The point of the thread is two fold. One show the contrast between God's absolutes and mans morality (ALL Morality even religious morality) Allowing me to explain why morality is not a standard to be used to judge right and wrong/Is not what God is looking for in us or from us. And why you 'good people' should not rely on it to define your 'righteousness.'
And Two, to point to an existence lived through atonement. which is what God wanted for all of us. To set us apart from rules and law to define our righteousness. to explain a life lived in righteousness is the real freedom you all pretend to have living good 'moral' lives without God.
God only uses His law to judge those who have not accepted the atonement offered by Christ. In biblical Christianity it is explain several times that we (Christians) are not defined or judged by our morality, but by our obedience to accept the atonement offered. Those who do not accept Christ's gift are however judged by their 'morality' and like the Pharisees will be found wanting.
Christ took THE most holy and religious group apart by their seams using their own hypocrisy and morality as His guidelines. Just like how I show you the 'relabeling' of nazi like persecution in modern society Christ took the 'morals' of the pharisees and showed them their own double standard and judged them by their own rules... So too will the 'moral' be judged.
So in other words...you can be a shitty fucking person your whole life, be completely self serving and treat people like garbage, but as long as you accept Christ as your savior you get a free pass. :: eye roll:: Do you understand how morally bankrupt and utterly ridiculous that is?
You're right, you shit stains - whoops - I mean Christians really ARE morally superior to atheists aren't you?
Again back to my prison metaphore...
If I were the warden of a prison wouldn't the inmates assume i was a shitty person, and if i served my whole life as that warden the inmates could say i was shitty my whole life... By that standard their is no doubt I was judged a shitty person my whole life...
Do you not see an issue with that judgement though?
If no then know your right.
