Thanks for the kind words.
Just because Luther said something, really doesn’t make it so does it? He was just a man, like everyone else.
Why do you then follow his system of interpreting scripture according to your own ideas?
In order to discover the true religion, one must start with one absolute truth, then build on that with more absolute truths, till one has a foundation on which one can go forward and build on the building of truth, the true religion. If there is not one absolute truth in a religion, an absolute truth, that if denied by someone, makes them a heretic, and separates them from the religion, casts them out into the exterior darkness: where there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, then it is not the true religion, it is just some sayings to make one feel good about themselves.
Lets take the so-called system called Protestantism. What absolute truth does that system have that if not believed, makes one lose their eternal life?
Jesus Christ is God, 100% equal to the Father? The answer according to Protestants is NO, for there are many Protestants that don't believe Christ is God, and are not consider heretics (not Christians) by other Protestants. Therefore, that "Christ is God, 100% equal to the Father", is not an absolute truth which must be believed in your system.,/p.
Therefore, it follows that if Jesus Christ is not God, why should you listen to him, he is just a man like everyone else? Why should you listen to the New Testament, its written by men, and its about a man like everyone else? Why should you accept the decision of men to leave out 100+ letters out of the New Testament?
But of course, why should you listen to me, "just a man, like everyone else?
