Not Drowning, Waving is the name of a defunked Australian rock band.... some post titles were musical in nature and I only sought to continue that ... interesting (and typical) that you give it the religious slant with your title.

>Here�s my view of Christianity. There are rewards for
>righteousness and everlasting life is one of them.

>>> What is everlasting life? ... how do you feel when you're in heaven?

>However, because everlasting life is an infinite
>reward, inheriting it requires moral perfection, and
>no human has achieved it.

>>> How do you know that no one has achieved it? If there's no one there ... what's the point of having heaven in the first place? Why is living forever in heaven a reward ... if you can't leave heaven, it means you are not free! .... how can being trapped be a reward?

>However, one who is clean and without sin can pay the >price for those who have if the transgressors willingly >accept this guilt offering. Jesus died for our sins, but >we will die for our own sins unless we accept his offer.

>>> guilt? ... guilt about what? Jesus died because Rome saw him as a threat. He is not the son of a god.
