Sometimes when asking questions, I'm concerned I'll make a theist into an atheist, and vice versa

I'm a theist who I don't believe you could possibly convert, so ask away!🤔🧐😜😁

What kind of theist?

I am a Christian; I believe Jesus is the Creator-God who made the universe and all it contains.

Does a person need to accept Jesus as the son of God to get value from his teachings?

Great question.😃

Not at all; there is tremendous value in Jesus' teachings for anyone who actually applies them, regardless of one's belief system.

Nevertheless, that hypothetical individual, though receiving short-term value, would miss out on the greatest low time preference benefit of recognizing who Jesus is.
