Just sayin, but, It is fact that Jesus lived. Not only is He in the New Testament and prophesied to live (OT prophesy) but also is mentioned by ancient historians such as Josephus. Also, the eyewitness accounts by the disciples are completely credible.
GOD IS REAL!!my dad is a pastor and we are non-denominational so we believe lots.One thining we dont believe is that the earth was never made but has been here forever>NOT TRUE> and if you dont believe God is real than you will be sorry!!!
@Fishqueen1972, are you sure? (I'm a Christian) I believe god created us. And here's a very simple "non-bible" reference. Ever see how our eyes, ears, mouth's, arms, legs, etc are all in the perfect position? For me, there is no coincidence.
People stop fighting back and forht, you're never going to agree, so just agree to disagree and celebrate the awesomeness of kris Allen covering this awesome song!
@BarrelsPolesandJack I support humanistic ideals. To me, religion in general is sectarian. I prefer more of a universal ideology. I value evidence based beliefs systems. Although I do agree with some Christian teachings, but some of the teachings I consider immoral. That is basically it. I am firm believer in freedom though so I would never advocate making religion illegal, but when it crosses the line through enforcing Christian ideas through law> i am against that.
@Fishqueen1972 That doesn't really answer my question. I'm a Christian, and what I love most about it is the fact that I have a Father who loves me and has given me the privilege of spending time with Him. What is it about Christianity that you don't like? I know God, and I know His Word, and nothing about Him is immoral, so I'm afraid I don't understand what you mean. Care to enlighten me?
@BarrelsPolesandJack 1) Well first off, I don't believe it is true. I believe all religion is manmade. I adore Kris Allen whether he is Christian or not. If I were to go into what I think is immoral & moral about the teachings of your religion then I would just offend you. The fact that you enjoy the comfort you get from it is probably one positive thing about religion in general. I wish that was enough. Perhaps it is for most people.....cont.
@BarrelsPolesandJack 2) cont..But for many who claim that religious belief makes them happy, they dont seem to be happy unless everyone else believes it to. This poses a problem for the human race when it comes to peace & getting along with your neighbor. So I can understand why this "Father" image who loves you can be comforting & that isn't what i don't like about religion. It some of the other aspects of it. It serves no purpose for me to explain to you what teachings I disagree with.
@Fishqueen1972 I don't know what god you're talking about, but my God is not like that at all. He is loving, kind, patient, understanding, and ESPECIALLY forgiving. That's why He sent Christ to die on the cross for us. Think about it. He loved us (both me AND you) so much that He sent His OWN Son to die as a perfect sacrifice, JUST for us! If that doesn't say love, then nothing does.
@BarrelsPolesandJack I am talking about Moses' wargod Yahwah described in the OT. They changed the character from God to a general & asked kids if his actions were right or wrong. Overwhelming the answers were not in favor of this character being moral. Sorry, but if GOd is God he can forgive without a sacrifice. He is God for goodness sake. Besides, from a logical standpoint, if Jesus didn't really die then it really wasn't a sacrifice at all. The story just doesn't map with reality.
@Fishqueen1972 I think it does. God's Word can relate to the way reality is now. Don't believe me? Read the book of Isaiah. I was only a few verses into it before thinking, "hey, this sounds exactly like the world is now." God is unchanging, and the Bible shows that.
@BarrelsPolesandJack Sorry. But I don't have to sacrifice my son in order to forgive someone. Also, we don't punish people for an infinity for finite crimes. Secondly, most Christians I know cherry pick the Bible and there is no concensus. Whatever you read into it is your subjective interpretation. What someone else may get out of it is their interpretation. The Bible is ambiguous & vague. There is nothing in the Bible that couldn't have been written by the people of that era.
@Fishqueen1972 Yeah, but that's not our responsibility; it's God's, which is why He made us the way we are. And yes, people CAN read the same passage from the Bible and get a different interpretation, and then, they can read the same passage AGAIN and get something totally different out of it. That's why it's called the Living Word of God. Look; I'm not going to argue the Bible with you. There is nothing more satisfying than surrendering to God, and I wish you could experience it.
@BarrelsPolesandJack "There is nothing more satisfying than surrendering to God" Again, this is subjective. This is a matter of your opinion. Everyone is different and there is nothing about your belief system that is better than mine. It is just a matter of preference. I prefer evidence based belief systems that is based on logic. You will never find an atheist accusing someone of being a witch, the anti-christ, or accusing gays of bringing on the wrath of God.
