As far as blessing God, read the Word of God and you will understand what it means to bless God.

Nice idea.
Myself, I like the structure a denomination provides, so that no one [or no doctrine] gets out of balance. But, you are right, we were created to bless the Lord. And, no, my denomination [Assemblies of God] are not the only ones going to Heaven. God is not willing that any should perish...

That is a very naive approach to the teachings of Jesus Christ. If He taught it we should listen to it. Jesus said, "If you love me you will keep my commandments." Bible teaching is based upon growing to spiritual maturity, and to remain a spiritual baby makes you useless in the kingdom of God. You should read the purposes of the church in Ephesians 4 and 5, but, of course, then you would have to get into doctrine and you can't do that if you are going to "forget about doctrine." I pray that people will not find the truth, as you know it.

Even the idea that we should bless the Lord is a doctrine. There is no such thing as Christianity without doctrines. That is why there are denominations.

once again...your are saying that only your belief structure is right, which is why "doctrine" is inherently flawed, for all the people you "disagree" with either do not believe in "God" as God, or believe that the supreme being is something other then "your vision" of God. So how does your method prove a true middle ground for people to all believe as they must, and do it free of ridicule?

Forgetting the doctrines and denominations is a great idea. Forget sects and different faiths while you're at it.
Why not praise good people instead? Then you don't even have to fight with people who don't share your god.

Thanks I'll stick to truth as I logically understand it... I can't figure out why an omnipotent being would need MY "blessing".
