Oh, my good man, what you don't understand is that while christians hate to be rich, churches themselves are not cheap. Not this might seem like a contradiction of sorts, you have to understand that you can't just pray in a hovel. Good christian feelings only come under certain conditions.
Well even if that was right, there is no reason for the believers to be rich. Why do they have money and don't simply give everything to the church? But in order to be able to give a lot of money to the church, you first have to get rich. That's why they get rich - because they want to be poor. Damn man you killed me xD That's one hell of an argument! "but in order to become nice I first need to be evil no?" xD You've understood perfectly! Finally - brothers and sisters we have another atheist brother in our midst!

The bible says God can make you rich as long as you will follow Him and serve Him with all your heart,mind,strength and soul. He can make you prosperous.
Matthew 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
Proverbs 10:22 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
I'm a Christian and I'm not that rich but I'm rich in the love of Dearest Jesus Christ. He changed my life from being a bad person, troublemaker,liar and everything that are not good in the sight of our Dearest Lord. I've done it. But now I want you to know that God exist! He is alive. If you have faith then He will make miracles in your life that you won't know that it is possible with Him.
I don't want to argue or debate with you guys I'm just sharing how God is so good to me.
I love you all in the Lord but Dearest Jesus loves you all more and more.

Peace be upon you. Read the Bible again. Bible is the basis of your belief system. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1367154.0You can achieve peace of mind, happiness with a bit of meditation. If you managed to convince yourself that Jesus Christ is real, that is fine. But it does not make it true, outside your brain. He does not exist in real world. Period. If you care about whether your belief is based on truth you should investigate if it is. But if you don't care if it is true, go ahead believe what you believe. Just don't preach your insanity to children. Take care. I mean it.

He did exist 2,000 years ago. The bible is also about the history and many historians compared it and there are accurate scriptures / happenings that did happen in the past. Like the babylonia, Egypt and even Israel. And I think you know it.

Like the babylonia, Egypt and even Israel. And I think you know it. First off, the "bible" wasn't even compiled until 331 AD when a bunch of dudes voted on it https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Council_of_NicaeaIt is most definitely not historically accurate... Many dates are off by a factor of 30-100 years (the reign of certain kings for example)... If you compare the gospels, you will find Jesus appears in cities hundreds of miles apart on the same day without any mention of teleporting himself and his 12 disciples The list of historical inaccuracies is quite long... There is literally zero non-biblical evidence that Jesus ever existed https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christ_myth_theoryFeel free to check out Dr. Richard Carrier's book, On the Historicity of Jesus: Why We Might Have Reason for DoubtThere are also many unknowns about the bible... like who wrote which books, and when... The earliest gospel (Luke) was supposedly written 40 years after Jesus died. Given that would put the author at more than double the life expectancy, it's likely not an eye-witness account... Even if it was, how well do you remember events from 40 years ago? The gospels written after Luke almost certainly copied vast sections Even the books attributed to Moses are up for debate... some contend there are four or more authors of the Pentateuch https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Documentary_hypothesis

I know you are very sincere about what you believe. I do understand it. I was in your shoes. It is your choice to stay ignorant of facts, and continue on your path to insanity. You have brain, use it. Let me ask you this: do you believe in global flood and Noah's ark as described in the Bible? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F4OhXQTMOEc

If one sits down and thinks logically for a few minutes then he will have no reason to doubt that God does exist. In peace everybody can feel the existence of God for sure. God lives within us.
After all, look around you, that red rose spewing out perfume, isn't it perfect? how crops grow perfectly, when rain falls, the sun shines, rivers flowing endlessly, surely a human can not have created it. Only God can.

Is that another one of God's lovely gifts to mankind? For every flower, there is a thorn or poison ivy... for every cute puppy, there is a crocodile... you can't cherry pick your perfect world... it's far from perfect My favorite are the mosquitoes... God must have been in a sour mood when he created the mosquito, right?

