Yes, Christian. And we are commanded to witness, Ethelred.

Thats OK just don't be so bloody defensive when I choose to say I disagree.

This isn't a street corner for preaching. Its a discusion forum. If you say something you should expect return fire. Especialy if you tell people they are going to Hell for not actually believing there is a Hell, a Heaven,or a Saviour.

I'll pray for you heathens on your Judgement Day!

Ethelred,

I have listened to your very opiniated stance on several issues, its ok for you to be "bullish" or "Staunch" on your beliefs,, that being said, I have also noticed many times whenever a CHRISTIAN stands up for their beliefs you dont care for it?

You seem to be somewhat of an eductaed individual, you seem to be intelligent. I applaud you for your efforts to defend your stance on "ANTI-CHRISTIANS"

Well, I will say this, when the day of reckoning comes, and you stand before GOD ALMIGHTY with HIS SONJESUS CHRIST seated at his right, if you still dont believe in HIM, whom died for your Sinfulness, you will be 18" from Heaven, thaat being the distance between head knowledge of whom God is and Heart knowledge and belief in JESUS CHRIST as you LORD and SAVIOR!

I pray you repent and seek he whom does love and care for you!

~Peace~

Like it was such a big secret, Zylka.
Kaak must be in his own private Hell; assuming he's still in Waco with all the Baptists.

When my "S.O." was in recovery at hospital, I kept saying, "Wake up. This is St. Peter. We're home".
The nurse came in behind me unnoticed, told me that wasn't very nice.

ee

As if you or anyone else knew, Chucky.

It's just that I'm more intelligent than anyone in this entire thread for noticing. I'm also a better person than you because my lawnmower has bits and pieces of my last girlfriend stuck on the blade.

It is better to witness your faith by doing the right thing than by telling people to believe in Jesus. It's somewhere it the Bible, where it talks about stuff. I'm Catholic, so I never really bothered reading the whole thing, but in there I'm pretty sure it says something like, "Let people know you're a Christian by acting like one, and not being an annoying ****."

I could be wrong, but it's the method I like and try to use.

[SlowwHand]

Well, if that's literally true, with no "grading on a curve", I'm going to burn, Felch.
Hopefully, The Man knows it was all done with good heart.

Thanks for breaking the formating.

With a fantasy at that.

Your personal opinion, as it were, is based on picking and choosing stories and narratives. I agree the Bible at times presents a picture of a capricious and vengeful god. It also presents the picture of a god who sides with the oppressed, the downtrodden, the widow, and the orphan; a god who does great miracles and wonders to deliver his people, revive the weak, sick, and dead, and comfort the hopeless. If one overwhelms or outweighs the other in your mind, so be it. But shouldn't you be fair and acknowledge that the picture of God in the Hebrew Bible and New Testament is more than you let on in this post?

My picking and choosing is no more so than what a lot of Christians do to present God in the light they see him as. Regardless, whatever the supposed goodness of God given in the Bible is, I don't think it outweighs the atrocities he commits/permits. The Nazis had some wonderful ideas with regards to curing cancer, ending smoking, etc. That doesn't excuse their evil acts.

I have no need to let on "more" of a picture, as history and the omnipresence of religion in this country does that without my help. I was just explaining why my personal view does not accept the image given to God in the Bible as being remotely true. Even the incidents of him working good are often capricious, so does that speak well for his stability?

There may be a God, but nothing human beings have come up with so far comes remotely close, I bet. Jehovah is just a reincarnation of Marduk. He's no more real than the tooth fairy or Santa Claus. The real God would be a far more amazing (and competent) being.
