I told you that the man believes Jesus to be a prophet and not divine. He believes in his teachings, but not in his divine nature. This would include the belief that "Jesus died for our sins"
All of your quotes could be read in the following way
Jesus was telling you what God really thought.
Jesus had good philosophy on life
Live life as Jesus told you to.
It never says anything about dying on a cross
BTW, why do you reference John so much. I would prefer it if you referred to a Gospel writer that we actually know the identity of.
