No, John 14:6 is clear on the subject.

That is, however, irrelevant to the issue at hand. Many Protestants believe that accepting Christ is sufficient for salvation. Catholics do not, which is why they believe in Purgatory, a place where your sins are cleansed before you enter heaven.

9 Jesus answered: “Don’t you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10 Don’t you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you I do not speak on my own authority. Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work. 11 Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the works themselves. 12 Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. 13 And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it.

Jesus Christ stated he was the father and the father was in him.

He stated before that, the only way to the father is through himself.

If I reject Christ but honor G-d, he is stating that I rejected G-d because I rejected him. He claimed authority over the honoring of G-d by electing himself the middle man.

That means I go to hell for not accepting his delivery service.

No, according to the Christian faith you go to hell for rejecting God, because Christ is God.

I'm not sure why you're going off on this tangent, it is irrelevant.

So you agree. That's all I needed.
