   You have no scriptural basis for that.   
      
   There has been no obfuscation by me, just a refusal on your part to accept   
   the scriptures and to follow the Lord in His words.

   I have a long standing history here, of my being a disciple of Jesus for   
   probably more years than you have lived since your mother spewed you out.   
   They are the evidence of my Faith Believing. If I do not measure up to your   
   standards, that is fine with me, as I have already answered your questions   
   long ago. Plus answered them directly to you as well.   
      
   You, are no better than the Dung guy who propagates his two whatever’s of   
   food a day who likewise accuses all who do not believe in his ways, and   
   demands that one say, “Jesus is Lord”. Which anyone can say, but not   
   follow in their heart, nor their actions.   
      
   There is a scripture that exemplifies that found in “Thou believest that   
   there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.”   
   (Jas 2:19, KJV)   
      
   “But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?” (Jas   
   2:20, KJV)   
      
   So just where are your works of Faith?   
      
   Belief, trust, and loyalty to a person or thing. Christians find their   
   security and hope in God as revealed in Jesus Christ, and say "amen" to that   
   unique relationship to God in the Holy Spirit through love and obedience as   
   expressed in lives of discipleship and service.   
      
   Not via a dogma, doctrine, or any semblance of a religious nature.   
      
   “God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and   
   in truth.” (Jhn 4:24, KJV)   
      
   To help clarify that to you there is this from,...   
      
   Jhn 4:24 (AMPC) God is a Spirit (a spiritual Being) and those who worship Him
