I tend to agree with you. I don't think there needs to be any complete understanding about all the different Christian Theological doctrines which, for the most part of are tearing the church apart. It was the reason I changed tact with Omya. I felt we were getting caught up in trying to define the Trinue Godhead, so I decided to stop the discussion, and just assume the Truth.. That God is Father, Son and Holy Spirit. From my perspective, only one main thread of thought is necessary. The rest can come with understanding and Holy Spirit enlightenment, or at eternity.. I know I'll still keep learning right through it.
I am a sinner. I am unable to save myself, and my sinfulness separates me forever from God, and has to be punished, and in my sinful state, I am heading for hell.
God who created me, loved me so much , He sent His Son Jesus to die for me. Jesus died on the cross for my sins, and in some wonderful way, in that action, He did what was required to enable me to be forgiven for my sins, if I am truly repentant and desiring to make Him Lord of my life, and to submit to His Lordship.
Jesus's resurrection destroyed the hold that sin and death had on me, and in Jesus alone, I can now come to God and be assured that my sins are taken care of, and through Him I am now in relationship with God that will last forever. God has sent me the Holy Spirit to live with in me, to remind me without end, of my relationship to God, and He shows and help me live a life that is in submission to God.
This is a good thread, and I'm interested in hearing what you both think.