@Fishqueen1972 But it's NOT just my opinion. There's millions of people out there who can testify to what I've just said. And the Bible CAN be proven. Just look through history. Heck, even look at what's happening now! Everything that's going on RIGHT THIS VERY MOMENT has been PREDICTED by people of the Bible, by GOD. We are in the last days of this earth, and the will of God WILL prevail. And true Christians don't judge in a self-righteous manner, just as Matthew 7 tells us not to.
@BarrelsPolesandJack Just because a majority of people believes something does make it true. Look at how many people believe the words of Mohammad. There have been thousands and thousands of manmade religions, but you "a mere human" claim to know the right one. Sorry, but I see a pattern. I say that the most likely scenario is that they are all manmade given the track record. The supposed prophecies in the Bible are vague that it would eventually apply to anything...cont.
@BarrelsPolesandJack cont...we already know through science how delicate life and the planet is. Science has predicted the end of the world could happen at anytime & that it definitely will. Even if happened tomorrow, that would not in anyway prove your Bible was not manmade. There are no specific dates or facts in these so called prophecies. Jesus was supposed to come back 2 milleniums ago. A thousand years from now, are people still going to be waiting for Jesus to return?
@Fishqueen1972 Out of all the religions in the world, there's not one shred of proof that God was man-made. I don't know much about other religions, but I *CAN* say that for certain. Science has been helpful in more ways than one, but they don't have the answer to everything, either. No one knows when Christ is coming back, and it's not our place to know. Yes, the Bible was written by men, but by men who were INSPIRED by God, and I think the Word's consistency speaks for itself.
@BarrelsPolesandJack You don't know if the Bible was inspired by God. You were not there to witness any of it. And even if you were, you don't have the capability to look into a person's mind to know where they get their thoughts. The Bible's consistency? Have you ever studied its origins or how many times it is has been translated? Or how many times things have been added? Do you know the true history? If you did, I don't think you make that statement. Why isn't there a gospel of Jesus?
@Fishqueen1972 True, but usually, the best way to know if something works or is the real deal is through HUMAN TESTIMONY. Do you buy a product without reading information on it first? It's the same deal with God, except He's not a product, and never has been; He is the LORD. What is the one thing that the Bible is consistent with? It's the hardships Christians like me have to go through because of unbelievers like you. Read it for yourself if you don't believe me. You can't prove it's not true.
@BarrelsPolesandJack "It's the hardships Christians like me have to go through because of unbelievers like you" What the heck are you talking about lady? What hardship? There are churches everywhere. The Constitution guarantees your freedom to believe & worship as you please. If you have a hardship b/c of unbelievers, then what do unbelievers have as a minority? You Christians have killed Jews, Muslims, scientists, and NON-BELIEVERS. So please, spare me your hardship.
@Fishqueen1972 I'm sorry. I didn't mean it like that, and to be honest, I shouldn't have said that at all. All I know is that I am VERY proud to be a Christian, because as long as I've got God, I have hope in times of crisis. My family just went through a very tragic loss, and I am glad that I have God, because without Him, I wouldn't be here. I can't imagine ANYONE going through loss without God to lean on for support.
@BarrelsPolesandJack I never said you should be ashamed of it. Like i said, I adore Kris Allen regardless if his belief system is different than mine. I am not so sure if most Christians would feel the same if he was an atheist. I don't think the term "proud" is appropriate in the context that you used it, but I understand how comforting it can be. That part of it can be a good thing. It is all the other arbitrary, but potentially harmful crap that I don't like about religion.
@Fishqueen1972 If he was an atheist, he wouldn't sing songs like this, but it wouldn't matter, because he'd still be loved by Christians anyway due to the fact that God loved us while we were yet still sinners. With all due respect, but Christianity is NOT a religion: it is a way of life, and I really wish you'd consider it, because you have nothing to lose and everything to gain. And I'm not talking about going to church. I'm talking about developing a close, personal relationship with Christ.
@BarrelsPolesandJack I have considered it already and looked into it. I can't make myself believe in something that my brain interprets as nonsense. Not even as a kid. I could never understand why people would claim fact & truth about things that are impossible to know. ANd I never fell for the Noahs ark story. And I always thought the Isaac & Abraham made this God character out to be psycho.
@Fishqueen1972 I know God exists because I have a personal relationship with Him. You can, too, and I guarantee that you'll find it both beneficial and sufficient.
