Believe in Jesus Christ

[kingrexreyJr]

Do you really believe that not being a christian and not believing in Jesus will send you to hell. No religion is any better than any better than another. For instance a good Hindu man who has heard of Jesus and Christianity but had very religious devoted parents who arranged a marriage to a Hindu woman... What all loving god would punish someone for that? If you were born into another religion and parents you would not think that Christianity is the true religion... just saying

[EvangeMani]

@kingrexreyJr The focus a believer in Christ is Christ Jesus, not religion. Some christians sadly dont want to understand or just dont know. The reason why I dont agree with you is because out of all these religions, none of them had God, the living God, die for sinners that they might have salvation from their wretched.

[EvangeMani]

@kingrexreyJr I'm saying this because whether you believe what I was sent to tell you r not. You will understand as well has other that Christ was and is God and wants us to change and be with him and his Glory.

[SMuffTlk]

If you truly Believe in Jesus Christ. You wouldnt Believe in money.

[theskateguy16]

i am never going to belive in that!!

[91mattzilla]

such as horus look him up there so much simularites between him an jesus its insane also other gods and there sons man were crucified and lived without sin and healed the sick and raised the dead and resurected and most of them were the son of there sun god so yeah nothing new there also ALL RELIGOUNS NOW ARE USLESS except buddism they have no god and are actually peacefull and keep there word saying there man of peace but yeah as proof christianity is right theres none

[91mattzilla]

ALSO THERES NO PROOF JESUS EXISTED!! sorry but had to be said the books of jesus were written 40 years after the fact also the other books wich are just as valid even said themselves jesus was not the son of god even sinned( i know in the bible is says he was a man without sin) the bible as u know it is not complete there were much more to the new testemant that also had diffrent views on the man also the idea of jesus has been around for thousand of years of being the earth man of the sun god

[91mattzilla]

see morality isnt religios based its an instinct not to kill or steal because if u look even at chimps they try not to kill but when they do its mostly over a mate but most of them function in theire little societies so yeah morality isnt religous based how ever religion made it more pesised with the three no killing no stealing and no rape u know no adultry so yeah u dont have to be religous to be moral im a nice man i help when i can and i dont kill or rape religoun now does nothing for peopl

[91mattzilla]

conduct societies that werent died and otheres who were survived its evolution but no bio evolution its evolution of a primitive instinct of how we conduct ourselves but now we are where we are we dont kill steal and rape etc but thousands of years is was condiered moral to have a minor as a wife and multiple wives thats not the case now because those societies dont exist much no more (not saying they dont at all) so the majority believe that we dont have sex with minors

[91mattzilla]

thx also i gotta say morality is not a religious thing its evolution not on an organic level although it does have some basis there ill talk about that some other time but morality is evolution in wich we conduct ourselves first we are primates primates have there own way of conducting kinda like a tribe well we adapted this method threw our own ways because we to are primates but our way of conducting our selves evolved like we know killing for a mate is wrong wich works better with moral

[91mattzilla]

advance our sciences and progress as humans instead of trying to make ourselves feel better by telling ourselves there is an after life and there is someone watching out for me and that im not responsible and trying to pray for something instead of working for it all the things we have as humans is still there love compassion fre thinking peace morality can be there without religion im 100 percent athiest and im a moral person i dont kill or murder or rape im just a nice guy chillin and kickin=]

[StrumstickJoe]

@91mattzilla Well said!

[91mattzilla]

its true i think religion was the best way people can explain things in their own primitive way its out imaginations on a global level itdid help back then but now its doing more trouble then good the progress of humans cant be unless religion is gone theres to many people who want to kill and die for their god and religion makes people feel better then others with no proof at all wich is just dumb so yeah i just hope that one day all this stuff will be behind us and we use our imaginations to

[91mattzilla]

someone would have wrote about someone at least pretending about being the king of the jews and sarting a new religoun out of jerusalem so yeah nothings around not a danm thing but all we got is the biblle these people were not even hostrians they could have been bored for all we know

[91mattzilla]

so yeah they are jsut stories animals dont talk we need more then one man and woman to create a species people cant live till there 300s so yeah for the bibles part there is no proff its valid there are temples and such based on it but theres no proff its rigth jesus himself was a rip off from older religions paganism hindu egyptions more like that and also there is no historical record there were many of historians that were around when he was alive and when he died but no one wrote anything

[91mattzilla]

most theories arent even made into theories evolution may be a theory but its proof such as the theory of gravity the theroy of relitivity and more like that they are theories but there known as true (ohh btw im sorry im dyslexic so sorry again if my spelling is a bit off dont put that against me) but anyways the bible was written by people who mainly saw god by themselves and there just stories a man living inside of a fish for 3 days sounds like pinnocio when he was eaten by the whale

[91mattzilla]

it stops progress such as galileo and hurts people like gays lesbians non christians athiest other people that dont share your beliefe and then u pressure it on them i was a mormon then i was a catholic so i was actually born into christianity so im not dumb about that either to me the bibles is a book of impossible things that cant happen because they basicly defy reality but the theory of evolution is a theory but based on facts and evidence even to become a theory theres is a large process

