If you're being honest here's a real approach to consider.
God is real, He can be real in your life if you believe and trust in His word.
An inductive study of God's word, considers the context. The bible is written for both people who lived before the cross and after the cross.
Being saved is the ice you need skate on.
The gospel teaches how to ice skate.
Jesus chose Paul to teach all the doctrines of the church. Rom 14 explains that worship is anytime a man gives to God.
Of course I'm being honest I don't even understand why that is a question here. I gave this question so I can continue my learning and possibly also edify some other sheep of Christ. Also this topic is one of the most hotly debated in the church and so I still haven't rested it in my mind.
Brother I already know that God is real all you have to do is look at the Sun and feel his spirit. I have been studying the scriptures 30 years and I attended a bible college for 3 years. So I do have some knowledge of the scriptures. Excuse me if I'm being prideful right now but I'm trying to explain a little more of my background.
I understand what you are saying about the cross and I understand the atonement somewhat. I guess brother where my disagreement with you comes is that I have a hard time believing that because Christ died we now have a licence to sin.
