U Said: Good morning, Delphi. Are you a god, yet? Do you believe you will become a god?
Do you believe your tithes will earn you a position? Does your good works get you extra credits?


Your attempts to be offensive are noted, and chuckled at.

I, like you, are a child of God. If you or I are faithful enough, we will become Co-Heirs with Christ. Rom. 8: 17
16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:
17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.
18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
19 For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.
20 For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope,
21 Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.
I am a child of God and he has sent me here.... It's a primary song in my church, you seem to know less of our doctrines than they do.

Works = extra credits? I can't even figure out how that applies to our doctrine.

Tithes don't earn me anything, it's a commandment see: Mal. 3:8 - 10.

U Said: Let me quote Paul, a converted Jewish scholar...

Great stuff, but it still doesn't negate James 2: 14 - 26, they are both scripture, you need faith and Works, we say Both, many say we are saying just works and that's just wrong, there are also people who want to pick and choose which parts of the Bible apply to them, and that's not right either, either the Bible is scripture, or it's not.

Again, have a great day and pray more, you can't go wrong by praying more to God.

If you or I are faithful enough...

Enough?

I am 'enough', but I sure hope you work hard ENOUGH to be even CONSIDERED to be faithful enough.

1. Do you believe there is more than one God?
2. Do you believe you can achieve godhood?