@BarrelsPolesandJack I don't know what to say other than I can agree there are beneficial to it on a personal level, but again, I can't make myself believe in something without evidence. For me, God is an imaginery friend. i am not a kid. SEcondly, there are bad things about reliigon. I think 911 is self evident to that. Also, religion can lead to things like bans of gay marriage which is not fair nor civil in a free society. Banning gay marriage is harmful to people and children.
@Fishqueen1972 Just something to think about: if God doesn't exist, then why would COUNTLESS numbers of people die for Him? People won't die for something that they aren't sure is true.
@BarrelsPolesandJack First off, the majority of people who claim to believe in God fight for their life as if this is the only life they are going to get. Secondly, just because someone believes something to be true doesn't make it true. People have been willing to die for things besides God. And if they believe in an afterlife then they believe they aren't really dying, correct? This is not the kind of world/reality I would expect of omnipotent God.
@Fishqueen1972 Again, if God didn't exist, people wouldn't give up their life for Him on a daily basis. There are people dying RIGHT NOW for His sake. People AREN'T going to die for something that they're not sure is real. It's common sense.
@BarrelsPolesandJack First off, many people are KILLING right NOW FOR HIS SAKE. So does that mean that God wants people to kill? No offense, but you need to take some critical thinking classes. It doesn't matter how many people believed that the sun revolved around the earth. It doesn't matter how many people believed the earth was flat. Human beings can be wrong. Your point makes no sense, let alone common sense.
@Fishqueen1972 No, because the Bible doesn't condone murder. There is no one killing for God, and no proof of it, either. And I think what I'm saying makes PLENTY of sense. People just don't die for someone who they aren't 100% sure exists. They just don't.
@BarrelsPolesandJack If they believe God wants them to do it then they are killing for God. Do you not understand the concept of believing in something that isn't true? Do you not understand the idea that human beings can be wrong and not even know it? Human beings are limited and fallible. There is no evidence for god. I would not expect a world or Universe to be like it is if there was a good omnipotent God. I just wouldn't. You should check out the videos of youtuber called KNOWNNOMORE.
@BarrelsPolesandJack Here is my second response. I hate to tell you this, but many people believe in God that are not Christians. Christianity isn't the only representation of God believers. Fact, there have been thousands of religions in human history. Fact, your NT Bible has only been around 2,000 and humans have been around for at least 100,000 years.Besides, it does say in the Bible to stone your disobedient children. I consider that murder. Why does the Bible say that?
@Fishqueen1972 That was true until Jesus Christ's sacrifice on the cross eliminated the need for such actions. Nowadays, however, I think stoning your kid when they're disrespectful to you might actually make kids think twice about how they act, but I digress. True, there ARE other religions, but the one thing that they DON'T have is Jesus Christ, who is the only way to Heaven. Those who claim God told them to murder are not real Christians and believed a lie that Satan concocted. He does that—
@BarrelsPolesandJack Murder is murder. A BLOODY sacrifice doesn't change that. If a devil does exist, it is so obvious the Bible was inspired by it. Although the BIble has a FEW good concepts that a kindergartener could figure out, it is also filled with immoral barbaric filth.
@Fishqueen1972 —((cont.)), you know. Yes, humans are flawed, and each and every one of us are born into sin after what Adam & Eve did in the Garden of Eden. You say there is no evidence of God, and yet, in the Bible, it clearly depicts certain places that DO exist, to this day. How do you explain the places in Israel where Jesus was said to have been? ALL of the places that the Bible depicts? And what about the fact that they actually FOUND Noah's Ark?
@BarrelsPolesandJack If God created Adam & Eve and they sinned and he doesn't like it, then you don't make it so they can procreate only to create more sin. Is your God retarded? People don't create themselves, they are forced into existence. No one asked to born as descendents of Adam & Eve. The creator is responsible for his creation. If a scientist creates a monster, you don't blame the monster, you blame the scientist. This is simple logic.
@BarrelsPolesandJack Thirdly, all the places and people of Mohammad existed, does it make what Mohammad said true. If that is the case then Islam is true. The same logic applies to Joseph Smith and the mormon religion and so on and so on. Prove to me that Noah's Ark was found. You just can't say it. You have to provide evidence. Just because people and places existed in a book doesn't prove the accuracy of the events. You can believe want you want via faith, but proof isn't something you have.