[91mattzilla]

and im not some hatefull stupid ass athieest infact i read and watch alot of religios history not for faith or beliefe because to me its interesting the storys but to me i think there just stories we have tangible evidence we have fossiles we have facts and theories and proof to back it up im sorry but that bible just is not a valid piece of evidence if so then u can say any holy book is the right one and religion is dangerous its gives people power to control others to do to be saved

[91mattzilla]

then wh y do we share common DNA with chimps gorillas etc close DNA% and we even found species that have more closer dna sequence to our own im talking 99.999 really close thats not a matter of faith we can see that we can compare now a person who rose from the dead and floated into heaven (u may think im sounding sarastic im not trust me and if i do i apologize) anyways also a man living in a fish for 3 days thats not only a like but impossible

[91mattzilla]

ut like i said before in myother comments sorry if i come off as mean or douchy i dont mean to be trust me and i appreciate the same

[91mattzilla]

because it now of days effects our species in a bad way many athiesst live good moral lives but now religios extremist are happening and religion also trys to stop the progress of science and other things like that and they discriminate alot like hating on gays and other religions its an endless battle that needs to stop so religion is no longer needed and some places is dangerous

[tannerstell]

@91mattzilla That's absurd saying it's dangerous and no we didn't evolve from chimps I get where your coming from saying christianity is hard to believe but come on evolving from apes really really though.

[StrumstickJoe]

@tannerstell type in "Zomgitscriss umbrella" I'm only posting this so others can pick it up - I actually think you are a waste of effort.

If you could reason with the religious - there would be no religion.

(Incidentally we didn't evolve from apes - nobody ever said we did)

(And you said "Darwin is just a man who wanted to figure how the earth was created " - where did that come from? It's nonsense. )

[tannerstell]

@StrumstickJoe haha funny video and well see that's just the rain the rain won't hurt you, but the devil can. think of us as being held in god's hand in heaven and the rest, wide open with no protection. what would you rather? I could see why people are atheists and they just want peace and all but since god created us and jesus died for our sins maybe praising him and thanking him is worth the effort ;)

[StrumstickJoe]

@tannerstell You presume too many things for which you have no proof - only faith.

I refute your gods, and call you naive for believing in primitive explanations for the world which were the best they had at the time, but then were all found false.

J.Harris is a con-man, and a rich one at that. (A comparison with a camel through the eye of a needle comes to mind - but that's your rubbish story anyway). There are no gods, there was no Jesus, that's all folks, good night!

[tannerstell]

@StrumstickJoe atleast say there was a Jesus even con-artists believe that and look at the illuminanti today . dont you think that someone can help us atleast? In your presumption who created the world? dont tell me the big bang theory it's not true now where is your proof there is no god. He can see us but we can't see him ;) I have my proof because I experience him in warship he has spoken to me. and the things he told me are true. I was praying with my pastor about the calling god has for me

[tannerstell]

@StrumstickJoe and as I was praying I prayed that my pastor would talk to me about my friend who isnt christian. Sooner or later without a doubt my friend stopped praying for a second exactly after I prayed and he said god wanted me to tell you that your friend was once a follower of Jesus but now he doesnt come to church but you can help him from falling in the dirt and letting the devil bring him down into hell you have the power to bring him back to church

[StrumstickJoe]

@tannerstell I'm sorry, but I don't believe in JC. Even if there were proof of existence, and of his virgin birth and martyrdom, you would still have all your work to do to convince me that there was anything divine involved in all of it. I don't have a lot of faith in the big bang either, as it happens. The main thing is, I don't believe in the magical. The world is wondrous, the universe is amazing, but it is not miraculous and doesn't require a creator. Prayer only ever works by chance.

[tannerstell]

@StrumstickJoe First of all prayer only works by faith. Well I will be praying for you man. If you think about it if the world started 4.6 billion years or whatever at that point during the existence how did man come to existence. The theory of evolution may come to mind but think about it you will have more faith in evolution believing we evolved from cells compared to the faith in Jesus which seems a bit more believable. Jesus is wondrous just as the universe. All you have to do is except him.

[tannerstell]

@StrumstickJoe It is so easy to accept him. Strumstickjoe just accept him in your heart you will make miraculous a change in your life.

[StrumstickJoe]

@tannerstell 99% of all the life once on earth has become extinct, including most of the “Homo” species. Homo Sapiens nearly died out, there were only a few thousand left as they moved out of Africa. Now that species has continued to spawn variants; it’s part of a continuing process. At what point do you think a god stepped in and “created” man? And why did he wait 100,000 yrs after that to “save” us by the odd means of a human sacrifice? It’s nonsense!

[StrumstickJoe]

@tannerstell …make miraculous a change in your life… not required, thanks. I don’t want “saving”, and I would loathe your heaven.

I don’t think you have been truly hearing what I have said. Try “ZOMGitsCriss atheist umbrella” to see somebody who can say it better than I. And listen this time!

[tannerstell]

@StrumstickJoe All it is is someone having peace in the video and it leaves me nothing to think about. Its not a bad thing to be a peaceful person.but why not be peaceful at the same time and thank our god for what hes done

[StrumstickJoe]

@tannerstell …I don't thank god because there isn't one - and if there was such a thing as the christians and muslims would have us believe, why would he need all this praise and thanks? Is he so insecure? And why would he punish us?

