On this thread?

However, I stand by that.

Religion is meaningless. It accomplishes nothing. All religions are on equal footing in that not one of them reconciles man to God. They are all man’s puny, futile efforts to reach God and make the man acceptable to,God, and that is impossible.

There is nothing we have the power to do in ourselves to pay the debt we owe for the sin we have committed. The only option is to throw ourselves on the mercy of the court and have the sin debt canceled because of the finished work of Christ on the cross, and having HIS righteousness imputed to us, credited to out account.

And that only happens by grace through faith in Christ. All God wants is for us to trust in and believe Him.