@Fishqueen1972 My God is the only One who proves His love all throughout scripture. As for Noah's Ark, I saw the news report on it when I was younger. I can't remember which mountain they found it on, but I DO remember seeing it on TV. You can deny God all you want, but I am living proof that He exists. I have a personal relationship with Him, I know His Word, and the more I read it, the more I have come to know Him, and He is NOT as you say He is. There is NOTHING immoral about Him or His Word.
@BarrelsPolesandJack Again, I believe the Bible was manmade. Most of the stuff in the Bible is ignored in modern times so obviously it isn't moral.I am not insulting your God. I don't believe in God. I am criticizing man's description of him.They did an experiment with school children.They replaced the Lord of the Bible with a human general & asked if this general in the story was moral. The results were not flattering. Why is that if the Lord were human then people would consider him immoral?
@Fishqueen1972 And again, the Bible was written by men INSPIRED by God, who let His Spirit move through them back then. He can't do that in today's society (well, I mean, He can, but I think He's realized there's no point in it) because people would be deemed crazy and institutionalized. God is NOT human, and His ways are not our ways, nor are they for us to understand. God cannot be compared to anything because He is God, the LORD Almighty, the Absolute Authority of the universe.
@BarrelsPolesandJack So if God created the Universe just to create souls in order for him to torture these souls after bodily death then would you be ok with that? Seriously, if God is God and he enjoys torture then it is ok for him to do what he wants? And you said that "His ways are not our ways, nor are they for us to understand." Then what is the point of your religion? See, you can't come up with logical answers. You have to resort to non-sensical answers that actually refute yourself.
@Fishqueen1972 That's not how God is. I have already explained that to you. You just don't understand it, and you CAN'T understand it until you come to know Him personally. End of discussion. Have a nice life.
@BarrelsPolesandJack I understand the concept of GOODNESS. And I can imagine a perfect being. The version of God based on the OT & NT just doesn't cut it for me and I have given good reasons that you have not logically refuted. That being said. If you are happy with your subjective personal belief system then fine. I don't have a problem. I was just being honest. As long as people don't force it on me, then we can celebrate what we do have in common. HUmanistic ideals.
@Fishqueen1972 If you understand what true goodness is, then you understand God. That being said, faith is not logical. Heck, LIFE is not logical, so I don't know what you're looking for as far as "logic" goes. Just like beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so is logic. There is no need to refute something that I know is true with evidence that you can't (and don't want) to see.
@BarrelsPolesandJack Good is super. Good is natural. Good is just not supernatural. Sorry. Girl. I don't believe you have superhuman powers to have special knowledge of things you can't possibly have. You have not provided empirical evidence. And no, there are objective laws of logic such as the law of non-contradiction and law of self identity. OT God is god of war and God of peace as the Bible says. That violates the law of non-contradicition. It is logically impossible for that to be true.
@Fishqueen1972 And one more thing: ALL proof is man-made, because that's just the way humans are; so, in a way, nothing any of us says is neither viable nor plausible, becase we all see what we want to see. You can choose to see the Bible and my God as something not worth giving your life to. As for me, I'm going to stick with the only One who will NEVER let me down, is always there for me, and has a placed picked out just for me in His kingdom!
@BarrelsPolesandJack To respond to this, the scientific method actually resolves this issue. Gaining knowledge thru the scientific method works & it is willing to admit when it is wrong unlike religion. You don't see scientists meeting every Sunday holding eachother's hands to have faith that gravity will work. I wasn't trying to convert you away from your religion. It would be pointless. The human character is to self centered. Just look at your post. "ME" "ME" "ME". I can't compete with that.
@MyGodissweet Did I say science disproves God? Please reference where I said this and then I will respond. However, science does show that there is no need for a God to exist in order for us to exist. And if you are unwilling to accept that as fact, then you should at least admit the possibility.
@Fishqueen1972 ok, I've read some of your earlier comments and I'll explain. first, tell me how you believe this world was created. Tell me how Science shows we don't need a God.
@MyGodissweet I believe the Universe is expanding from a finite point (Big Bang). I believe the Universe evolved creating stars and the stars created new elements. That is how the planets formed etc. And that the natural laws of the Universe allowed for this to happen without any need for a director. That is what the evidence shows.
@BarrelsPolesandJack You are the one making the claim that god exists. It is not our place to prove that he doesn't exist. It is yout place to prove that he does exist, and that is something no christian, muslim, jew, hindu, etc. has yet to do. I've read different version's of the bible, and they say different things. The bible is full of contradictions. Prove to me that gos exists, without using the bible as a reference. It is impossible.
