What confrontation? I’m not the one who is apparently upset here. Why is that by the way?

As for knowledge i have studied the bible forward and backward for most of my 70 years.

We have studied the bible verse by verse, even word for word (often getting into the original language the words came from and their meanings) year after year, decade after decade. Have you done that? :thinking:

I will admit i haven’t read much of the uninspired writings (very uninspired in many cases.) that have popped up here and there.

As for the authority to decide who goes to heaven no i don’t have it nor do i want it.

Jesus himself made certain statements about those who will go to heaven or not.

That’s the only thing i am saying.

Ever read this verse? One of a great many from Jesus.

Matthew 7:13 chapter

Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:

Again have a nice day.