For every flower, there is a thorn or poison ivy... for every cute puppy, there is a crocodile... you can't cherry pick your perfect world... it's far from perfect My favorite are the mosquitoes... God must have been in a sour mood when he created the mosquito, right? There was a time that the devil, Satan, was a good angel. In fact, he was one of the best. He walked with God. He was trained in much of the knowledge of God. He was God's friend. Then Satan corrupted his ways, turned against God, and introduced problems into the world and universe. The problems he introduced should have been enough to destroy the universe. Personally, I think that he was surprised that the universe wasn't destroyed. He had enlisted mankind in this destruction activity, through deception. Jesus, God's Son, upheld the universe. Jesus gave mankind a second chance. The way Jesus did this was to allow some of Satan's destruction changes to remain. The changes have been converted into good things, that operate well, as bitgolden suggests. But why didn't Jesus completely change things so that there weren't even the least bits of Satan's destruction left? The reason is that God is creating a New Universe that is far better than this one. This universe will be destroyed - partially a gift to Satan, because this is what Satan wanted in the first place. The time of life that we have here is a time of salvation for us. It is a time that we have been given to make a choice - will we be on God's side and join Him in the New Universe? or will we go down with Satan at the time of destruction of this universe. The time of judgement is near. Even if God allows the universe to go on for another 10,000 years, the time of judgement for each of us is near. When is that time of judgement? It is when we die. Why? Because at that time we no longer have any way to change our minds about salvation. We are locked into the things that we believe and understand at the time we die. We are locked into our rejection or acceptance of God, and His method of salvation for us at that time. Personally, I would rather accept God's salvation for me... salvation into a new universe that is better than this one. I don't generally like the idea that I am going to say now, but it is a reasonably logical idea anyway. This idea is that even if I thought in the direction that God and religion were silly, I would do my best to become a Christian, anyway. Why? Because nobody knows that God does NOT exist. And if He does exist after all, I would NOT want to miss out on salvation. Besides, Christians have a great life these days, even if somehow God did not exist, and even if the grave happened to be final. So, why not attempt to turn and believe in God, just to cover your bet, so to speak.

The bible says God can make you rich as long as you will follow Him and serve Him with all your heart,mind,strength and soul. He can make you prosperous.
Matthew 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
Proverbs 10:22 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
I'm a Christian and I'm not that rich but I'm rich in the love of Dearest Jesus Christ. He changed my life from being a bad person, troublemaker,liar and everything that are not good in the sight of our Dearest Lord. I've done it. But now I want you to know that God exist! He is alive. If you have faith then He will make miracles in your life that you won't know that it is possible with Him.
I don't want to argue or debate with you guys I'm just sharing how God is so good to me.
I love you all in the Lord but Dearest Jesus loves you all more and more.
But how will you go to heaven if you're rich? "Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God" Matthew 19:24

Why do you act so dense? Oh, I know. You think that you can't be saved, because you are unwilling to get laughed by all you atheist friends who would think you were nuts if you became a Christian. Forget your friends. Missing out on eternal life isn't worth having those kinds of friends for a piddly 60 or 80 years here. You're smarter than that. Actually, there are many rich Christians who give to help the poor, just like there are many rich atheists who give to help the poor. Wealth itself, and the using of it doesn't have anything with getting to Heaven. Faith in Jesus salvation is the only way for salvation.

You are finally getting it. It is not possible for anything that you or I can do. But nothing is impossible for God to do. That's part of the reason that Jesus had to be God as well as man. It was man who sinned, so it was man who had to pay. But man couldn't pay enough (go through the eye of a needle, so to speak). That's why Jesus is God as well, so that the payment could be enough. Jesus being man, could do nothing other than to offer the work of salvation he did to other people. If He didn't, He would not be fulfilling the law of love that is a requirement. But, Jesus does not force salvation on anyone. That would not be according to the law of love, either. You get your choice. Accept the thing that is impossible for you but is not impossible for God. Accept it as it is, the free gift from Jesus. Or die the eternal death. Your choice.

