The late, great quintessential historian extraordinaire, Mr. John Henrik Clarke!
Let me take a shot at that conundrum.
One is truthful, the other is a liar and the progenitor of modern day white fraudulent evangelicals.
The truthful one is devout: KJV 4:24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
The liar awaits judgement: KJV 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
