    "god is not into punctuation"

    You are wrong there, if you believe in a Good News message.
    Surely you believe in a clear and well understood message.


    The use of punctuation as I pointed out to you in an example is essential to provide a clear and understandable message. If this were not so, punctuation would be superfluous and it would not be used.
    Without punctuation, sorry to have to say it, your posts are sometimes garbled and open to misunderstanding, and generally difficult to read.


    "the important thing
    is to know god as i do
    through his saving grace and love
    that is when gods word comes to be
    more than words
    he will transform peoples minds
    so that they can understand his ways
    and do what he wants them to do"

    I have no idea how you know God other than that you think that you are saved by his grace and his love alone.
    I don't know what the outcome of the transformation of your mind is, or what it is that you are doing other than repeating your belief about being saved by grace and love alone.


    Are we saved by grace alone according to the bible?

    Matthew explains it better than I can:
    Matthew 25:35-46
    New International Version (NIV)
    35 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’
    37 “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink?38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’
    40 “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’
    41 “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. 42 For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, 43 I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.’
    44 “They also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?’
    45 “He will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.’
    46 “Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.”