@PatrioticEagle50 Actually, I *can* prove He exists without the Word, because He's done many great things in my life, and I can hear Him when I pray. Having the Word, though, is just like some big science magazine full of fact and articles to you: it's all the proof I need.
@BarrelsPolesandJack Ok. The God of the OT is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction. Jealous and proud of it, a petty unjust unforgiving control freak, a vindictive blood thirsty ethic cleanser, a mysogynistic homophobic racist infanticidal genocidal fillacidal pestilential sadomascistic capricially malevolent bully. Sorry if that offends you, but regarding the concept of the greatest conceivable being. The OT God fails miserably.
How can you not believe in someone like God? It's really hard not to. I know he is real because of all the miracles I have seen happen, I have seen a lady that once was walking on a crutch be prayed for and immediately drop the crutch and start to walk. The same woman was in a wreck and hit by an eighteen wheeler that nearly decapitated her, and she is moving around fine today like it never happened... This is few of MANY miracles that I have seen. I am telling you that I would rather believe i
For anyone who is looking for a biblical explanation of the gospel and salvation, I would highly recommend checking out the scribd website that is listed on my channel. The scripture references given on there make it very clear and easy to understand.
"THE GOVERNMENT OF THE UNITED STATES IS NOT IN ANY SENSE FOUNDED ON THE CHRISTIAN RELIGION." (Treaty of Tripoli, Article 11: Written during the Administration of George Washington and signed into law by John Adams.)
..WOAW!!! GOD IS REALY DOING GREAT IN KRIS ALLEN's LIFE... i admire Kris' courage in singing this CHRISTIAN song and his BOLDNESS FOR the LORD'S SAKE!!!
he is not like the other hollywood performers who sold their soul to Satan for FAME, SEX and MONEY!!! GOD BLESS U KRIS!!
..woaw!!! GOD IS DOING GREAT in KRIS ALLEN's life... and i do admire his courage for singing that song... and his character of being bold in the LORD... HE is not like the other artist who sold their souls to Saran for FAME, SEX and MONEY!!!,, GOD BLESS YOU KRIS!!!
I know he says he isn't going to do a Christian album, but Kris REALLY needs to do a worship album. If he moved me so much on AI, how much more singing songs that glorify the Lord?
Praise God, Our creator because there is no other God but Jesus. I love this song and I thank God for using Kris Allen as an instrument to spread how wonderful God is.
Kris Allen totally put his heart into it. And for those who are trying to confuse him with Adam Lambert, get your facts straight before assuming which person has what problem.
Four common sense reasons why I think there is no god; A) Total absence from the natural world. No sign of a god, before, during or after, natural disastres B) The absolute absence of favoritism towards believers. Even chruches need lightning-rods to protect them from god. C) The absence of any reaction, when crimes are committed in his name. D) The suffering of the innocent. One could accept that the guilty must suffer, but children ???
@tallliza I understand why you think these things. But I know for a fact that God exists. I can't point to someone in the sky and say "hey look, its God." but I can point to specific situations where God is seen. The reason bad things happen is because God gave us a gift..called free will. We are able to choose our actions. And for the favoritism, would you like a God who has favorites? I wouldn't. God loves all of us. We all sin. No one is any better than anyone else. Hope this helps. :)
@simplyalina427 . And for the favoritism, would you like a God who has favorites? Indeed he has. The jews are his chosen people. All the rest are considered heathens or pagans
@tallliza I thought by 'bad things' you meant like things people to do harm others. Honestly, I don't know why the natural disaster things happen. But God never promised a perfect life. I don't have all the answers. But I challenge you to challenge God to show you he is real. I truly believe that he will. :)
Wish he will sing soundtrack for Waltdisney carttoon and voice for one character in it. His voice is so sweet and beautiful. I love it very much. thanks Amecrican idol
he is such an inspiration! and a powerful instrument to spread His word :) he is amazing singing this song convicting there is really greater things are yet to come :) amazing! singing with his heart.. with the holyspirit guiding him :) Amazing Lord, amazing... there is no one Like You God :)
Kris is one anointed person. In one year his entire world was changed once he won American Idol last May 2009. His brother said in a past interview that when Kris first tried out for American Idol (in June of '08), he lost his voice and couldn't sing. However, when he finally got the chance to audition, God healed him and he was able to sing miracuously. It's so amazing at how God works, to see him use Kris in such a huge limelight. Kris is incredible.