I’m afraid the “punishments” – like the god, are human inventions to keep us in line.

[tannerstell]

@StrumstickJoe God punishes us because he loves us. He wants us to be good people not like the world. live in the world not of it

[StrumstickJoe]

@tannerstell I'm a peaceful person, (I hope that's clear), and that's why I don't like the religious beliefs of war and armageddon and hell and judgment - and I must tell you I believe that the human trait of "I'm right; you're wrong" - especially in a religious context, is responsible for almost all the problems that mankind has ever had…

[tannerstell]

@StrumstickJoe It's a good thing to be a peaceful person, but I can assure you this world will never be peaceful. It even says in the bible there will be wars and it all comes to an end when this world ends atleast for christians

[StrumstickJoe]

@tannerstell Even though you are probably right that this world will never be peaceful, I will always hope. Problem is, most of the conflict has its origin in religion, so let's get rid of that first.

Please read my posts again, there are signs that you are not doing that. Please look up ZOMGitsCriss - Cristina Rad, and Christopher Hitchens - try to understand them.

Why would you quote me what it says in the bible again - I don't believe it. Really!

[tannerstell]

@StrumstickJoe You have your opinion and I have mine, I understand you don't want to change and neither do I. I agree with the whole religion factor which does cause trouble ,but I wouldn't stereotype Christians as being a conflict in the origin in religion. Christianity is a relashionship not a religion first of all and the number one cause of atheism is people who claim they're christian. The majority of atheism is infact made up of those who claim they're christian which is a shame.

[StrumstickJoe]

@tannerstell I would want to change! If someone showed me I was basing my understanding of the world on false evidence - or no evidence! ! I would change in an instant; I love facts!

But I have no dogma. Religions have dogma. Their assertions are without evidence.

I say the world is what we can see and know, and have yet to discover - you say there "must be" an outside agency.

I'm having an op. today. I wonder when God's having his CTs done (he was created in my image, after all!)

[tannerstell]

@StrumstickJoe If you think about it the world couldn't have evolved from organisms to humans. with an intelligent mind or the hair on our head. See researchers constantly keep on collecting more theories and predictions and will continue researching, but the world will get worse. See now there isn't proof for religions (excluding christianity) and there isn't proof for how the universe was created. See christianity is based on blind faith . proof=faith. I have personally encountered god talking

[tannerstell]

@StrumstickJoe (con) to me and that is the holy spirit talking to me. God is of three parts he is the holy spirit, man(jesus), and he himself(god). There is proof to blind faith, Jesus said, "Ask and you shall receive, have not because you ask not, knock and the door shall be opened" I am convinced that God will reveal Himself to anyone who sincerely seeks Him. He will do so in His own way and on his own schedule, but He will open the door if we knock. pray on your knees and you will feel his

[tannerstell]

@StrumstickJoe presence. Do this for me if this doesn't work I will never bother you again. Since you don't care making a risk, do this.Get on your knees and pray tell him. "I am frustrated I don't know what to do.I need your guidance your the only one to look to god help me" I kid you not you will feel his presense. The devil is making you believe there is no god.Dont listen to that voice in your head that is telling you he doesnt exist. proof: explorefaith. org/proof html

[StrumstickJoe]

@tannerstell 3)…I don’t seek (need) your god – honestly; I say that with utter sincerity.

I would not kneel to a person who was trivial enough to want me to kneel.

(Why do you kneel and worship? It is ridiculous!!)

I don’t think you are right to imply that I wouldn’t take a risk. You don’t know me.

There is no devil, ergo I am not in his grip.

I will look at your web channel if you will type into Ytub “ZOMGitsCriss atheist umbrella” and look at that a coupla times.

[tannerstell]

@StrumstickJoe I don't want you to look at my web channel haha there's nothing that might appeal to you. ;) but I get where your coming from but I will never give up I will continue worshipping him. I just don't want you to feel guilty when you pass

[StrumstickJoe]

@tannerstell Is there something missing from this posting? I can't make sense of it...

Please don't worship anything - why would you do it? What does it achieve?

If an entity wants you to worship it, then it is a pathetic entity.

Guilt seems to be a christian problem. Don't go thru your life being guilty, it is a wasted emotion. Nobody should ever feel guilty. If you have wronged somebody, right it and move on cheerfully. Never rue.

Please look at my channel - I want the "hits". ;-)

[tannerstell]

@StrumstickJoe thanks him for thinking of us as a creation he made.It actually doesn't mention much of worshipping him and he doesn't ask of us to warship him.We choose to to thank him for what hes done.Life for me isn't guilty because when we ask for repentance of sin the guilt is gone so I don't feel guilt.And as to a "pathetic" "wasted" emotion,the emotions we experience will save us from HELL.The time on Earth of worship is worth it because when one is in hell they be wishing they worshipped

[StrumstickJoe]

@tannerstell 2)...“What does worship achieve?” Your answer: it’s a bribe to (an obviously very insecure) god to get you into heaven.

Well, I will not spend (waste) a lifetime worshiping to enter a place of utter hell where you spend eternity grovelling.

What a prospect you hold out for yourself!

