SB,
I understand you believe what you believe, but that is not necessarily true.
I also base my belief on the bible as I understand it. If I am wrong God will decide. I don't tend to tell people they are wrong. I only tell them what I believe.
First of all I didn't say righteous people I said peaceful people which is a different thing. Peaceful people are those who love peace and doesn't mean they don't have sinned.
“Blessed are the gentle, for they will inherit the earth. “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be satisfied. “Blessed are the merciful, for they will receive mercy. “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God.
Matthew 5:5-9
Yes, people sin because of their nature but that it's a consequence of Adam's rebellion and sin. And yes I believe Jesus's sacrifice .
"Now to the one who works, the wages are not credited as a favor, but as what is due. But to the one who does not work, but believes in Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is credited as righteousness, just as David also speaks of the blessing of the person to whom God credits righteousness apart from works: “Blessed are those whose lawless deeds have been forgiven, And whose sins have been covered. “Blessed is the man whose sin the Lord will not take into account.”
Romans 4:4-6
After being saved people can't sin anymore.
“And their sins and their lawless deeds I will no longer remember.” Now where there is forgiveness of these things, an offering for sin is no longer required. For if we go on sinning willfully after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a terrifying expectation of judgment and the fury of a fire which will consume the adversaries.
Hebrews 10:17-18, 26-27
I can't agree with you on trinity and that Michael is not Jesus.
“Now at that time Michael, the great prince who stands guard over the sons of your people, will arise. And there will be a time of distress such as never occurred since there was a nation until that time; and at that time your people, everyone who is found written in the book, will be rescued."
Daniel 12:1 NASB2020
"and nothing unclean, and no one who practices abomination and lying, shall ever come into it, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb’s book of life."Revelation 21:27
“Tell us, when will these things happen, and what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?”
"For then there will be a great tribulation, such as has not occurred since the beginning of the world until now, nor ever will again. And if those days had not been cut short, no life would have been saved; but for the sake of the elect those days will be cut short."
Matthew 24:3, 21-22
Same tribulation when Michael comes, as well as Jesus's second coming .
Origin: The name Michael is of Hebrew origin and means “who is like God?” or “gift from God.
"And He is the radiance of His glory and the exact representation of His nature, and upholds all things by the word of His power. When He had made purification of sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, having become so much better than the angels, to the extent that He has inherited a more excellent name than they. But regarding the Son He says, “Your throne, God, is forever and ever, And the scepter of righteousness is the scepter of His kingdom. “You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness; Therefore God, Your God, has anointed You With the oil of joy above Your companions.”Hebrews 1:3-4, 8-9
“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life."John 3:16
"For the wages of sin is death, but the gracious gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.Romans 6:23
Jesus explains here very clearly that oneness with God it's unity of purpose and action.
“I am not asking on behalf of these alone, but also for those who believe in Me through their word, that they may all be one; just as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they also may be in Us, so that the world may believe that You sent Me. The glory which You have given Me I also have given to them, so that they may be one, just as We are one; I in them and You in Me, that they may be perfected in unity, so that the world may know that You sent Me, and You loved them, just as You loved Me.
John 17:20-23 NASB2020
"If you see my you se my father " -Jesus meant that he was representing the Father:
"I have come in My Father’s name, and you do not receive Me; if another comes in his own name, you will receive him."
“I can do nothing on My own. As I hear, I judge; and My judgment is righteous, because I do not seek My own will but the will of Him who sent Me.John 5:30
John 5:43 because Jesus is the mediator between man and God.
No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.
John 1:18 and no man can see God an live.
Moreover, Jesus was dead for three days and then was resurrected by his Father, whereas the bible says that Jehovah is immortal.
We can carry on like this forever. I don't se how you can prove your point without omitting all this evidence.
"But because of your stubbornness and unrepentant heart you are storing up wrath for yourself on the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God, who will repay each person according to his deeds: to those who by perseverance in doing good seek glory, honor, and immortality, He will give eternal life; but to those who are self-serving and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, He will give wrath and indignation."
Romans 2:5-8 NASB2020
