"Our own works (and rituals etc etc) are nothing but filthy rags to God."

I shall never believe that. And again, with all due respect, it is kind of you to be concerned, but truly, you know nothing of me, nor of my journey. But I do thank you for what I feel are good intentions.

G-d ♡ bless you!

you know nothing of me, nor of my journey.

You have posted several long posts describing much of what you deny that I know.

Did you read your posts, I did?

Me: "Our own works (and rituals etc etc) are nothing but filthy rags to God."

You: I shall never believe that.

It's in the Bible, but maybe Tradition trumps the Bible in this area.

King James Bible, Isaiah 64:6
But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.

Again my quote: "Our own works (and rituals etc etc) are nothing but filthy rags to God."

Mat 23:27, 28

Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness.

Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.

Very similar to what is happening today.