Thank you for your time. I had hoped that you would see the light; perhaps some others who have read our exchange will have. I wish you a good life and eternity among the stars. Peace

[StrumstickJoe]

@tannerstell 1)... “Those who feel guilty are sinners” (?) Well I don’t and christians do!

“Everyone is a sinner” (?) well I’m not and you think you are!

“Life for me isn't guilty because when we ask for repentance of sin the guilt is gone so I don't feel guilt” (?) - Utter contradiction here.

Jesus never sinned because he never existed.

“Why would I worship God?” Study your answer – it fails to address the question…

[StrumstickJoe]

@tannerstell 2)…The holy trinity is a contrivance to solve an inconvenient story.

Jesus said nothing, he never existed. He is only wish-thinking to fulfill a prophecy and a need that the jewish people had (though they didn’t believe his divinity when you said he had arrived)

I refute his existence and say that even if you proved it (and the virgin birth, and the miriacles, and the resurrection) you would still not have proved his divinity…

[StrumstickJoe]

@tannerstell 1) Humans are organisms. Their brains have further to evolve, though.

Blind faith is just that.

There isn’t proof for religions.

You haven’t encountered god, only your own thoughts and imagination.

The gods in the bible are many…

[tannerstell]

@StrumstickJoe There are no gods in the bible but only one god and the other gods are the devils lure. And brains may be able to evolve in the sense that it gets smarter but it doesnt come to a point where it will evolve in a sense that changes occur. There are proof for religions read that link

[StrumstickJoe]

@tannerstell I did. Don't forget to view Cristina.

[StrumstickJoe]

@tannerstell By the way - I didn't say there are other gods in the bible to mislead anybody. They are there for you to find - and one of them (presumably yours) claims to be the "first among gods".

One, I know, is called "El", and is immortalised (no joke intended!) in the names "Bethel", "Michael" & "Israel" - (that is pronounced "Ale") - and the Eden story was not a creation story, it was an allegory about some dude being barred out of a temple... I could go on, there are so many deceptions.

[91mattzilla]

but thats what science does is change over time we have a fossile record with dating methods stretching millions of years back we know our ancestors were more ape like we see homo habilis who can walk up right with the brain size of a chimp thats how we started also not to confuse bc most christians say this were not decended from chimps we come from a common ancestor so anyways we have thousands of data on this but non on god and not to sound like a douche but we try to disprove religion

[91mattzilla]

well the thing is christianity isnt a theory it exist we see it churches the bible but GOD himself cant be proven and theres alot of things about it like everything that god said in the bible to earth is flat were in the center of the universe etc etc has been proven wrong also the idea of jesus has been around in dozens of cultures before jesus for exapmle horus but the theory of evolution for example i know u didnt say it but its a big one has proff to it its not a complete fact

[tannerstell]

This world is going downhill. There were the followers of Jesus, now look who we follow... it's a shame. Jesus is coming guys whether you believe or not...

[charvelgtrs]

Where is the evidence outside the bible???? All you religious people do is read from the bible like that is proof that your beliefs are right. To believe in something purely on faith is not rational.

[tannerstell]

@charvelgtrs Wrong actually. Not all things of proof come from the bible. We warship him and speak to him supernaturally and God himself gives us information we need. Blessed are those who believe and do not see to believe.

[StrumstickJoe]

Thank you very much, Joshua, for not wanting to offend me. That is very kind of you.

You did forget to mention in your little sermon-to-save-my-soul that if I don't believe in the weird story you are telling then you think that I will I burn in a fire till my eyeballs pop. All nonsense!

I'm not offended by you - but I think that organised religion is a dangerous lie.

[91mattzilla]

also ims orry just one more thing to add religion should be used as a fear tactic its just wrong also religion or any god shouldnt be able to define your importance the only one who can do that is you people are important bc we care about them as people and family and lovers so dont let god be your only reason to love urself and others jsut love your self and others because u want too

[91mattzilla]

but yeah for me science allways work and evolution not only of species but of thought has allways worked to that thought of caring for others has been around for a long time before jesus at least since neanderthal since hominids/apes/monkeys are very social animals we make rules for ourselves through instinct and that instict survies today the ppl who didnt kill each other survived better then the ones that did kill eachother so threw evolution got more spread out thats how we have morals

[tannerstell]

@91mattzilla Well people have to create a hypothesis before it becomes a theory, not every theory is true. Christianity isn't a theory it has proof.

[91mattzilla]

so the idea of jesus was way before jesus himself in another religion they jsut adapted it and used it like that also religion itself is wrong its an empire that brainwashes billions not just christianity muslims hindus and so fourth any thing that has to do with believing something thta cant be proven and makes u do things sensable ppl would not do like wars pay money and stop the proggression of man soo yeah religion in its self is evil

[91mattzilla]

honestly your a good man i may disagree with you but ur a kool dude you know unlike venomfangX sorry if ur a fan but hes a a douche and very condescending u know but anyways my point is jesus did not exsist there were many other gods and human gods like jesus like horus horus's mother was able to use the devone fire from the father to concieve horus so it was a virgin birth also kalled the savior and the lamb and walked on water and was baptized and many more alike but yeah there arealso more

[charvelgtrs]

Yeah, of course your religion is the "right" religion, because you fucking believe in it. It's called being biased. Though, you have no more proof that your religion is right compared to any other religion. They are all equally bullshit that isn't relevant in the 21st century. Evolve people, Evolve!!!!

