To the atheist,if there is no God there is no evil,everything is subjective,so Hitler felt he was doing a good thing and at that time killing Jews was encouraged in Germany.So an Atheist could not say going to war then was justified.This was the argument the Nazi leaders tried to use,but the prosecutors said there was a law higher than man's law,God's law and this is what got them executed.Today an atheist prosecutor would not have been able to convict them of any wrong doing,he'd have to agree.
@Strefansha or you can trade the short earthly happiness for eternal happiness. My family and friends taught me that. I learmed that trading with the store clerk (god) will have drawbacks. But trading with him allows for eternal happiness. It may not be now, but it will in about 80 years. Think about it. 80 yr.s > or < infinite. 80 yrs < infinite. *0 years of happines is s*** compared to infinite happiness.
whewn most chrisytians have vicious things spoken about them it is because they really are devil and disgusting.
if he is not worn out in his struggle against his own sin he has not seen its futility. does he promise righteousness joy and peacee, or is life a protestant purgatory until we die?
this guy loves the Law, for all the good it does him, for all the good is does anyone
@Strefanasha im not sure what your trying to say so im going to assume that you are trying to say that christians suck. first off il say this, yes christians are preached prosperity and suffering. secondly, our suffering in THIS LIFE is going to happen. what you dont understand is that thirdly, we must suffer to gain entrance and happiness in our NEXT LIFE. imagine you are in a store and you have a choice. you can either walk away from the store selling eternal peace, or (cont.)
Ok... yes... we do go through suffering as Christians. But the point is not suffering being the end all be all in the equation. The POINT is that JESUS CHRIST DEFEATED death and sin and EVIL, & though we as Christians stand tests & trails & harships, we are not overcome, nor do we lose our Hope!!! Death cannot defeat us! Evil cannot triumph over us! Suffering? We will endure! We have a Savior that CRUSHED the sting of death! Oh death, where is your victory?Jesus gives us courage in any storm!
As a Word of Faith believer. I believe what Piper is saying in this video, about Matthew 10:25. I believe the truth about God (God wants me healthy, wealthy and happy) as did Jesus of Nazareth, and now since I believe and am open about my beliefs, people like John Piper himself and his followers malign me and my beliefs. Calling me beelzebul just for believing that God has a GOOD plan for me and not a plan of EVIL, to prosper me and give me an expected end.
And also, Since when has the Baptist Church been persecuted?? If you (Baptists) are believing in the TRUTH and Jesus said in Matthew that you will be maligned like him, shouldn't there be a bigger agenda to get rid your church like there is to get rid of mine? Nobody cares about what you believe, they let you alone and carry on your traditions with no quarrel, why because you are not a threat to the devil. Food for thought.
But Rick Warren said that God smiles on me when I do what I want to do and find my purpose. And Joel Osteen said my best life is now. And Rob Bell said that...uh....actually I don't know what he says cuz "Velvet Elvis" sucks
Of course the humanistic, heathen deity of the Jesus-Cults is a fusion of Orwell's 'Big Brother', Josef Fritzl and the Maquis DeSade - "he gets his rocks off on the everlasting pain and torment of ALL his 'children' forever and ever Amen"
That's the 'love', 'faith and 'hope' that's been afflicted on us for two thousand years.
Get to kno God for yourself and youll see the truth. Rite now your decieved by satan. Ask God to reveal himself to you and He will. And you say there's no Hell. Well if you stay the way you are you will see the truth. You gonna see Hell for yourself if you don't get rite. Your only hope is Jesus!
You are SOOOOOO stupid and blind. I feel so sorry for you. Jesus is the english translation. It's the same thing. And it's not a cult. We have God and we have TRUTH. Seek TRUTH and YOU WILL FIND IT! Your probably scared to seek TRUTH tho.
I wanted to apologize about the stupid and blind comment. That wasn't very Christ-Like. But seriously tho, Christianity isn't a cult. Jesus is actually real and He is VERY powerful. He loves you and He can change you. If you surrender your life to Him you'll see. Be blessed. And before you talk down on Jesus, First give Him a chance and test Him for yourself. You'll see He's real. I promise He won't let you down. Just surrender and you'll see.
@MzHellinahandbasket: Usually, only atheists ask that question. Which is offensive because they have no objective foundation for saying that ripping open pregnant women is evil.
If their was no hell, then God is a liar, and if God is a liar, everything in the Bible is written by man uninspired by the holy spirit. That's the most illogical absurdity I have ever heard. Try reading your Bible, you may realize their is a divine hand behind it pretty quick. Throw out all bias in science. Seek the truth for once.

The Christian deity (if it exists) IS a liar; his 'one-begotten son (cult-leader)' said he "came to free, not enslave" to "save not condemn" well centuries of slavery and condemnation by the 'virgin bride (filthy whore) of Christ' would seem to prove otherwise.
It is vital that we meditate on God's words concerning what following Jesus will cost us. Thank you Pastor John for reminding us what WILL come as a result of being genuine disciples of Christ. Your messages are always God glorifying and Christ exalting!
