You are pretty much of a twister of other people’s statements. You are the one who made the remark about the Pope and made lame and useless arguments.

If one repents and believes in the Lord Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of his sins, he receives the gift of the Holy Spirit, Who indwells him forever and who empowers him, along with the Word of God, to live a Christ-like life, and who gives him a love for God’s truth and a desire to obey God. This is what the Bible teaches.

The Christian life begins, not ends, with Christ. There is a life to be lived, and a person’s life (thoughts, words, deeds) gives evidence of his/her salvation. We are to grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ (2 Peter 3:18).

In order to grow we must believe his Truth, His Bible, not selectively reject parts of it, for whatever reason.

As a Christian I will not be judged at the GWT because the Lord Jesus clothed me in His righteousness when I trusted Him as my Savior. At the judgment seat of Christ my deeds will be judged and all that were worthless will be burned up and there will be a loss of reward. This is true for every believer in Christ.

But at the GWT judgment unbelievers will be judged and cast into the lake of fire.

I’m sorry that creationism is too much for you to take. As I pointed out, God claims to be man’s Creator and the Creator of everything that has existence. His Son, also mentioned creation, as did the apostle Peter and many others. Truth divides. I hope that it is something that you must reconcile in your spiritual life in order to not grieve His Spirit and to grow in your faith, rather than being something that is indicative of your spiritual condition of not being saved. Same goes for every person—pope, prince or peon.
