And you don't like that I defend my faith. I am not a dove.

Forgive me...

If you were driving off a cliff, would you want me to just wave?

Forgive me...

We may not have agreed before on things, but that was well said.

May God bless you greatly today in all good you do for Him.

Here it is in a nutshell. Your faith is different than what is expressed here, and you know that. That is why you are frustrated, it comes across as bashing. Go read the SOP.

Forgive me...
Ive read it. You are the one who contradicted yourself over that creed thing. Now you are trying to make an issue out of it when there is none. You're looking for something to report me for, because i dont agree with you. Does your denomination agree with others? No, so why should i?

The division we see in theology. Thats the religion i reject. I have a theory, that if we discard all the things that we disagree over, and embrace agreeable things, then we have good and pure religion.
Pure delusion.

Did i mention you? No.

You are speaking of my religion. Don't pretend that you are not.

You are here for the purpose of arguing against the faith of Nicean Christianity. You even admit it.

Forgive me...

Its how i built my faith on the Rock of Christ. Its not a delusion, although its not going to happen, because denominations do not allow their members to change.
No. What you're proposing is for everyone to follow you into your errors.

No im not arguing anything related to the creed, you are. How many other denominations disagree with yours? Will you report everyone?

Do you not propose that others follow your Church? If so then your being hypocritical. Its not an error either. Read Acts 15. Do you see liberty and simplicity? I do.

It's not supposed to divide Christians though, obviously.
Yes, heterodoxy does divide people from the Christianity. It is what happens when people follow their own made up traditions of men over Holy Tradition.

I follow the apostles. You cant get any better instruction than the true apostles who wrote the scriptures, and were sent to teach us.

Im standing up for truth right now.

But what is the cost?
Does it truly matter in the long run?
For me, the list of things I mentioned to you are a matter of faith and salvation.
There is a dire consequence for me if I do not hold and do certain truths within God's Word.
It is a matter of loving God and loving others properly and being in God's will.

So far by what you said, it appears to contradict the Scriptures.
For the Bible teaches that there is a "religion" that is a part of our faith.
The Bible also teaches that we are to study to show ourselves approved unto God and that we are to hold to certain truths or doctrines.
