Is that correct Randy Carson? (the former protestant lol)
1. I should have more accurately said the Father sent Jesus. They are both God, along with the Holy Spirit. It's what we refer to as the Trinity.

"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
