=============================
God REQUIRES "perfection"?? Lol. That's a good one.
NO ONE is perfect EXCEPT God. We are to TRY to be so.
Who taught you that God REQUIRES 100% perfection? I never heard such nonsense in my life.
Let me try to explain this nonsense to you one more time. You just made my whole point. None of us are perfect. I am an ex Catholic. I know I was taught to lead a good enough life to go to Heaven. I know I was taught that I was in a works based religion. If you are going to trust in your good works, or trust in your sincerity, you better be totally perfect, and never make a mistake.
I know I am not perfect. I don't trust my eternal soul to my good works to get me to Heaven, like works based religions do. I trust the fact that I am born from above.
I don't care anything about baptism, communion, church membership. I only care about their plan of salvation. How do they plan to get into Heaven?
You don't need to feel sorry for those of us who got out of the RCC. I am doing fine. I hope to see you in Heaven. I intend to be there.
To enter heaven, yes, God DOES require perfection.
Laugh in mockery and derision, if you will.
But you mock Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit who inspired Scripture.
Matthew 5:48 You therefore must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
You SURE you really want to go there?
Who taught you that God REQUIRES 100% perfection?
Um..... Jesus?
I never heard such nonsense in my life.
Well, if you read Scripture, you would have but I can't say as I am surprised.
