Yes, if a god exists and WANTS my respect (which he obviously seems to want, which is why he wants to spread his word), he needs to EARN it. If he doesnt want it, fine. I dont want his either. Being god is no merit, nothing to respect by default in my opinion.
If you think thats cringe, read the bible. THATS cringe.
Hebrews 2:9
King James Version
9 But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.
Hebrews 12:2
King James Version
2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Romans 5:8
King James Version
8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be
lifted up:
15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.'Lifted up' is a prophetic foreshadowing of Jesus' sacrifice on the cross.
Man has a sin problem, which leads to death & separation from God, and Jesus is the
only solution God has given us. Absolutely worthy.
Also, He gave you breath and life. Absolutely worthy. Praise the Lord.