[StrumstickJoe]

@charvelgtrs (4 weeks ago) Agreed!

[Martial024]

Quit turning already weak people into sheeple and slave you leech on society...

How about paying some fucking taxes while you make up whatever you want and feed it to these poor people! No, can't do that. God forbid the church actually contribute something instead of raping and plundering the peoples of that place.

Doesn't anyone find it strange that preachers can make up whatever bullshit they want and start their own church, making a living tax free. Its a fucking SCAM you retards! Jesus!

[samten54]

All religions are debunked with using the same arguments. You use them to debunk the religions YOU don’t believe.

[samten54]

Evolution is a proved and established fact. Because of that we know there was no Adam & Eve so no fall, no original sin and no need for god to send his only begotten son to save mankind. It's game, set and match for Christianity as much as you love it or feel it's true. Evolution wasn’t invented to disprove Christianity. Knowledge eventually destroys all superstitions.

[1234989ful]

@samten54 Evolution doesn't disprove Christianity. Evolution also does not 'prove' that there was no Adam and Eve. If there were fossils for transition species leading up to humans then that may be true. If evolution still occured and monkeys still became men, then that may be true. But the truth is, Adam and Eve haven't been disproved, the fall hasn't been disproved, it is only proved more and more as you read the headlines and look at this messed up world. This messed up world that needs Jesus

[samten54]

@1234989ful I am 30 times less likely to be murdered today than I would have been if I had lived 100 years ago. The news service with world wide and instant communication just gives an impression the world is messed up. It's easy to be pulled along with the crowd. That’s why people believe in religion. Not because they ever saw god.

[0WarXHawk0]

@EugeneHarris

1. I personally don't care about your faith it's your life not mine

2. Truth is a statement that is proved correct by means of action, demonstration or application.

3. "Life's Meaning" is what value we as individuals place on it, for you to assume I place no meaning on life because I am atheist is offensive (not to mention naive, idiotic, and typical of followers of organized faiths)

4. You asked a question and I am answering it. By the way that was 4 questions, not one. Idiot.

[doireallyneed1]

The question that leads me towards disbelief is this: If Christianity is the only true religion then what are the origins of all the other religions? Seemingly, God has revealed his nature differently according to geography.

[doireallyneed1]

What could be a more important message for humanity than God's Word and His Law. And yet he only gave it to a small group of men in a very small geographical area. In 2000 years it has spread, but not really all that far. about 1/3 of all people identify as Christian but that includes RC's, CoE and Liberal Evangelicals all of which I don't think you would count (please correct me if I'm wrong).

What I'm getting at is why are there not any Chinese gospels or Inuit or Peruvian etc.

(continued)

[doireallyneed1]

- - - (cont'd)

How many billions of people in the non-western world have lived and died without ever hearing the Good News. They have lived outside of The Covenant but not because they rejected Christ but because they did not have the opportunity to choose.

If God has a master plan for each and every person on the earth then was His plan for these people to live outside of His Love and to burn in hell for eternity?

[1234989ful]

@doireallyneed1 God has evidenced Himself in the world man! He is made PLAIN through nature, through your conscience, through the innate sense that this creation demands a Creator, that the creativity in US reveals a Creator who put it there, that we seek morality, love and justice because SOMEONE put it there. I have heard many stories of the Eastern world, of Christ revealing Himself to Muslims in dreams, etc. He is not bound by a book. He is the Risen Lord and every knee will bow before Him.

[doireallyneed1]

@1234989ful,

I can accept that many find the very fact of existence to be evidence of a Creator. What I dispute is the literalist view of the Bible. I gathered from your comment when you wrote "He is not bound by a book" that you are likely not a literalist. May I ask you to tell a little more about your point of view?

[1234989ful]

@doireallyneed1 It depends when you mean by a literalist? Nowhere in the Bible does it say that you can't be saved without a Bible. It is KNOWLEDGE of Christ. Which can be revealed in any way. In the book of Acts the Risen Lord appears to Saul of Tarsus and he is powerfully converted and becomes the Apostle Paul. It is a Biblical idea that God can and does reveal Himself to people without a book. But if it is truly Jesus, it will not contradict anything revealed in Scripture.

[tannerstell]

@doireallyneed1 Yes he is

[doireallyneed1]

@tannerstell,

Then what happens to those who have never heard the Good News?

[tannerstell]

@doireallyneed1 That is for god to judge. I don't know they didn't confess from the lips of their mouth who their god is and who they beleived in. Trust me man you don't want to go to hell watch this video seriously this will explain it watch 23 minutes in hell. This man is now Christian now because of experiencing hell. God had never let him know what hell was until he let him experience it. Now listen if your thinking there's no way out of hell it's true but god showed him what hell was like

[doireallyneed1]

@tannerstell,

I don't understand why the dividing line between those who are saved and those who are not seems to be primarily geographic. What I mean is that where you are born is the primary factor in determining what you believe. Why is God's message for mankind seemingly not delivered to all of mankind equally?

