Thank you for responding back sir ismael abdul kareem byrd!
You wrote:, but basically since i was a little kid I never bought into the idea that God has children.
It is written:And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose. And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years. There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.
These sons of God are created sons of God, just as Christians are adopted sons of God. The Bible says:But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: John 1:12
You also wrote:Ohhh...yes according to modern Christian tradition (mostly certain strains of protestantism) I will not be "saved", "washed in the blood of the lamb" etc etc. But there are other modern strains where they believe that God is Love and Jesus is Love and since we are all God's children, God would never punish his children. So this website seems to only be dealing with one interpretation of Christianity...when I was a chrisitian, of course I didnt believe this non-sense.
The scripture above which I stated says:to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name.
God is love, and God is also righteous and just and Holy above other things.A absolute Holy being cannot be in the presence of sin. If you are not cleansed by the blood of Christ you remain with sin.
It is written:Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin;and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned.That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord. Romans 5:12,21
Furthermore you said:God repented for a mistake he made (Ex 32:14) or that the Prophets throughout the bible were sinful, or that there is such a thing as the trinity, or that God has children, or that God came to earth in the form of a man, or that God was born of a woman, or that divinity can reside in the earthly form, or that Paul was actually inspired by God, or that the book of Revelations is actually a book of the Bible. Most if not all of those statements defy logic. And if we can't believe in God with our
minds then you actually dont beleive in Him, he is a figment of your magination.
Exodus 32:14 God repented translates to{God relented from harm} He acted according to His mercy.
It is written:Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ) Ephesians 3:4
Furthermore understand this as it is written:Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.Philippians 2:5-11
May I suggest to you this scripture my friend, it is written:Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe
and know the truth 1 Timothy 4:1-3
Do not hearden your heart from the truth! What I speak from the word of God is not a figment of my imagination nor is it nonsense, the word of God will one day destroy the wisdom of the wise. You never were a Christian! because a Christian is a follower of Christ and not{Allah} whom you claim is your god. The more you hearden your heart from the absolute truth it will eventually lead to a permanent hardness of the heart where there is no turning back. As the Pharaoh of Exodus, everytime he refused to let God's people go, his heart became heardened til the point of his permanent hardness of his heart and which eventually led to the demise of the first born and climaxing at his physical and spiritual demise!
As it is written:For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame. Hebrews 6:4-6
God Bless!
