Some do. A lot of us get along really well too, even on TOL.
So that breaks off that argument. Hell, even the atheists claim that they are gonna have no problems after death. That doesn't make them right. That doesn't make atheism the best position of belief regarding God.
:think: Interesting. So you had classes on how to lie? Have you ever lied? Stolen? No sin at all? You are perfect?
We are all born innocent, just like Adam was created innocent. But those of us who allow the influence of evil from among demons and among men - then we have fallen into sin. All of us has, but for our own selves...
Ezekil 18:20
The one who sins is the one who will die. The child will not share the guilt of the parent, nor will the parent share the guilt of the child. The righteousness of the righteous will be credited to them, and the wickedness of the wicked will be charged against them
Adam sinned, so Adam had to pay. We do not bear the sin of our parents. We sin, so we must pay. We shouldn't expect someone else to pay for us. St.Paul was ignorant of this teaching.
This doesn't make sense with what you just said above. You lost me.
It does
On this particular, Christians differ a bit.
On most other things too, and they don't differ a "bit". They differ loads. This is unacceptable - God is not the author of confusion
Becoming a Christian is a supernatural event where God places Himself inside a person. Christ's death, burial, and resurrection is the process He chose.
The Messiah, Christ, was never prophesied to be the son of God - let alone God. The Son of Man speaks for God, and rules in the name of God. The teachings of St.Paul to the gentiles simply makes little to no ethos sense.
I knew I sinned and needed forgiveness as a very young child. I had done things I was not supposed to do. Jesus Christ is accessible to all. There are few people who have never heard the name of Christ. Virtually all on the planet have access to Bibles and radios with Christian messages.
Few? There are and were millions. If they also share original sin, that means your lord is very, very unfair! Think about this. This cannot be truth
Not even Muslims promise universal or no one would be beheaded or exiled. Why would you accuse Christians of this?
Islam is universal. The Qu'ran is the only popular book on earth that claims to be the word of God, and is mostly in the first person with God. The Qur'an is the only scripture that provides a theory of Prophethood that transcends all nations and tribes. The Tanach was for the children of Israel, God has many many other scriptures other than this. Consider this: an aborigine in Australia who has no contact with revelation is considered a Muslim if he believes in a Supreme God-King-Lord-Creator-Master.
God has a special place for these:
Matthew 19:14 But Jesus said, "Let the children alone, and do not hinder them from coming to Me; for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these."

True that
He did what He had to do, to redeem us. We are stubborn and strong-headed. God did what He had to do, to reach us in our lostness. A message of incredible love and sacrifice, can and does get our attention. God would do whatever it took, to get our attention and He did through Jesus Christ.
St.Paul's teaching is a message of condemnation and damnation. It teaches us that we are all born in sin because of our father Adam. It teaches us that the wages of sin is death, and thus we all have to die for that. It teaches us that God killed himself for that blood sacrifice. It gives the symbol of the cross - an instrument of torture. It is a message of damnation, blood.
The God of Abraham teaches us that we are all born free and in the straight path. That satan is our enemy and we must escape his traps and never befriends him. That we must give up the qualities that we share with the demons. And we would be successful in both this life and the next. True Islam is a message of mercy, peace, and true love.