[tannerstell]

@doireallyneed1 so he could tell others to take the narrow road heaven not the wide open hell

[tannerstell]

@1234989ful Tru true but we still must stay faithful in sustaining his word

[heckfricker]

"Only faith in Jesus Christ, the Son of God can save a person." - From what? Please elaborate. Who would believe all spiritual paths would be equal? Never thought of Christianity as very spiritual. I think the Buddhists got you beat there dude!

[eminescinescu]

"God doesn't care how your life is, or if you are a good and moral person, he cares if you believe in him....." that is a hypocritical statement, you can murder, and rape, and have a death bad, and you are safe in heaven, and if you are good,moral, rational person, and you die and don't repentant, you deserve to be tortured for ever..... YOUR GOD IS IMMORAL, EVIL AND HYPOCRITE... stop believe in such sick and evil ideology, and start to think for your self...

[LordBLB]

*sigh* This stuff holds NO water. When are you Xtians going to realize that book does nothing for the more enlightened mind.

And here's a kicker that even YOU can't deny.

If there IS a 'God', and it just so happens to be the 'God' of the Bible (and not one of the THOUSANDS of other Gods). And He would judge me for not blindly believing in an Iron Age story book filled with fables. Then that's NOT 'God'. That's a TYRANT. And I'll close my eyes knowing that I was a GOOD man.

[Bzeiset]

@LordBLB Even you know that deep inside there is one True GOD! You may try to deny it but you still know HE exists! And the Bible is the truest book of truth there is! You can see things happening today that were prophesied many years ago! If you do your research and dig in the dirt of this earth you will find evidence of the flood that GOD created to destroy evil men! I'll be praying for you!

Christ is my LORD! I am proud to be a CHRISTian!

[LordBLB]

@Bzeiset "Even you know there is one true GOD!"

Um... No. I can honestly say I don't. Sorry. You're going to have to point out this Invisible Sky Daddy you guys keep talking about. Otherwise you're just talking out of your ass. Fairy Tales for adults, and it's sad...

"Christ is my LORD!"

Fine. You can do anything you like, so long as you don't do with my tax money, or on my property, or on public property.

"I'll be praying for you!"

Please don't waste your time. It's silly... really...

[Bzeiset]

@LordBLB Christianity is not a blind faith. It is the only religion that can prove itself, and a main source of that proof is the Bible. In the last 100 years (and especially in the last ten) scientists discovered many proofs that confirm the Bible’s accuracy. Since these proofs support the accuracy of the text we can understand scientifically, it makes sense to trust the Bible.

[Martial024]

@Bzeiset The bible claims you can reach god by building a large tower, the Bible claims that you can live in a whales stomach, the Bible claims that the Sun revolves around the Earth, the Bible claims that there is a location on this Earth from which you can stand and see the four corners of the Earth, meaning the Bible says that the Earth is FLAT..

Tell me how many scientists support the Flat Earth Society... Honestly....

Do you think that man and dinosaur walked the Earth together? Cmon..

[tannerstell]

@Martial024 all of those things are true funny to believe but remember God can do anything. Especially if he created us

[tamething1]

@Martial024 The Bible does NOT claim "you can reach god by building a large tower." Nor does God. In fact, God hated the notion. This ridiculous tower was the idea of Babylonian King Nimrod, inspired by Satan.

See "Know Your Enemy" by the Fuel Project, Part 6, here on You Tube.

[StrumstickJoe]

@Bzeiset ….It’s nonsense – it’s primitive, superstitious, fanciful ramblings, Nobody who wrote that stuff knew what bacteria was, or cancer, or parasitic bugs. Those beliefs were probably the best explanation they had at the time – now let’s move on. OK? Peace be with you.

[StrumstickJoe]

@Bzeiset You said, “Christianity is not a blind faith. It is the only religion that can prove itself, and a main source of that proof is the Bible.”

There can not be a more obviously holed argument than that! You have to believe in the bible to believe in the bible…

[tannerstell]

@LordBLB It's honestly funny how you say that we say christ is my lord which he is. And were not talking out of our ass people need to just get their head out of their ass and understand who god is

[LordBLB]

@tannerstell "christ is my lord"

Translation: Here's my invisible friend. No one can see him. But if you try really hard, you can pretend he's talking to YOU TOO!!!

LoL! Get fuckin real... Grow up...

[tannerstell]

@LordBLB therer is no need to say to grow up. if anyone needs to grow up it's you. profanity isnt going to achieve anything. and I have a life thank you whats yours like. Without a god huh? thought so. next time why dont you think of something before you post it or else youll make an ass of yourself ;)

[tamething1]

@LordBLB Oxygen is another invisible friend, equally impossible to live without.

[LordBLB]

@tamething1 "Oxygen is another invisible friend"

Science Fail...

We can 'see' oxygen in its solid form. We can weigh it as well. Oxygen can be measured with instruments. Pretty much everything we can do to prove something is real, we can do with Oxygen. As well as everything else that exists. Try again...

[tamething1]

@LordBLB Come on. You know exactly what I meant. Do you walk around all day saying, "OMG! I can't see anything in front of me for all this oxygen blocking my view!" Nor can you see love. Nor can you see Egypt from where you're standing. But they all exist, nonetheless.

[LordBLB]

@tamething1 "what I meant."

