You should ask her, but I'm sure it was not so that she could post here. Remember that even the devil can post here.

To become a son of God would be the Biblical language. I guess somebody might call that a superman, but I wouldn't, just like I didn't like the title for Jesus being, "Jesus Christ Superstar."

Go jump in some mud and get completely muddy. Then go take a bath and wash it all off. Are you still muddy? Are you dirtier or cleaner than before you jumped in the mud? What do you think happens when Jesus washes away sins? Does he give a bad bath and leave some sin behind? Do you think Jesus needs better soap or something? What exactly does "wash away your sins" mean to you? What does the idea of "cleansing us from all sin" mean to you? "... the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin."
