My remarks are neither unfounded nor innacurate.
For instance, like you do many times in many ways, you make a broad statement such as this one above:
I am happy that you mitigated your statement with the realization that you can choose your morality despite the morality of those around you. You will note that the purveyors of this sinful lifestyle don't try to make it a law for you to participate in their lifestyle...
When in fact, anyone who reads the news knows that this is a false statement. Consider the laws regarding homosexual lifestyles that are being promoted in California. These LAWS, as just one example, force others who disagree with the homosexual lifestyle to participate in it by forced legislated teaching to children, and by forced legislated silence of dissent.
The only thing that makes your 'faith'. as you pronounce it. stand. Linear, is your obliviouness to the facts, or truth as it may be.
Here you state
Because Christ stated that the law doesn't save you. He loved and showed compassion to people who weren't moral and then taught them to live morally.
..but you fail to mention that he showed to compassion to people who were stuck in sin, ailing in it, and likewise repentent of it. He did not run after people who loved their sin, those he left in it and warned them of their imminent destruction. Show me one example of where Jesus saved a person who loved their sinful state, just one. There aren't any. He would also tell those he healed.. 'go and sin no more...' ... and he also said things like... the cow that returns to the mire (after being saved from it) becomes ten times worse off than before... I cannot find that exact quote at the moment but here is a similar one
Matthew 9:16 -
No man putteth a piece of new cloth unto an old garment, for that which is put in to fill it up taketh from the garment, and the rent is made worse
If sin has no meaning whatsoever, if sin as defined by the law has no meaning whatsoever, then it would seem appropriate for you to tear those pages from your bible, since they are all meaningless. Since, in thought, you have done this already, it is not an abject statement to say, your faith is not the one that Jesus taught.
There is something very important about the faith and salvation that Jesus did teach that seems to be missing from your dialogue, Linear. As far as I can tell it is the repentent part, as often is with most people who desire salvation but refuse to fully believe that God can save us from our sin, from ourselves, and turn us into a new creation that looks back upon our lives of sin with utter disgust, not longing. Most people that get saved, today and even in the bible, have already reached a state of repentence on their own, perhaps with God's help, they have realized that they are separated from God by their sin. The realization that God is holy, and that holy is not a meaningless word either, is essential.
The fact that you seem ok with this or 'they' seem ok with that, does not in anyway mean that God is ok with it or approves of it in any way, shape or form. You would be much better off seeking Him and his help with these issues than constantly trying to prop up your pride in yourself and your conflicting, and they truly are conflicting, beliefs on a daily basis. If you truly believe then seeking his help with these issues should not be an utterly overwhelming task. Of course if you only look to yourself as the answer for all things and never bother to inquire of the Lord then it should not surprise you that others say, your faith is not true.