But you know what? We can prove oxygen exists, can't we?

"Egypt"

I can actually, PHYSICALLY go there! It's not fantasy land. It's a real place.

You fail. Can you see the invisible pink unicorn sitting beside you? No? So you'd probably call me crazy if I told you it were true then, right? Right... Same shit different name bud. Prove it first, and then sit there and tell it's real. Until then, you're believing in fairy tales and sugar plums. Simple as that.

[avendar17]

umm if he died for my sin's then who cares about what i do or believe???????????............­....and if all ways are wrong but urs then what about the man god sent down his word to b4 christ???????????

[danloani]

ALL people (including this terd Joshua harris) need to stop pretending to know the answers! No one knows

[booksandvideos]

Well, this man speaks from the Bible. Speaking against the Bible, which is scripture inspired by God is a whole different thing than speaking against a mere man.

[danloani]

Why would the word of God (an all powerful and knowing being) need to be interpreted by this guy? How dare he presume to "know" the word of God for all. If and when God speaks to us, God will speak directly to our mind. God does not need this guy (in his designer shirt and fancy watch) to deliver the message. I am tired of people like this cashing in on God and Jesus.

[booksandvideos]

Are you sugegsting that the Word of God can be interpreted in different ways, having different meanings?

[danloani]

I don't know. I only try to know God's meaning for me. The path is different for every person.

However.... I AM saying that God does NOT need Joshua Harris (or any one like him) to interpret his message for the rest of us. How dare Joshua Harris (and everyone like him) to presume that they are the ones to "interpret" Gods message.

[danloani]

I think that God does NOT need anyone to speak on his/her behalf. I also think that God does not need anything that has been created by humans (this includes churches and any and all kinds of religious objects....and even religion itself).

[booksandvideos]

So, it sounds like from your point of view that you do not believe in the God of the Bible? Sure, God doesn't NEED anything or anyone, but that doesn't stop him from choosing to use people to accomplish his will.

[danloani]

I believe in God. However, I don't think Joshua Harris or any of the people like him are chosen by God. I think they are charismatic speakers who "chose" themselves in order to make money selling the words of God and Jesus. Do you mean to tell me that Ted Haggard or the many catholic priests that have abused children were chosen by God? I doubt God would ever chose scum like that. The message is there. I'm saying that we don't need all these religious people to have a relationship with God.

[booksandvideos]

Well, I don't know if this guy is making money from this. I know there are false preachers, a lot of them. Those that are worth listening to are the ones that square up with the Bible and are passionate for the gospel. I know how awful all those TV evangelists are, because they scam those who are gullible. Do you listen to any preachers at all?

[danloani]

I would like to, but I haven't found the right one yet. Any reccomendations? I'll keep looking. As a kid and teen, I was raised Roman Catholic. Does it show? Clearly, that doesn't work for me. That tradition has always been about fear, power and money...and has left me somewhat cold. As I said, I'll keep searching. Thank you for your help.

[booksandvideos]

If I could recommend anyone, perhaps John Piper. He's not Catholic, but he sure isn't out for anyone's money. He's an honest man, passionate about the Word of God.

[Tomekwinxs]

I struggle with people going to hell for eternity.How a God can allow such a thing to happen makes me sad inside.

[booksandvideos]

I have struggled with this thought as well. However, the fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom. Seek to understand the holiness of God and you will see the disease of sin that inhabits the heart of every man. Because God is just, he must purge sin from the earth and punish the sinner for eternity because sin decalres war on the eternal God. Imagine the horror of an unjust God. Praise him that he has provided Jesus Christ to take upon himself our sins, so no man must suffer the wrath of God

[love187punk]

the almighty god created adam without a father or a mother, and the creation of eve is a mother, is it any wonder that creates Isa without a father.

the name (the word of God) meaning that the creation of the order of god almighty, saying, be was.

And name it (the spirit of it) where the meaning is clear, it is the spirit of life created by allah just the rest of human

[love187punk]

jesus is not a god, get over it

[Riqon]

@love187punk Yes he is, get over it :)

[love187punk]

LOL !

[KierenMan]

Everyone is going to hell except your specific brand of early 21st century Protestant Christianity.

[ProgramG]

Thor is the one true god, burn in hell non-believers.

satire but you see my point

[1BustedMyth]

Oh yes! my religion is completly right and the other 799 are wrong, except if you are a member of one.

i command you in the name of Darwin to wake up and accept reality

[ReasonDefender]

It would appear that many of the faithful Christians assume that "who is going to save you from your sins?" is some universally accepted fundamental question about one's life. This question is something that is solely predicated on Judeo-Christian tradition, and depends on the assumptions made by the Judeo-Christian tradition.

A much better and broader question that we could start with is "What does it mean to know?" and "what do we think we know, and how do we know it?"

[skyzthelimi7]

La la la la...and the christian shit just goes on and on... in such a sweet sincere voice, " I just wanna speak very..." bla bla bla, like you're the first asshole to get into the selling lies business. You thief, common ignorant and vulgar. Get a life buddy.

[paradigm71]

A relationship with an imaginary being? Hmmm. If it wasn't religion, we would call that delusional.

[svix123]

It is time for people to take responsibility for themselves and to change the world to make it a better place.

