You miss the point, it is all Jesus not me, nothing of my opinions matter only knowing Jesus.
I am tackling you and other Christians on your lack of "humility" - or perhaps on your bizarre use of the word "humility" - and, to that end, you have still not addressed what I put to you on page 1. Hiding your opinions behind a supernatural figure (Jesus) does not disguise the immodesty and lack of humility [not to mention the profound misanthropy] in your creed.

A "supernatural figure"???

You're the worst ex-Christian on this planet!!! Your relationship with Jesus must have been an awesome one.

You are stuck on viewing believers, by over looking the Salvation by over looking the Savior Jesus Christ!
I am trying to engage you on the sheer immodesty and conceitedness of the personal exceptionalism at the very heart of your ideology.

Yes, Jesus. A supernatural figure. Do you think he is not one?

Well we look at humility differently, I see it as having nothing to brag about, which all men should have before God. I see it as not being able to brag over another, or assuming status above another. You have something superior, where others may take a better road where we maybe something greater?

You are determined not to address what I put to you on page 1 it seems. I don't care that your ideology tells you that you exhibit "humility" and that you are now trotting out this rote-learned thing here. Instead, I am addressing the fact that your ideology - and the things you claim about yourself and others as a result of it - means that you do not exhibit "humility".

I answered you but you are looking for something you are not getting, so I must at fault? I tell you that you cannot earn God’s favor which was the opening of this Op was all about. You think being a Christian means I/we look down on others or we are superior to others? For me it means we have to admit our faults, and turn to Christ acknowledging without Him we can do nothing.

The one thing we do have the godless doesn’t is hope, for those that believe when one dies all hope and love are destroyed in death. For us there’s a hope before us of love everlasting, hope eternal. Won for us by One who loves us.

You can believe what you want. The "fault" lies in your use of the word "humility".

This is mere doctrinal recitation that does not tackle the issue of "humility".

Do you not "brag" about being "born again"? Do you not "brag" about being "chosen" by "God"? Do you not "brag" about having a "personal relationship" with "God" because of thoughts in your head and not because of what you are or do? Do you not "brag" about being "forgiven"? Do you not "brag" about being "saved"? Do you not "brag" about being set for "everlasting life"? Do you not "brag" about "God" answering your prayers? Do you not go on about people who are not Christians being agents of "Satan"? Do you not go on about people who are not Christians deserving "eternal torment" and being tortured in the "Lake of Fire"? Do you not go on about welcoming the "end times" when all Christians will supposedly be destroyed, unlike you? Do you not parade your misanthropy about your fellow humans - but not about your fellow Christians - incesantly? This is not "humility" in any recognizable English language shape of form.

Well, we all have "thoughts" in our heads, you assume I'm bragging when I say
Jesus saved me, being born again is of God. Not sure how I can brag about that I
didn't earn it, I'm not singled out due to how special I am. As a matter of fact the
only ones Jesus died for are sinners, which means accepting Jesus means I have
admitted I'm a sinner. You can accuse me all you want, claim I'm bragging, what
ever you want to see you will see, if it is there or not.

Now you are just making stuff up. Direct quotes would be better than this, try
using some of them make sure you put them in context please.
