Cherubs aside, do you really believe this crap? Have you even researched the origins of the bibles historical accuracy? It's a load of hogwash, my dear.
No Luckie, I don't believe what you said because it isn't what the Bible said. Is says John 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. 18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son. 19 This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. 20 Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed. 21 But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what they have done has been done in the sight of God.
God loves you and He loves people and He was willing to put aside is rights to bring you into life and for you to experience the joy of His fellowship. It is a beautiful thing He as done for you. This gift is given freely even though it cost a great deal. I am going to pray that God will grant you repentance so that you can escape from the lies that are holding you captive. I trust my God will do what is good.
