(August 6, 2015 at 1:01 pm)ChadWooters Wrote: No one claims that Christians are any better than anyone else, only that no one on their own is good enough. All have fallen short etc etc. Faith in the Lordship of Jesus Christ is recognition that there is a higher moral authority than Man.

Yet there are some that make that claim. And I don't think that Jesus is showing a higher moral authority than man. Not according to Luke 14:26.

Quote:If anyone comes to me and does not hate father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters--yes, even their own life--such a person cannot be my disciple.

And now you can do the mental acrobatics of telling me this is to be taken allegorical.
