Lord and savior. Have you met him before? Is he your savior? Would you like to meet him?

Is this a proselytizing trap?

I ask because you forced the viewers to view your thread just in order to finish your sentence.

I’ll just answer one of your question, now that I’ve been trapped.

“Is he your savior?”

No, that’s impossible. In order for me to allow that I would need to condone having Jesus nailed to a pole for my sake. I absolutely do not condone that and I have stated that many times. To accept Jesus as my savior would be the same thing as nailing him to a pole myself for my sake.

I’m not going to ask anyone to pay for my sins for me. If I can’t get into heaven on my own merit then I’ll just pass. I wouldn’t want to be some place I’m not truly worthy of being on my own merit anyway.

That’s my final answer,... (at least until the next proselytizer comes along ohwell )

Oh, dear, you need to read the story of Jesus and the cross. It is imperative that you believe it happened and to accept that it happened FOR YOU. Otherwise, the alternative is an eternity in hell. Please, just research the whole thing. He didn't do it to get you into heaven, He did it so you would have the chance to go to heaven. Simply by accepting the sacrifice of Himself for your sins.

It seems that you believe in everything you read , so please keep on reading and believing in anything and everything you read !. There are thousands and not only hundreds of religions in this universe . Unfortunately ,they are full of contradictions and show a primitive life full of selfishness, misery ,corruption ..etc. You are most welcome to live in those days . As for my life ,I choose this century with its sciences ,technology ,philosophies and logic at its best .

What makes you think I haven't researched it in depth? If you actually research it in depth you'll see how it's basically not all that differnt from all the other manmade myths from that geographic region that preceded it.

Here, maybe this will help,...

all this is truth i accept all these things as faith principles, yet i don't share the approach.
it is very fundamentalist try to show principles of faith in such way.
