The Dive Bible

Or has he, and so now you feel entitled to bash sonship with the term? If so, how is calling sonship a 'religionist' any different than calling Dive a 'religionist'? Painting both with the same brush shows your misunderstanding of the term.

Apparently, though, you've come to the realization that a 'religionist' cares little for 'spirituality', so I ask again, do you stand by your labeling of Dive as a 'religionist' as well?

So is Dive a 'religionist' as well, as you claimed earlier?

Or has he not yet enlightened you as to his definition of 'religionist'?

i was sixteen or seventeen in the late sixties when i sat on the grass in the breezeway of my texas high school, asked the Lamb to wash away my sins, restore my soul, and the Holy Ghost came to reside in my heart...

i didn't read that in the bible...
it just happened...

lotsa crap has happened since then...

@whodey said
WHAT I MEAN IS, the notion of asking the "Lamb" to wash away your sins came from the Bible, right?

Or did you start your own lamb cult?

i was told of the procedure by folks in bible study...
i even gave it several (cannot remember exact numbers) attempts of "asking Jesus to forgive my sins", but nothing ever seemed like i was any cleaner than the day before...
but that one day, i remember it clearly, there wasn't any thunder or trumpets blaring or heavenly choir singing, but there was a definite change in ...[text shortened]... it may be there, i don't know...

(Everyone has their own Bible)

It's called interpretation.

(And all Bibles are different)

Not sure why I received 3 thumbs down for this statement, because it's absolutely true.

If it weren't, there would be no atheists, Jews, Catholics, Christians, JW's, etc., because ALL would read the one 'real' bible, and agree in solidarity with what it contains.

Though most will deny it, the vast majority of Christians have an aversion to truth - if not a hatred of truth. They love the darkness.

Surely Christians believe they 'have' the truth, rather than having an aversion to it?
