The Jesus between your ears and the one in scripture are not the same Jesus. The one
in scripture says things like what is written below.
I don't have a God, because He created the whole universe and has me as well as the
rest of creation. So the god you have and the Jesus you have, are made up, not the one
revealed within scripture. Your god and your Jesus only do what you want the way you
want them to act. They are based upon your likes and dislikes, and if they are not found
in some scripture you ignore that scripture to make sure you get to keep your god and
your different Jesus.
Matthew 18:8
And if your hand or your foot causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life crippled or lame than with two hands or two feet to be thrown into the eternal fire.
Matthew 25:46
And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”
John 3:16
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.
John 3:36
Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him.
