Well all cults say Jesus did his bit and now you have to do yours .No you are being intentionally provocative.
This is now off the charts ?? but I'm curious where your getting this stuff from ? Wasn't everything created for Jesus Christ ? Col 1.15-...Jesus is pictured in the placenta
It has a blood of its own
It has a life of its own
It is a sacrificial life for the sake of new life
It is a mediator between the source of life and the seed of life
it protects it from judgement of antibodies that would consider it foreign to that life.
God made Creation for the purpose of our understanding Him and His nature, how spiritual things work.

If you abide in Him, you Will bear the fruit
The fruit of Holy Spirit is love, not sin, humble not self righteous
If I abide in the vine and the vine produces fruit in me is that the work of my own abiding?I agree with the book of James, not your interpretation. Read what I wrote, that's what I believe.
If you are saved you will bear fruit not of works if your own hands, but of the Spirit.
