re: #90 engineer cat
well, i have never been a christian
but, tell me: does jesus here say that god will make you burn in hell forever if you do not accept jesus as savior, even if you have been a good person all of your life?
i think not
in fact, what he says soon after is this:
“23Jesus replied, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them. 24Anyone who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These words you hear are not my own; they belong to the Father who sent me.”
so, tell me - what ‘teachings’ is he referring to?
Christ wrapped up the 10 commandments into a single command.
Love one another.
