Aren't we all supposed to "seek out our own salvation with fear and trembling"? You can't just trust someone else is telling you the truth, you have to seek it out for yourself. You have to know in your heart and head what the Word says. It's not just about living by a rule book it's about having a right relationship with Jesus.
PS. Don't forget the fear and trembling part!

Thanks for reading my diatribe, every now and then one of those just pop out. lol.
It's hard to not get caught up in the "details" when everyone thinks their details are the ones that will save you.

BZZZZT! Sorry. No, you need a preacher in your life, to tell you what to believe. To save you! An Apostolic Oneness Ultraconservative Holiness Pentecostal preacher, of course. Didn't you see this thread?

I know him personally -- he's not bitter. He just doesn't understand what the fuss is all about (neither do I, frankly)-- but my word doesn't really count because evidently I'm bitter as well.
