Christ likened us 'Christians' to a field of wheat, and everyone else as 'weeds' the field owner's enemy planted. God offers boundless love to His children. How is this any different than what we do? If a neighbors kids harassed and beat your children would you love those kids as your own? Why would God?

I think it's more like having 10 kids. You tell your kids that they must worship you and do everything you say their entire lives.

The ones that do, you love. The ones that don't, you toss gasoline all over them and burn them alive.

Yeah.

Yeah, that sounds more accurate.

Lol, so your analogies trumps those of Christ Himself, in your own mind? So much so that you felt you had the foundation to 'correct' the analogy I quoted from Christ?
ROFLOL

Ahh, no.

Unfortunately for your argument, Christ has the final word on Christianity.

That is not to say that your post is not a what you think Christianity is... It's just not a biblical representation of it. I guess on the plus side when arguing with a Christian if you are allowed to pull straw men out at random, and rewrite Christianity however you see fit, it would make your arguments seem more valid.

Nor has he told me and my sister to kill those who do him or us wrong. He's already a more compassionate and forgiving person than Yahweh. This isn't hard.

What makes you think God was ever your "parent?"

That proves heaven isn't this perfect blissful place that you Christians portray it to be.

If it was all that wonderful Satan wouldn't have ever had any animosity towards god.

So?
