Re: I want to apologize!
20928,
Since "God is LOVE" (genuine deep love), and you are putting scripture BEFORE Him (you love the bible), you simply don't have the capacity in your heart and MIND ("Be transformed by the renewal of your MIND", Romans 12:2) to know God "IN TRUTH" and in spirit, the bible is your god (The Lord will have no other gods before Him).
Matthew 28:18 is SELF EXPLANATORY (just like so many verses), but you insist on DRAWING CONCLUSIONS from scripture and you like to INTERPRET instead of UNDERSTAND scripture "as is" (INTERPRETATION is the habit and biggest mistake of Christianity). Mat. 28:18 is probably the most self explanatory verse in the whole bible, but it takes common sense to understand it. You see, it's the "self abasement" that is dehumanizing to churchgoers, it keeps the human being from thinking like a human being.
Ephesians 5:17
"Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is".
Obviously, you didn't even try to develop eyes to see and ears to hear, but the bottom line is that if you can't love our true heritage GENUINELY and EXCLUSIVELY (without placing anyone or anything before Him,...such as the bible or Paul, apostles, Bereans, etc.),....this is known as FIDELITY, then you would never be able to understand the depths of God (read 1 Corin. chapter 13, the LOVE chapter).
The bible didn't hang on the cross, neither did anyone else (INCLUDING the brethren IN CHRIST, they are only kinfolk in Christ and should receive no special treatment), ONLY Jesus hung there (where's your loyalty?? where's your heart?).
You, like everybody else on earth, have freewill (which means that you are not OBLIGATED to believe that Mat. 28:18 means what it does, you can continue being a puppet of the moneychangers (it's your choice and your soul).
