Religion/Spirituality Christians come explain this

[the cac mamba]

1. God has revealed himself through the person and work of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. What about this do you fail to grasp?

well, i respect you saying the quran is bullshyt and lies i'll enjoy your hell with the muslims

this is just embarrassing though it's a fukking novel. a storybook. do you believe noah lived to be 900 years old? do you believe god really killed every firstborn in egypt? and why doesn't he do these magic tricks today, when we have cameras and know better?

jesus is just santa for adults

1. God has revealed himself through the person and work of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. What about this do you fail to grasp? God has also revealed himself through nature, the universe, and human existence. God has revealed himself through the Torah, The Gospels, and The New Testament.

2. Basic logic says something cannot be true and false at the same time. Therefore if the Bible is true, which I believe it is, I must by logic believe the Quran is false. Furthermore the Quran came hundreds of years after the New Testament and is not internally consistent. The Torah, Gospels, and New Testament are all internally consistent and in harmony with one another.

3. Once again, if the Torah, Gospels, and New Testament are false historical documents please provide us the proof that you have. You will win the next Nobel Prize if you are able to prove your discovery. The Coli is waiting.

Half of New Testament forged, Bible scholar says

but you're getting all of this from reading a novel and deluding yourself "you come to learn who god is through communication".....its all in your head

why should i read the bible instead of the quran? greek mythology?

i have no more use for the bible than you do for those texts. which, you consider fake

Assumptions assumptions....how do you know what I consider "fake" texts? I'll answer...you don't

And now you've transitioned arguments from critiquing the "character" of God as a being.....to the validity of the Bible....

Pick an argument and defend it properly....otherwise you're no more logical or sane than the "Christians" you rally against

The point in learning.... is to either read or experienece and then obtain a fuller understanding before drawing conclusions .....

Your statement that you have no "use" for the Bible ......(that you haven't read)...makes your arguments and opinions ....deeply flawed and unsubstantiated

And to your statement about things being "all in your head"...um....do you understand how individual reality is "perceived" and then becomes a "shared reality"?

What are your legit issues?

because if the bible is true, every single other religious text is not true

Scratch that, he says he believes the bible verbatim . These people are fukking morons breh. The arrogance is what often gets me. Like they are so proud to be dumb as fukk.

So my sister is an atheist. And my aunt can't stand that shiit. I bring it up to her all the time just to see her get pissed and get a good laugh

But anyway my sister was recently in a bad accident. Her car was totaled and it looked like it was dropped from a 1000 story building. But lucky all she had was a fractured bone in her arm.

So my aunt of course saw this as an opportunity to "convert"

Aunt: "Now you can't tell me God doesn't exist. He saved you"

Sister: "No. I saved myself by swerving at the last minute."

Bruh my aunt just started crying


So Christians I ask you, how do y'all react when your "See, God does exist" moments don't work?

Best way to get people to see the light is to be a good honest godly person. Or when you realize you only made it because someone else was praying for you.

Half of New Testament forged, Bible scholar says

Bart Erhman's claims have been discredited.

He is an excellent scholar but made many grasping assumptions concerning the validity of the New Testament. I own two of his books by the way.

An overwhelmingly majority of secular New Testament scholars do not agree with him.

I keep telling you nykkas Textual Criticism, Textual Criticism, Textual Criticism.

1. Did Noah live to be 900 years old, possibly; for sure, I don't know.

2. Yes, I believe God sent a death angel to kill the first born of every Egyptian because Pharoah believed he was God and did not heed the warnings of God's plagues that he sent so that Pharaoh would let the Hebrew/Israelites go.

3. I do not consider miracles to be magic tricks. When a magic trick is done I can later see what the magician did to conjure his allusion. Miracles have no allusions, hence why they are often called Phenomena.

The short answer is yes

Yea, that god is evil then.

 

[Hungry Rabbit]

I DON'T HAVE "SEE, GOD EXISTS" MOMENTS. IT AIN'T MY JOB TO TRY TO SHOW GOD TO YOU. IF YOU LIVE RIGHT PEOPLE WILL SEE THE GOD IN YOU.

Brilliant post, breh - especially the part where your profile pic avatar is a bear sticking a candy bar in his mouth to demonstrate his dikk suckin skills

Overwhelming evidence for the historical reliability of the New Testament. The Dead Sea Scroll. Go check out a museum sometime. It will do you some educational good.

Burden of proof lies with you. Not me.

Is this the museum that you speak of?

because if the bible is true, every single other religious text is not true

Yet the Torah....is ......the first half of the Bible???

The Bible never said there weren't other gods (it in fact acknowledges their existence...but is clear they shouldn't be worshipped by Christians) the Bible in full is actually a history book, collection of stories, observations, prophecies and instructions from God for Christian (meaning those who accept Jesus as the son of God) living.

If you find "truth" in another text? Or overlapping text? Or unrelated text? Great! Just don't confuse those texts as a representation of Jesus or....what he represents. Doesn't make either text less true. ...

I'm not sure you've done the research to have this type of convo breh you spit common athiest rhetoric that appeals to a superficial sense of "logic"

But imagine explaining earth and humanity to an alien. ...and then writing it all down. Like we have these eyes that "see" things upside down and flips them and within a certain spectral realm of these things called "colors". When they close for rest. ..they "see" things that don't exist when awake. ..we call those "dreams" We are alive for approx. 80 spins of our home around a star. We have penis and vagina and they touch and create more of us. ...

...anything can sound ridiculous ....but you KNOW being a human is exactly what you laid it out to be. ...
