Why do you deny Christ's very own words? Can you refute what he said, repeated and emphasized?
St. Paul reiterates the meaning and yet you deny Christ's words and St. Paul's statements?
I’m not being flippant with the Gospel. The Gospel message is that Jesus paid the penalty for the sins of the world, and by repentance and placing trust in Christ a person is born again into the family of God. I’m not denying anybody’s words....I’m just following the proper understanding of the passages, which use figurative language.
