Questions and Statements about God...

[alissowack]

I'm curious... can you cite any of that research?

Lee Strobel is one person that has looked into this and has wrote a book about it called "The Case for Christ". He goes around and ask questions to some of the respected names in Christian theology and see if they can give answer to Jesus's existence and claims and the authors who wrote them. Though he does a good job, the answers given are not necessarily "slam dunk" answers. The theologians understand their limits and try not to build this story up to be something that it isn't.

I'm sure there are more sources, but I don't know about them. And there are those who would say something different about this, but I don't know about them either. It helps though to see both sides. Even if there is evidence in favor of Jesus's existence, it doesn't mean that He would be believed in.

My thoughts would be that if you dont believe in God, the Bible, or the messages it imparts, then fine. Live life the best way you know how and let the chips fall where they may.

What I dont understand is people arguing against something that they already do not believe in. If you dont think its true, then why bother arguing against it?

"If you dont think its true" = This is why they argue against it, because don't think it's true.

If they believed it to be true, they wouldn't argue against it.

People tend to argue about things that they don't agree with.

What's the purpose of those other planets? Didn't you know that man would have difficulties dealing with people over piety issues like the color of ones skin? I know you was probably being creative with your creations but you didn't you forsee this problem? Excuse me, of course you did, your god. What about putting that evil mr. Lucifer on the same planet as your beloved man? I mean could every different color of people and all your evil ex angels have a planet of their own? I'm just saying.

Your curious creation,

Ether

well if he didnt have man to terrorize then what would he do to occupy his time?

I agree in part; if there is a god, there's no way it's a god of compassion. But I also doubt it's a god of vengeance, due to the vast amount of wrongdoing that goes unpunished in the world. If there is a god, and I don't think there's any evidence for one, but if there is one, I don't think it would care in the least about human morality or feel human emotions.

That's my take on it. If there's a deity, he can give two fucks about what's going on on earth. considering how many billions of galaxies, stars, and planets, he not worried about us. we're just not that important in the grand scheme of things. he doesn't "love" us and is concerned if we're happy, sad, or miserable.

I won't pretend that I've read all of his books, but I do know of Lee Strobel. Honestly, I find his stuff to be flawed to say the least. But like you say, some people will find the evidence compelling and others won't.

That's what I've always thought... the gods of many of Earth's religions are very human-centric in that they feel human emotions and react to things in human ways, which to me makes it seem like those gods were conceived of by human minds. I think a true, universal god would be way, way beyond our scope, and would definitely be far above caring about whether we worshiped it.

The only thing god tells people is to look down on other people that arent the same group as them

"1 I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom; 2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. 3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. 5 But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry." 2 Timothy 4:1-5

I don't apologize for declaring the counsel of the Lord. I don't apologize for speaking the truth. And I don't apologize for being a minister of reconciliation. But I do apologize for the tone of voice I used. The gospel message either does 2 things, it will drive you to forgiveness and repentance or it will drive you away in rebellion, stubbornness, and hardness of heart. God tells His servants to preach the word in season and out of season. Why? Because people will not endure sound doctrine, due to the truth which cuts them to the heart. The truth is sharper than any 2 edged sword my brother. And many of times people can not handle the truth, so they want to attack the messenger. But I stand as an ambassador for Christ and as a witness to His awesome power. My prayer is that one day you too will stand as an ambassador for Christ so that your life can be a testimony of the transforming power of Al-Mighty God.

Brother in no way am I saying apologise for your faith or love for it.. not asking you to apologise for anything.. not seeking an apology for anything.. It was pretty clear what I said.

"And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me." John 12:32

The cross of Christ divides humanity. There are the saved and there are the lost. All men will have to make a decision about who Jesus Christ is and because all must make a decision, Jesus draws all men to Him in order to make that decision.

So all the posturing, all the debates, all the discussions, all the talks, and most recently all the message board postings that take place throughout the world in regards to who Jesus Christ is and what He did for humanity is a fulfillment of Jesus Christ words in John 12:32.

Nobody will have an excuse on the day of judgment, thus God will be justified in carrying out the punishment the wicked chose to begin with; to live without God forever.

What a shame.

Because alot of those who do are a problem for humanity, the bible preaches alot of shit that keeps people from doing certain things that we could use to help the world and also pushes people to do things to hurt the world. Religion breeds shit like slavery, the holocaust, church bombing, shooting up jewish schools, raping of women, pedophilia, oppresion of women, all types of shit that is detrimental to our survival.

BINGO!!!!!!!!!!! If Jesus Christ truly is God, he would have showed his face to us all by now, instead of hiding behind pedophile priests and a book that supports slavery. No wonder Christianity is losing its influence in the world, it's one big scam......

"12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; 13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind. 14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places. 15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; 16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: 17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?" Revelation 6:12-17

Don't worry, He's coming. Are you ready to meet Him?

[TX_Made713]

The questionable part of the story is that the last one with Mary before she became pregnant was the angel Gabriel. And we know how much those angels loved human pussy back then. Jesus was a nephilim.

Damn mary got pregnant and had to raise jesus with another man...aint that just like a black man
