I see, so the line that anyone who does not agree and conform to this "submission" deserves to burn, that evidence is not required to prove this true and we must take it on faith... you don't see that as arrogance of astounding proportions.

Announcing you have the creator of the universe in your corner and that you don't need to justify this statement, thats humility is it?
All of my good works are thanks to your deity are they? Got any evidence of thi- oh right, you don't need that do you?

Brilliant. Well, I'm totally convinced.

And didn't put anything in there to try and convince you of shit.
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.
