you don't want to know what I think about Islam and the false prophet with the mark of the beast filled with wrath that will take your head should you fail to convert...

Another interesting fact is why people worship a Jesus they don't know. A Christian cannot know a Jesus of the gospels because he doesn't exist. He died 2000 years ago. The only Jesus a Christian can now know is a risen Christ...one who sits in power, authority, wealth and honor. One who calls believers brothers which makes them sons of God. Yet millions worship what he was...not who he is. Odd aye!
Mary conceived of the Holy Ghost, does not mean she was born again.

Jesus had to die on the cross and be raised up again, for if He did not ascend into Heaven, The Holy Spirit would not be in this world
Hehehe- you dont know your bible much. So when did the holy spirit come down - was it already in the pre-existing Triune god at the formation of the world out of chaos as per Genesis or did it come down many years after the death of Jesus in Acts 2: 5-13? Seems like according to you Jehovah was a different god than the New Testament one. The Holy spirit also seemed to descend on Mary impregnating her with the immaculate conception
are calling Jesus a liar???
This stands to reason that Jesus was also a Nephilim as he was the son of Gabrial.
It is for this reason that a woman ought to have authority over her own head, because of the angels.
No not really. Trinity is Father God. Jesus God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.

Isn't it fair to assume that the "Holy Spirit" is one in the same as the "Angel of the Lord" from the Old Testament?
Angel of the Lord [S]
(Heb. mal'ak yehwah). Supernatural being who bears a message on behalf of God. In many passages in the Old Testament, the angel of the Lord is identified with God, while in other instances a distinction is made between the Lord and the angel. In general, however, the terms "the angel of the Lord, " "the Lord, " and "God" are interchangeable.

You do know having faith there is something after death isnt worshipping or wanting to die right?
DEath is the way out for us ALL though cause no one gets out alive.
One more thing. Arent people who are religious and follow the moral in the 10 commandments generally good people? You should answer that question if you answer anything.

The majority of people part of "modern" culture (as in modern at the time) have believed in some sort of afterlife, a good majority of these "modern" people have believed in the Christian version of afterlife. What have these "modern" believers in afterlife helped to build? The world we have today. Their belief that this life doesn't matter has sabotaged our world due to complacency. Complacency about war, genocide, deforestation, pollution, etc. They have believed that this world doesn't matter, it's the one that comes AFTER that matters.
That's how belief in afterlife (in the context of religious afterlife) has sabotaged this life/world.

Not to Christians. All they need is faith, not works.
Romans 4
5 However, to the one who does not work but trusts God who justifies the ungodly, their faith is credited as righteousness.
Romans 7
20 Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it.
Romans 7
16 And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good.
