(The Truth is the truth and there is no other Truth.)
>Except when one man's truth is another man's heresy!<
God gave man free will. You make your choices and you earn the consequences.
Romans 1:21-23
For although they knew God they neither glorified Him as God nor gave thanks to Him, and their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools, and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles.
God gave man free will. You make your choices and you earn the consequences. Romans 1:21-23
Gods and religion are man-made. An afterlife, whether rewarded or damned, is attractive to mortals, but evidence is lacking. Every tradition makes the same claim--"ours is the way". Jews, Catholics, Hindus, Suunis, Shi'as, Protestants, Pagans, Faith-healers, Spiritualists,....and there is no reliable evidence for any of them.
2000 year old texts are a poor guide to much of anything.
***God gave man free will.***
Chapter and verse please.
