“I understand is not good to ascribe the glory of God to a mortal being but again we should check those two words carefully. First calling someone lord isn’t a sin or blasphemy for married women do called their husband “my lord” lord could be a title in some places just like the title of knight “Sir” but the difference is that we have a Lord above all lords. The bible also acknowledged that fact that there are people refer as lord as to the reasons Christ was called Lord lords same way we have kings & Him been the King of kings. Then talking about saviour I think that word could be ascribe to anyone who plays a vital role towards one safety or rescue. Haven’t we come across words such as “Thank God for my friend who became my saviour when I was in grave danger” anyone who saves u can be ascribe as a saviour, we shouldn’t connotate everything to be spiritual but again Christ is the greatest Saviour of all ages.”

I always make sure my criticism are constructive.
