Here is the only answer for all who have the fallen flesh and have been forever justified by faith in Jesus Christ.
Ro 4:8 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.
Ro 7:18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing
2Co 5:21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

Jesus isn't enough for him....His promises, His love.. His acceptance, etc. To him...Jesus is this scary God that doesn't keep His promises unless we hold up our end of the bargain....which he then defines what our end of the bargain is on faulty theology and applies it to everyone else. He lives in a self made prison.

What If I made my children perform to gain my acceptance...what if I made them fear that if they didn't repent for every tiny infraction that I would throw them out with the garbage. Just on the basis of what agape love really is and what it means...what it implies...Jason falls way far short in his assessment of who Jesus really is.
I just wanted to share with him on what it feels like to live in the Lord's grace.
Presenting scripture is completely useless. Circular arguments. So, once in awhile l try to connect with him on a flawed human level.
He hates that.
He will come back and say
"Do you have scripture to back up how you feel inside? In other words, if you don't become a robot, you will live in sin, and let sin dominate all sin that sins are sinning in. Anyways, you have no proof on how you feel"

I agree, and i don't believe he even knows what he believes due to not answering specific questions about his own sin. When he does, he begins to think, (for himself) and he proceeds to skip posters asking direct questions. I believe he's blinded and controlled. But i do believe chiseling is good. Every truth is profitable. Run the race with patience. God is good.

I know. 
He tackles the Bible like its a cookbook.

What gets me is that people continue to look at this as one sided, even when they use human comparisons.
If you don't do this or do that I will not love you any less, however what they seem to fail at looking at, and even the bible shows this standard. That if the person choices themselves to walk away from God they are forfeiting their own salvation by choosing not to continue walking with the Lord as Apostle Paul clearly says we have to do in the faith.
Just like I know of situations where even though the parents raised the child to what they deemed was right, when the child became a young adult they disowned their parents and walked away from them never to talk to them or see them ever again.....
Same goes with salvation, if you choose to walk your own way instead of walk by faith/fruits of the Spirit/how the Lord said then you are not walking the narrow path. Apostle James clearly says a person who wanders away from walking in the faith, their soul is not saved unless they come back to the Lord (5:19-20).
