Jesus Christ is comming back here

[Vod]

And if you think you're in control of your life, stop your heart, after all you didn't start it, at least not with your consciousness. So if you did nothing to initiate your existence why would you think you have the audacity to tell how life came about?

Hey, if you didn't invent the TCP/IP protocol, why do you have the audacity to use the internet?

[Hello_Bubble_World]

I’ll take my chances with the one who doesn’t threaten eternal suffering for disobeying him. Thanks for the concern though OP.

Ah! You are taking your chances with Jesus, the one who went through Hell for you to save you.

What about good people who are raised Buddhist, for example? Their parents tried to do well, but the Christian new testament says they are doomed to the lake of fire. Is this something you like to believe, and how is that fair?

It doesn't seem fair. But it is more like a ship goes down about a mile away from you in your yacht. How many of the several hundred people in the water can you save, if you can even get there on time?

Many people of many religions have it hard, just because of what they have been brought up with. And, it is our Christian duty to let them know about Jesus salvation. We Christians aren't doing a very good job, are we. But how much can anybody talk to a Buddhist? How long will it take to get him to see that Buddhism won't save him?

Since you know this, and since you brought up the Buddhist example, you might be closer to Buddhists than many other people are. Get out here and work with them and save a few of them. Most of them won't accept your message except when you say it just the right way.

Every night, before you fall asleep, just repeat "fairy tales are not real."

It shows a person's character if they believe another person will be tortured forever just because they have common sense.

Just because you seem to be sure of your religion, doesn't make it real.

Just because you seem to be sure of your religion, doesn't make it real.

Exactly. Even if I were 100% sure hell existed, it wouldn't be real.

Since you are blind to it, it won't be real for you until you get there.

Nice god you imagine you have.   Create me just to torture me for all eternity.

God created all people for His glory and theirs. If you want to throw your glory away, that's up to you. God allows you this freedom... or freedom to be saved if you want. When Jesus comes back, it will be too late to change your mind.

When is that?  Could you, Jesus, God, the three Musketeers (Son, Father and the Holy Spirit) be more specific?

BTW,  it is never too late to change one's mind.  Read your fucking Christian mythology.  It is right there.

Rapists, serial killers change their mind every day and are all forgiven.  Born again 'Christians'.

God gave people brain, enabled some of them with critical thinking skills, provided no evidence of his existence,
played hide and seek for millennia,  and then he will punish those who used their head to not believe in pagan myths without evidence?  

Are you sure you thought this through?

Ask Jesus to post here, or shut the fuck up about your imaginary friend.

There is literally no point for god to wait to come back. He could literally create as many humans as he wants anyways at any time, pointless.

My point is, you imagine your god to be all powerful.  So it knows that I am going to reject it due to my intelligence.

You imagine I am created just to be tortured for all eternity.

That makes you, and everyone else that imagines a god that would do the same, one sick fuck.  :/

I don't have to imagine your God to be all powerful. He has told us He is, in the Bible. And He has shown us He is, by the universe He created, and by the Bible prophesies He has fulfilled.

You aren't created to be tortured for all eternity. But the essence of what you are makes your decision to be tortured an eternal thing.

I try to keep my focus on God, so that I don't imagine a god. By not focusing on God, you imagine yourself to be a god. That's a destructive sickness you have there.

[Mpamaegbu]

This is nonsense. There is no Jesus or God or anything like that. The only reason you embrace this belief is because it makes you feel better about dying one day. What a waste of time.

Agree with that. Christianity is another business minded religion, and the sole intention of those who propagate it is to get themselves rich. The Catholic church is perhaps the richest organization in the world, with net assets worth close to $10 trillion. Even then, most of the Christian believers in Africa and Asia live in a state of destitution.

Well, that the Catholic Church is a whore and did bastardize the Bible doctrine doesn't  mean God doesn't exist. Your narration doesn't add up. Again, being an atheist doesn't also deny the existence of God. It only beclouds the sense of judgment of anyone indulging in atheism self denial of what is truly in existence.

Besides, you can get copies of the Septuagint, a Greek Bible that is way older than the Catholic Bible.

You are confusing my non-existent god with your imaginary god in your mind.

Please don't infer I am a mental wack job that believes in fairy tales.

No. You're confusing the imaginary god you think I have, with the real God Whose I am.

You probably aren't a mental whack-job, but you certainly are a spiritual whack-job.

True, you can get stories way older than the bible.

True, you can get stories way older than the bible.

But you can't get true stories that are older than the oldest true Bible stories... the creation story for example.

Moses wrote the first 5 books of the Bible. Being at least a prince in Egypt for a while, he had access to records that don't exist today. So, which came first? The records that Moses had, or the few surviving records that we have today?

Your "Quora" site doesn't have an explanation that shows why Moses couldn't have had better records that we don't have. Therefore, your Quora site explanation is simply speculation.
