Believing Vs Claiming to Believe

[The Reality Salesman01]

I’d like to start with a thought experiment. Hearing your answers to the conditions contained therein will provide me with an accurate understanding of the regard in which you hold your belief. I hope you’ll run with it with me. What do you say?

Sure! Don't fret....I'm on board with most everything for questions.

Ok, I'm back.

It is my understanding that if one hopes to go to heaven, at minimum, they are to discharge the will of God.

You have made it quite clear that you are absolutely certain that you hear the will of God spoken to you. Without a doubt I believe you said. Please correct any errors on my part if it appears as though I've misconstrued your posts. I haven't gone back to make sure, I'm going off of my best memory of your responses.

It has been told to me that God speaks to those who read The Bible. Sadly, I must admit that I share the same disappointment that Mother Teresa expresses in her diaries (released after her death by the Catholic Church) when I say that I have not heard God, or at least, if God was speaking, it was not recognizable to me. Nonetheless, I continue to read it. I find it interesting.

In Genesis, God tells Abraham to kill his son. Of course, before the knife is plunged into his son's chest, God intervenes. Our thought experiment is this:

Say God tells you to kill all left handed people. Just run with it. There's no doubt in your mind that its God telling you to do it. You feel it in your heart, you know it in your mind. It infuses every fiber of your being. On a scale of 1-10, it's a ten, just like your belief in Christ. In this scenario, God tells you to kill all left handed people. Would you do it? Would you kill all left handed people?

I'd understand if you didn't want to answer, but I think its a fair question, and it will really give me some insight to your views.