Retreating to the warm illusion of religion is blatant weakness.

Heed my words, those that delude themselves into false salvation have not helped anyone or anything.

[MichaelaLeach]

AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jesus is my best friend!!!!!! That is what other people cant see!! being a christian is not all about going ot church, or reading your bible, or being a "good christian" (but these help!) Being a christian is a relationship! A relationship with jesus! No matter how bad you screw something up he always loves you, and I can always feel how much he loves me it insane!! I want people to feel how I feel!! To be this loved is something everyone should feel! Its about love!!!!!!

[ReasonDefender]

How would an outside observer distinguish between an actual entity that you have a relationship with versus a invented sense of camaraderie with an individual who does not exist outside of your mind?

This is an important question, especially if said entity actually exists, and is going to send me to an unpleasant place unless I forge a relationship this being.

It is also equally important, if I am to write you off as a irrational person of faith, or a schizophrenic, and pay no attention.

[nonthiestnc]

but which god is the right one ?

[ilikezappa]

nonthiestnc

Allow me to introduce you to Mbomba , the West African God of all creation , who puked up the sun when he was feeling poorly. I hope that the folklore from ancient times will enrich you with his holy love and save you from a life of mere rational enquiry .

We are all praying for you......

[nonthiestnc]

hello ilik: is this the true god ?

[ilikezappa]

Yes , noone gets into the kingdom of heaven except through Mbomba

(it says so in a book)

He created Iande and ilele , the first man and woman.

Give up your false Gods and save yourselves the ONLY way possible

[ethiogiirl]

amen

[sausage4mash]

oh I get it , your religion out of the thousands, is correct ,come with us all sins redeemable! and we provide anecdotal evidence from one of many versions of a 2000 yr old book written by a dozen sand Arabs ,great sign me up ;{

If you don not believe listen to this guys passion is that not evidence ?

[tannerstell]

verry good preaching man u can save someones life by talking like that i know jesus is real u better believe it jesus is the man of god he will save your life and he already has by dying on the cross for all your sins he is the son of god and im only 14 its a shame that others dont know who jesus is and i do just buy a bible and talk to god

[StrumstickJoe]

@tannerstell Now that you're fifteen have you discovered the fallacies in your blind beliefs? Hope so.

[tannerstell]

StrumstickJoe It's funny how peopel these days just can't seem to learn actually 16 btw just turned it last month. But see This isn't false Jesus is the son of god I have experienced him . Who do you believe in atheist right? I assume. Such a good message from this man yet you dont get anything out of it? Listen to his words!!Not to doubt you,but have you ever thought of how the world was created or what the afterlife will be if you dont change quick youll be standing outside the gates of heaven

[StrumstickJoe]

@tannerstell … no message for me today. Your picture of heaven would be absolute hell to me. I will be glad to - though there is no choice in this - rejoin the stars that we all came from. The universe is wonderful but not magical. The world wasn’t created, it evolved, and continues to do so. Natural, not supernatural. Peace be with you.

[tannerstell]

@StrumstickJoe haha you'll get a message. I think your trying to disprove people away from believing. If your talking about evolution thats such nonsense. Darwin is just a man who wanted to figure how the earth was created but did he think of who created him. We didn't evolve from apes. God created us and not man to prove how we were created.

[StrumstickJoe]

@tannerstell I can't listen to his words. He is a compilation of many preachers that existed from prehistoric times to the bronze age. The words that have been handed down are the words of superstitious people who knew nothing of the world and tectonics and climate and electricity. They carry no message for me today...

[tannerstell]

He's not talking about science he's talking about getting your life straight with Jesus! not tectonics and electricity.Look what the bible says though about earthquakes in mind It says that when the end is near plagues, quakes, and disasters will strike.Look how the world has changed look what our generation has become!Look another quake again today actually did you know when I clicked on my brower another quake striked in Japan.

[EugeneHarris]

Moderate and Sensible,

Obviously, we completely disagree about Jesus. But I appreciate you stopping by and watching the video. Here's a question I'd love to have you answer. Why does a person like you who doesn't believe in God or an eternal state care so much about disproving religion? Where do you find a basis for any sort of truth? Why do you care about anything since you think life is random and without any real meaning? Why bother leaving a comment on a YouTube video? I'm genuinely curious.

[nonthiestnc]

hello eugene: iam a nonthiest and its about asking you to prove theres a god, not proving theres isnt. you make the claim, not us. you have the burden of proof

[ModerateAndSensible]

Someday everyone will feel about Jesus the way we all now feel about Dyonisis, Apollo, Thor, Baal, Orion, Poseiden, Anubis, Zarathustra, Venus, Jupiter, ... and hundreds of thousands of other gods. At one time they were ALL believed in with just as much evidence for them as for Jesus.

Absolutely no difference.

There is zero evidence that there is anything like an eternal soul, so thre's no need to be "saved". You will be again as you were in the age of the dinosaurs. Non-existant.

[nonthiestnc]

well said moderate: which god should we believe in ? maybe the christian will sheep-herd themselves to church every sunday and live a life trying to find the right one. how sad

[finhou]

the best ever!!!! thank u for showing this

[sinmio2]

Amen brother!

You tell them!

[nick624179]

thank you
