      Yes, the son of god was horrifically tortured and executed so Trump could fuck stormy Daniel’s while his wife was pregnant.

      That’s Paulian/Roman nonsense. Jesus preached duty and righteousness and you will taste Hell as one should if you don’t do as Jesus did, within your personal limitations ofc. You’re supposed to believe and behave like Jesus (he doesn’t even use himself as an example because he understands only God is truly good, he says we have to be “perfect like the Father”, a monotheist maxim), not “in Jesus” like he’s Zeus or something.

        all of us are sinners that is fact we cannot be as perfect as Jesus We are supposed to TRY our best to be like Jesus we CANNOT be completely like Jesus, and believing so is prideful.

          Jesus wasn’t perfect, he was a righteous man though, a very clever and selfless one (and not everyone is blessed with his intelligence or enough clarity to be selfless). We must follow his lead the same way he followed/was inspired by previous prophets.

          Ofc if you believe in Jesus, “the anthropomorphic deity part of a tripartite pantheon” instead of Jesus the wandering rabbi, things start getting messy. Sorry if I’m triggering, I don’t mean to be but I know anyone who believes in anything in earnest might be.
