   your a liar, you always have been.  And its fact   
   that you are compuslive liar.  And you are not forgiven.  Mark my words.   
   Go ahead, don't confess your sins to God's priest, and we will see   
   if you go to Heaven or not.  Because there is no way, Jesus ever claimed   
   your Bible, was My Bible.  As a matter of fact,  God said the opposite   
   of that.  Because your kind, did not keep it the same.
