“If you believe in Christ, then you should not be dabbling in the blasphemous rants of someone who clearly is not basing their teachings upon Scripture. “
Is belief in scripture a requirement for belief in “Christ”?
Yes. Many people claim to "know Christ" but they know nothing of Him because they do not read or believe in Scripture (more specifically, the Bible).
For example, a common lie that is perpetrated about Christ was that he was a non-violent person who would never hurt a fly (we heard Bill Maher recently claim this). This is clearly refuted by the actions Jesus took when He cleansed the Temple... which we'd know nothing about were it not for Scripture.
Another common lie was that Jesus was a "socialist" who advocated for government to redistribute wealth to the poor. Nowhere in Scripture does Jesus claim this. Jesus does teach that Christians are obligated to help the poor out of our own pockets and efforts. On top of that, the Parable of the Talents teaches very clearly what Jesus thought about work, money and investing.
