Ask him for forgiveness. He will have mercy on you, Yes I truly agree. With out faith you have nothing at all.

Nope don't agree.
Jesus never wanted to be called lord. The term lord did not come into common use until the 4th century ad when the Romans took over the christian faith and re assembled it to fit their tastes. The Romans wanted to feel important, they liked to feel like their subjects worshiped them and they could not imagine a God that did not feel the same way. For this reason they started to promote the idea of calling Jesus lord.
Everyone is the son of God and Jesus is not an exception to this rule, nor is he unique in this respect.
There is no need for his mercy because you are not a sinner.
The first thing that someone should be considering is whether the idea of sin is actually real.
If God is supposed to be perfect how could She have made anything or anyone that wasn't perfect.
Think about it. The idea of sin assumes certain things about God that seem highly unlikely.
First it assumes a God who is too incompetent to organize a simple educational field excursion and figure out a way to get all of the students home safely.
How likely is this that God would not be smart enough to come up with a plan for our salvation that is going to work?
It also assumes that God must have created us imperfect if we are sinners.
One might assume that God would be able to create someone perfect each and every time if he chose to. Assuming God is capable of this, then it follows logically that we must be perfect creations if we are actually creations of this perfect God.
Unless of course you are saying that God chose to create us imperfect.
If God created us imperfect then anything that may go wrong is Gods fault, not ours. This seems a bit illogical at best so I think that we need to assume that What God creates would have to be perfect.
If this is the case and Gods creations are perfect, then nothing that we can do could change what God created perfect and make it imperfect unless we think that we are more powerful than God is.
How likely is it that we the creation could be more powerful than the creator. I personally find this idea somewhat amusing, and a bit absurd.
Religion tells us that God is perfect. If this is true then it could hardly be logically for Gods creations to be considered to be anything less than perfect.
If this is the case then Nothing that we can ever do could possibly change this perfection that God willed, unless we were so powerful that our choices could override and change the will of God.
How likely is that????
Think about it.
The idea of sin is simple nonsense; a lie made up about God by religion.

Luke 18:38, the context might be really important here. Also, question for Don H, if there were no idea of sin there would be no reason for conscience? Without conscience there would be no order. Without order there is chaos. With or without the idea of organized religion, mankind has found a need to have 'sin', antithetical to positive social order and established mores of any society..

Agree. I don't see anything to argue about here. See the parable of the Pharisee and the publican. (Luke: 18: 9-14)

Agree.
And the safety check for me is that the things the Bible says are sins and destructive, still apply today.
For instance..too much alcohol has led me to do things that have caused problems.
Pride has caused problems.
Doing sinfull things are caused problems and downfalls in my life.
Praise Jesus!! Amen!
