I think you're ignoring parts of the gospels you don't like. John 10:

I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand. My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of my Father’s hand. I and the Father are one.

You can hear him climbing onto the pedestal as he talks about how he is greater than all.

yeah but we are all also children of god. at least if we are peacemakers.

[–] SnoopSqueak@lemmy.today 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

If we are peacemakers? Or if we accept Jesus as our savior? Cherry-picking is necessary because the bible is inconsistent. Also worth noting that Jesus said he came to bring not peace, but a sword.

Also, what's he saving us from? What he'll do to us if we don't obey? It's all bad.

yeah. exactly. it is cherry picking. again though. if this figure existed. I don't see him as that bad. For a human. For the time. Further I would say pretty decent. Some real nice things.
