Good morning Mark,

On what do you base your belief system in if you discount the bible? It is apparent that you do believe in God, you acknowledge that like us all you have sinned, I understand these things, but what is your foundation? Can you claim personal experience or dialogue with the creator? I know Christians that do but what they have said does not contradict scripture.
Is simply believing in God sufficient?
James 2:19 "Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble."

Mark, I must constantly refer back to scripture because it is my foundation and I can couple my own thoughts and experiences with it. My test for truth is if those ideas or experiences are supported by God's word. I respect your opinion and will never make light of it but I would really like to know what you base your beliefs on as it will help me to better understand your thoughts.

God bless,
John