this song always makes me cry thinking about the people I helped in Alabama. We just made a dent there but God is gonna do so many more great things there. We sang this song there too and it was so awesome the whole room was feeling God move.
i will always admit Adam had the better voice, but Kris had the better musicallity, and the better heart, and im not saying that becuz Adam is gay, im saying it becuz Adam is crazy (which is seen at his live performances and his music videos) and Kris is with God
AMEN! an "idol" that is a rightful one for this country! One who is not afraid to show his love for the Lord of the Earth, and one who will sing Christian songs! Kris, I stand behind you and applaud you for being a role model for so many!
@jag7416220 The Lord even works through secular choises. He isn't the first one. There were many past winners that are and are very involved in the Chiristian Music Ministry. God Bless.
sorry dude, I'm from Little Rock and don't know him personally, but I know his family and friends and he's a legit devoted christian. Too bad people feel that way. Jesus called it: The world will hate christians like Kris because the world hated Him first.

@Fishqueen1972 Why are you glad you're not a Christian?
BarrelsPolesandJack 5 months ago
@BarrelsPolesandJack I support humanistic ideals. To me, religion in general is sectarian. I prefer more of a universal ideology. I value evidence based beliefs systems. Although I do agree with some Christian teachings, but some of the teachings I consider immoral. That is basically it. I am firm believer in freedom though so I would never advocate making religion illegal, but when it crosses the line through enforcing Christian ideas through law> i am against that.
Fishqueen1972 5 months ago
@Fishqueen1972 That doesn't really answer my question. I'm a Christian, and what I love most about it is the fact that I have a Father who loves me and has given me the privilege of spending time with Him. What is it about Christianity that you don't like? I know God, and I know His Word, and nothing about Him is immoral, so I'm afraid I don't understand what you mean. Care to enlighten me?
BarrelsPolesandJack 5 months ago
@BarrelsPolesandJack 1) Well first off, I don't believe it is true. I believe all religion is manmade. I adore Kris Allen whether he is Christian or not. If I were to go into what I think is immoral & moral about the teachings of your religion then I would just offend you. The fact that you enjoy the comfort you get from it is probably one positive thing about religion in general. I wish that was enough. Perhaps it is for most people.....cont.
Fishqueen1972 5 months ago
@BarrelsPolesandJack 2) cont..But for many who claim that religious belief makes them happy, they dont seem to be happy unless everyone else believes it to. This poses a problem for the human race when it comes to peace & getting along with your neighbor. So I can understand why this "Father" image who loves you can be comforting & that isn't what i don't like about religion. It some of the other aspects of it. It serves no purpose for me to explain to you what teachings I disagree with.
Fishqueen1972 5 months ago
@Fishqueen1972 I don't know what god you're talking about, but my God is not like that at all. He is loving, kind, patient, understanding, and ESPECIALLY forgiving. That's why He sent Christ to die on the cross for us. Think about it. He loved us (both me AND you) so much that He sent His OWN Son to die as a perfect sacrifice, JUST for us!

@BarrelsPolesandJack I am talking about Moses' wargod Yahwah described in the OT. They changed the character from God to a general & asked kids if his actions were right or wrong. Overwhelming the answers were not in favor of this character being moral. Sorry, but if GOd is God he can forgive without a sacrifice. He is God for goodness sake. Besides, from a logical standpoint, if Jesus didn't really die then it really wasn't a sacrifice at all. The story just doesn't map with reality.
Fishqueen1972 5 months ago
@Fishqueen1972 I think it does. God's Word can relate to the way reality is now. Don't believe me? Read the book of Isaiah. I was only a few verses into it before thinking, "hey, this sounds exactly like the world is now." God is unchanging, and the Bible shows that.
BarrelsPolesandJack 5 months ago
@BarrelsPolesandJack Sorry. But I don't have to sacrifice my son in order to forgive someone. Also, we don't punish people for an infinity for finite crimes. Secondly, most Christians I know cherry pick the Bible and there is no concensus. Whatever you read into it is your subjective interpretation. What someone else may get out of it is their interpretation. The Bible is ambiguous & vague. There is nothing in the Bible that couldn't have been written by the people of that era.
