Okay, so what's His absolute truth? And then tell me what your interpretation of those truths are. And then tell me every little minute detail about why you believe that interpretation. And then tell me why anybody who believes otherwise is 100% wrong...

Because I can talk to a Mormon and they can do the exact same thing with Bible passages that you can. They can say that God is in their hearts and is moving in them. Anybody can! That's the problem with God... Man is the messenger, interpreter, and decision maker.

Yeah yeah yeah... God works through the Holy Spirit. That makes you right. Gotcha.

You say that you are a Baptist. I looked at your About Me section and you don't say much at all. Your words and thoughts aren't that of a Baptist unless you are a very backslidden and bitter Christian. What is it with you?

I guess I just have a huge problem with people who have blind faith in generation after generation of MAN. There are thousands of different beliefs on God and what His truth is yet every single person KNOWS exactly what's right and their only argument is that God is in their heart and has led them to believe that.

Person A is a Catholic. Person B is a Mormon. Person C is Baptist. Person D and Person E are both arguing over whether a backslidden Christian is going to hell. Person D says the same stupid crap over and over again about how that Christian may have never been saved in the first place. Person F is a Muslim. Person A, B, C, D, and E all know for a fact that Person F will be sitting in Hell.

"Welp, that guy should have believed in the right God... emirate?"

"No no, Chris... the God of the Bible is a God of love. Allah is a god of hate... you got it all wrong. Of course, Muslims are going to hell!"

To which I respond, "That's your opinion. God sure does allow a lot of bad things to happen to good people to be called a 'God of love.' So apparently, 'love' isn't exactly what we think it is. Maybe Allah is the right god after all. Who knows at this point? We're dealing with MAN and his message delivery here... not God."

Are you mad at what people do or what God does, or both?

Here is a verse to keep in mind, Romans

8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that​

love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