Jesus being man, could do nothing other than to offer the work of salvation he did to other people. If He didn't, He would not be fulfilling the law of love that is a requirement. But, Jesus does not force salvation on anyone. That would not be according to the law of love, either. You get your choice. Accept the thing that is impossible for you but is not impossible for God. Accept it as it is, the free gift from Jesus. Or die the eternal death. Your choice. ahahah xD Ok so he said we had to be poor to go to heaven but if we're not but accept Jesus it works that's it?

I don't generally like the idea that I am going to say now, but it is a reasonably logical idea anyway. This idea is that even if I thought in the direction that God and religion were silly, I would do my best to become a Christian, anyway. Why? Because nobody knows that God does NOT exist. And if He does exist after all, I would NOT want to miss out on salvation. Besides, Christians have a great life these days, even if somehow God did not exist, and even if the grave happened to be final. So, why not attempt to turn and believe in God, just to cover your bet, so to speak. What you're talking about is a well know logical fallacy called the Pascal's bet. It was explained by Blaise Pascal, a French philosopher and scientist. It is wrong in numerous way. First one is: what if God is not the good one? You talk about Jesus and shit but for Muslims if you follow Christian God you're also going to hell. So which God is the good one?

The bible says God can make you rich as long as you will follow Him and serve Him with all your heart,mind,strength and soul. He can make you prosperous.
Matthew 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
Proverbs 10:22 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
I'm a Christian and I'm not that rich but I'm rich in the love of Dearest Jesus Christ. He changed my life from being a bad person, troublemaker,liar and everything that are not good in the sight of our Dearest Lord. I've done it. But now I want you to know that God exist! He is alive. If you have faith then He will make miracles in your life that you won't know that it is possible with Him.
I don't want to argue or debate with you guys I'm just sharing how God is so good to me.
I love you all in the Lord but Dearest Jesus loves you all more and more.
But how will you go to heaven if you're rich? "Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God" Matthew 19:24 Through greater difficulty, that's all. Why do you act so dense? Oh, I know. You think that you can't be saved, because you are unwilling to get laughed by all you atheist friends who would think you were nuts if you became a Christian. Forget your friends. Missing out on eternal life isn't worth having those kinds of friends for a piddly 60 or 80 years here. You're smarter than that. Actually, there are many rich Christians who give to help the poor, just like there are many rich atheists who give to help the poor. Wealth itself, and the using of it doesn't have anything with getting to Heaven. Faith in Jesus salvation is the only way for salvation. Dude "easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God" It means it's not possible for a rich to go to heaven, it's not "difficult" it's not possible! You are finally getting it. It is not possible for anything that you or I can do. But nothing is impossible for God to do. That's part of the reason that Jesus had to be God as well as man. It was man who sinned, so it was man who had to pay. But man couldn't pay enough (go through the eye of a needle, so to speak). That's why Jesus is God as well, so that the payment could be enough. Jesus being man, could do nothing other than to offer the work of salvation he did to other people. If He didn't, He would not be fulfilling the law of love that is a requirement. But, Jesus does not force salvation on anyone. That would not be according to the law of love, either. You get your choice. Accept the thing that is impossible for you but is not impossible for God. Accept it as it is, the free gift from Jesus. Or die the eternal death. Your choice. ahahah xD Ok so he said we had to be poor to go to heaven but if we're not but accept Jesus it works that's it? You are starting to miss it again. Jesus said, as you quoted, that it is more difficult. If He had meant impossible, he would have said impossible. Following what Jesus said, His disciples asked, "Who then can be saved?" Jesus, Himself, answered that with man it is impossible, but with God all things are possible. Believe Jesus God when He tells you that He is the way to be saved. Further, if you don't have a thin dime to your name, are you rich or not? You seem to be able to type answers in the forum, here. Do you have arms, hands, and a body? If your hands were destroyed in some freak accident, and you were a $trillionaire, would that be enough to get your hands grown back medically? Maybe these days. The point is, everybody who is alive is rich with natural wealth, just in the fact of whatever amount of life he has, because without that wealth naturally, there is no way to buy it. So, we are all wealthy beyond imagination.
