Really?
Forgive my ignorance (not being sarcastic here) but what is the basis for getting into Heaven?
Repentance. Believing that Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of God, who died, was buried, and was resurrected. In theory, if Mother Theresa didn’t believe that, but my lazy ass did, I’d go to heaven and she’d go to hell.
If this was the only brand of Christianity around, I’d probably be anti-Christian.
Thank God there’s moderate, progressive, and liberal Christianity, though.
Also known as unbiblical Christianity.
With these three options to choose from:
- Take the Bible at 100% face value and worship a vengeful, manipulative, bipolar, murderous God.
- Take the Bible at 100% face value and reject God altogether
- Recognize the Bible as a flawed product of man, separate the wheat from the chaff, and worship a fair, merciful, loving God
I’ll go with #3 every time.
