One of the reasons that we cannot consider that you are correct is due to the fact that we have actually met the living Christ. He has shown us that He is victorious over death, and we trust in Him, and Him alone to save us from our sins. We know that we are sinners because we have seen the radiance of His perfection and have been made aware that we are filthy in our sins by comparison.
It is my prayer that you will meet Him in the same way, that He will reveal Himself to you in such a way that you are driven to your knees and proclaim "My Lord and my God".
