Again we are working of the person in questions own assessment. In that this person said they were not worshiping the God of the Bible, but they still classified themselves as Christian. Which Jesus spoke to very directly. No interpretation needed. As Christ Himself addresses this very issue in that chapter.
Not every thing in the bible has to be interpreted. Some thing you simply read off of the page and apply. To know which one must look to the Greek, but it does not change the fact that this passage in mat 7 goes unchallenged in the rest of scripture and the Greek completely agrees with the English translation.
I know your trying to muddy the waters with the olde standby atheist argument that my interpretation of the bible bla bla bla... But it does not apply here. Try something else.]
There are some 35 million books in the Library of Congress. Do you ever read any of those?
If you can't argue without appeals to misdirection and trickery then maybe you should be arguing your point.
