You are free to walk on your own . Joining the flock is strictly voluntary but as one of the sheep in that flock I am glad to have been spared from the eventual slaughter .

The Lamb of God decided to take my place .


This reeks of cowardice.

In what way ?

The Sacrifice was complete long before I was born . Would it be braver of me to now choose death over eternal life ?

If there ever is a Judgement (which I deem highly unlikely) I'll account for my own actions and decisions which I took based on my own choices.
I don't need or want another to absolve me of my responsibility for my life.

No one can absolve his or her self .

Since all of your actions and decisions are already justified in your own mind I can understand why you think the way you do .

Quote me saying that everything I do is justified.

I said I'll take responsibility for my actions. Everything I did, I am responsible for. All the good things I've done and all the bad things I've done.
But I don't need to cling to another's definition of Right and Wrong.

So let me see if I understand what you are saying here .

If there is a God and you one day stand before Him in judgment you will ask to be held accountable for your transgressions and you will refuse any pardon ?

Do I have it right ?

Yes.


Edit: I do not even expect pardon. I am what I am, and I did what I did. If this God exists, He can do as He pleases.

You don't have to expect it in order to accept it when it is offered .

I don't expect anyone to offer me a million bucks but I am not going to preemptively refuse it .
