"We are incapable of determining what God is required to do or not do. The reason is, we are His creation and He is our Creator. He is also the author of morality. Therefore, we do not create systems of rules for which we obligate God to fit into or not and then determine or conclude He is loving or not. Scripture speaks to all people who are born in environments of various religions and exposure to (or lack thereof) the gospel:"
Yet Christianity is the only way to subscribe to God?
So YOU anthropomorphize God, say that the only way to God is Christianity, discredit all other ways of reaching God, and then say we can't figure out what God wants to do?
You're free to worship God in anyway you choose. I don't have a problem with Christianity, but your argument is poor.
You have to say that because you have nothing else to say. Just pretend that I copied and pasted my previous comment, and then re-read it… but this time, make a real effort to understand it
Furthermore, anthropomorphism is not equal to letting God be who He is. You are creating a strawman argument (in ignorance) for the sake of making further opposition to me, but the problem is you do not understand what that word means. If you did, you would recognize my comment is the opposite of that. In a way, you are projecting that argument toward me, and I’ll explain how:
You create your own system of man-made rules and moral authority, and then you force God to fit into it against and in the face of God being the supreme moral law giver as revealed in the Word of God. So, in that sense you are making God more like a human (human characterization of God), when in reality He transcends what you perceive Him and obligate Him to be.

Meanwhile, I'm the one arguing that trying to pigeon hole everyone into one religion by being the moral authority on religions seems really strawman.
Projection much?
So you agree that God transcends human perception, yet you claim he wants everyone to be Christian?
Are you listening to yourself?
You are not equipped for this. This has become tiresome because you choose obstinance over willingness to learn and understand. I will no longer comment with you because it has no profit or value beyond this.
"I'm not equipped for this"?
YOU freely interpret God. Then you say other people who interpret God differently are not equipped.
You're right. I'm not prepared to believe God is understandable by man in any capacity and will stick with Daoism. I'm not going to THEN claim God wants everyone want to be Daoist and try to make that the dominant religion while preaching God is incomprehensible.
