Thats the way it should be But the truth is diferent
The difference between "the way it should be" and "the truth" is due to human fallibility.
A righteous law or rule is not rendered wrongful just because it is violated.
The commandment proscribing murder remains righteous even though humans violate it by murdering.
The commandment proscribing stealing is righteous even though humans violate it by stealing.
Jesus was just a decent guy who wanted to do good things. Whether hes the son of God or not he had good morals and deserves to be rememberd and respected.
he was the son of god... he did great things...
He was the most important single man in the history of the world, without question. However, He personally didn't do great things; His followers certainly did.
"Many deceivers, who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh, have gone out into the world. Any such person is the deceiver and the antichrist." 2 John 1:7
"Who is the liar? It is the man who denies that Jesus is the Christ. Such a man is the antichrist - he denies the Father and the Son… I am writing these things to you about those who are trying to lead you astray." 1 John 2:22, 26
