If you believe your morals are holding you back, than of what concern are lies to you whether new or old?

If your word is no good, you are no good.

Once your intention is truly good, then your word will be good to God and forgivesness and charity will rule.

Baptism is an outward sign of this intention to follow His rules.

But mortals will be will mortals and not everyone chooses this. Without the option to choose, the choice would be meaningless.

Our fruit will be judged as well as our intention and how we interact with others especially those who are poor, tired, addicted, and lack knowledge.

Yes, we can judge a society by how it treats its most vulnerable.

I'm wondering when you will catch on that this religiousosity you revere is a false construct used by tptb to mind control you, though.
I can show you the roots of the ideas you are holding, but only you can stop being a true belieber.
I can't do that for you, only suggest it as a better alternative.
If something is not determined to be true by you, it is not true for you.

We can't know what we don't know, but we can recognize that few things are certain.
Certainly, anything that requires faith, rather than empirical evidence, is not to be trusted 100%, imo.

Onto every man is given a measure of faith.

I use mine to believe in Jesus Christ and not my own reasoning/ability to rationalize...and my limited understanding.

Who taught you that line of reasoning?

Roman's 12:3

I heard it first watching Joyce Meyer.
