Is it better to believe that I was created in sin as the Bible claims (a wretch and in need of redemption) because of the sin of Adam or that I was created perfect as were the rest of creation and free to worship and be thankful to a perfect Being? I find it more peaceful my way because I condemn no one and I don’t feel superior to anyone.
Don’t take the Mark.
Well, it’d be better for eternal purposes. Do you really think any human being on this earth is perfect? Really? We are selfish creatures but sometimes it takes revelation from Christ to see that...Blessings.
It is not I that condemns you. It is the word of God that points out condemnation.
He that believeth on him (Jesus) is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnnation, that light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. (John 3:18,19)
I am not superior, just saved. It is God's desire that no man perish, that all come to the knowledge of the truth. If I were "superior", I would keep this privileged position only for myself and leave the unsaved to perish. But that would be contrary to what God wants.
Jesus said, "...He that heareth my word and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation, but is passed from death unto life." (John 5:24).
Believe and live.
