You plead with the Lord:

"Am I not a Christian? Am I not saved? I thought you only have to *believe* to be saved"
BearBear, what you now speak is worse than distorted or misinformed, you have now moved into heresy and the absurd.

I Samuel 15.22 "Samuel said, "Has the LORD as much delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, As in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, And to heed than the fat of rams."

You took a verse out of context, spoken by Samuel to King Saul after disobeying God, and now applied it to all Christians. When did any of us sacrifice a ram?

Have you become the Judge of all? You are now playing God, and that's a dangerous act to follow. You are all alone on you soapbox, perhaps you should start reading the Bible for yourself, and start repenting.
