As for the Pharisees, Christ was saying that they had no righteousness, He said they know the law and they do the law without love and with arrogance and that doing the law will not get them into heaven. That's right these Jews you are bragging on, if they did not come to know Christ before they died will spend eternity in hell. Christ said many times that He is the only way into salvation and that no one comes to the Father except through Him. Since salvation belongs to Christ I would think that He speaks with the only authority need on salvation, you seem to believe you can twist and change scripture around to make it say whatever you want, guess what you can, still doesn't change what Christ's authority on salvation and how we receive it.]/hide]

Sure, and you do, by quoting John 3:16 incorrectly, the correct quote is: "For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. "

The word begotten was thrown out of the Bible as a fabrication, not by Muslim scholars or Jewish scholars, but by 32 christian scholars, of the highest eminence, backed up by 50 co-operating denominations.

Stay small boy, and learn from your elders Smile

I didn't even read the rest. If you want me to lose my time to read the crap you type, make sure it's accurate or, at the slightest inaccuracy, you will lose my attention span.

So I'm not allowed to paraphrase, how inconsiderate of you, if you choose not to read my post that's okay, but if you are just going to point out perceived mistakes, then it's you who is nothing more than a child with a big self importance complex.

Sure I do. The veritable lack of evidence to support it currently and logically dismisses the existence of any such salvation.

It is unreasonable to prefer and value the comfortable lie over the harsh truth. That which can be accepted without evidence can easily be dismissed without evidence.

Only in your shallow mind, today's science assumes things without evidence and you've bought into that.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
