Because God doesn't make rituals... If you think God makes rituals, then you do not know God. There is nothing ritualistic about God or His methods or means.

Scripture shows that you are wrong.

After further reflection, my personal opinion is that we've been on this see-saw long enough. What do you think? I don't think I'm going to convince you in a blue moon, and I'm sure you realize the same. Those who have listened in on our discussion I'm sure are familiar enough with our points. I recently sent you a post, and I'll let you have the final say. Shall we give it a rest?
