And in that moment you will understand that what kept you from belief was a flaw, and not a strength, a willful flaw inside of yourself. Seeking evidence is a flaw. Believe things with no evidence, that's the virtue. Forget about all those other religions that go by faith. Go with the one you were indoctrinated with. Just like those people of other contradictory religions. What a great way to get to truth. [/sarcasm] |

It is sinful nature and absence of a personal relationship with Him that leads to hell. In fact, God has done the exact opposite. He sent His son, Jesus, to be a living earthly example of His love....to teach, to be a witness and testimony of God's love. And then to die for us. Jesus was ridiculed, beaten, tortured and died in our place for our sin. |

Those of you who claim you do not believe are denying the truth and lying to yourselves.
Search your heart, read the bible everything he said in the video can be found within it. Jesus is the only person who ever died and came back to life. He lived a sinless life and died for us, so that you may live, if you only believe in HIM! Before Jesus returns the world will know who he is and everyone has a choice to make. If you go to hell it was your by choice. Chose wisely, accept the sacrifice Jesus made for you, repent and turn from your sin. If I am wrong in what I believe I loose nothing. If a non believer is wrong in what they believe they will loose everything. Our Father in heaven is a loving God and he leaves it up to us to love him or not. Our actions demonstrate weather we choose to love and honor God or not. Again, repent, turn from sin, thank Jesus for what he did for you and live a life that honors God. |

Those of you who claim you do not believe are denying the truth and lying to yourselves. How do you know it's the truth? Your parents told you? Your society told you?

Jesus is the only person who ever died and came back to life. He lived a sinless life and died for us, so that you may live, if you only believe in HIM!There are many people who are claimed to have died and came back to life.

If you go to hell it was your by choice.Reaching conclusions without having good evidence is a bad way to get to truth. The only honest thing to do is wait until sufficient evidence is given. One shouldn't believe in an invisible teapot in the Andromeda galaxy until there's good evidence for it. Chose wisely, accept the sacrifice Jesus made for you, repent and turn from your sin. I'm not (and you're not) responsible for a person eating an apple thousands/millions of years ago. People are outraged by the mere suggestion that they're responsible for their grandfather being a slave-owner but willingly accept that they're responsible for someone eating an apple thousands/millions of years ago and take on that "sin". You are responsible for yourself. Nobody can take on your "sins". Nobody can apologize to those you have hurt but you. If I am wrong in what I believe I loose nothing. If a non believer is wrong in what they believe they will loose everything.Pascal's wager. What about all the other religions where you are going to hell forever/punished? Does God take odds? Our Father in heaven is a loving God and he leaves it up to us to love him or not. Our actions demonstrate weather we choose to love and honor God or not.God watches children get raped and does nothing even though he's all-powerful. That's not loving. If you saw a child getting raped, wouldn't you stop it? There's no freewill on the part of the victim. Is children getting raped just part of his mysterious loving master plan? Is God too busy curing people's kneepain? View Quote |

I'm open to Religion but I just don't see how these folks say this and then offer up no proof. View Quote Faith is antithetical to evidence/"proof". Christians make a virtue of believing things without good evidence, because they don't have good evidence. They desperately want it though, and will dump faith in a second if they had good evidence (see them posting Christian near-death experiences, etc.). They know deep down that faith is a bad way to get to truth, they would throw faith out as a way to get to truth if they had good evidence (which they don't). |

Well, God did murder untold numbers of children and babies as part of his plan, and he obviously does have power to prevent child rape, so it is reasonable to conclude that kids being raped is indeed part of his plan. It should be clear that what God really loves is seeing torture, killing, and destruction. He apparently also likes watching naked people, since he created Adam and Eve naked, even though nudity was shameful and evil. |