Fishqueen1972 5 months ago
@Fishqueen1972 Yeah, but that's not our responsibility; it's God's, which is why He made us the way we are. And yes, people CAN read the same passage from the Bible and get a different interpretation, and then, they can read the same passage AGAIN and get something totally different out of it. That's why it's called the Living Word of God. Look; I'm not going to argue the Bible with you. There is nothing more satisfying than surrendering to God, and I wish you could experience it.
BarrelsPolesandJack 5 months ago
@BarrelsPolesandJack "There is nothing more satisfying than surrendering to God" Again, this is subjective. This is a matter of your opinion. Everyone is different and there is nothing about your belief system that is better than mine. It is just a matter of preference. I prefer evidence based belief systems that is based on logic. You will never find an atheist accusing someone of being a witch, the anti-christ, or accusing gays of bringing on the wrath of God.
Fishqueen1972 5 months ago
@Fishqueen1972 But it's NOT just my opinion. There's millions of people out there who can testify to what I've just said. And the Bible CAN be proven. Just look through history. Heck, even look at what's happening now! Everything that's going on RIGHT THIS VERY MOMENT has been PREDICTED by people of the Bible, by GOD. We are in the last days of this earth, and the will of God WILL prevail. And true Christians don't judge in a self-righteous manner, just as Matthew 7 tells us not to.

@BarrelsPolesandJack Just because a majority of people believes something does make it true. Look at how many people believe the words of Mohammad. There have been thousands and thousands of manmade religions, but you "a mere human" claim to know the right one. Sorry, but I see a pattern. I say that the most likely scenario is that they are all manmade given the track record. The supposed prophecies in the Bible are vague that it would eventually apply to anything...cont.
Fishqueen1972 5 months ago
@BarrelsPolesandJack cont...we already know through science how delicate life and the planet is. Science has predicted the end of the world could happen at anytime & that it definitely will. Even if happened tomorrow, that would not in anyway prove your Bible was not manmade. There are no specific dates or facts in these so called prophecies. Jesus was supposed to come back 2 milleniums ago. A thousand years from now, are people still going to be waiting for Jesus to return?
Fishqueen1972 5 months ago
@Fishqueen1972 Out of all the religions in the world, there's not one shred of proof that God was man-made. I don't know much about other religions, but I *CAN* say that for certain. Science has been helpful in more ways than one, but they don't have the answer to everything, either. No one knows when Christ is coming back, and it's not our place to know. Yes, the Bible was written by men, but by men who were INSPIRED by God, and I think the Word's consistency speaks for itself.
BarrelsPolesandJack 5 months ago
@BarrelsPolesandJack You don't know if the Bible was inspired by God. You were not there to witness any of it. And even if you were, you don't have the capability to look into a person's mind to know where they get their thoughts. The Bible's consistency? Have you ever studied its origins or how many times it is has been translated? Or how many times things have been added? Do you know the true history? If you did, I don't think you make that statement. Why isn't there a gospel of Jesus?
Fishqueen1972 5 months ago
@Fishqueen1972 True, but usually, the best way to know if something works or is the real deal is through HUMAN TESTIMONY. Do you buy a product without reading information on it first? It's the same deal with God, except He's not a product, and never has been; He is the LORD. What is the one thing that the Bible is consistent with? It's the hardships Christians like me have to go through because of unbelievers like you. Read it for yourself if you don't believe me. You can't prove it's not true.
BarrelsPolesandJack 5 months ago
@BarrelsPolesandJack "It's the hardships Christians like me have to go through because of unbelievers like you" What the heck are you talking about lady? What hardship? There are churches everywhere. The Constitution guarantees your freedom to believe & worship as you please. If you have a hardship b/c of unbelievers, then what do unbelievers have as a minority? You Christians have killed Jews, Muslims, scientists, and NON-BELIEVERS. So please, spare me your hardship.
Fishqueen1972 5 months ago
@Fishqueen1972 I'm sorry. I didn't mean it like that, and to be honest, I shouldn't have said that at all. All I know is that I am VERY proud to be a Christian, because as long as I've got God, I have hope in times of crisis. My family just went through a very tragic loss, and I am glad that I have God, because without Him, I wouldn't be here. I can't imagine ANYONE going through loss without God to lean on for support.
BarrelsPolesandJack 5 months ago
@BarrelsPolesandJack I never said you should be ashamed of it. Like i said, I adore Kris Allen regardless if his belief system is different than mine. I am not so sure if most Christians would feel the same if he was an atheist. I don't think the term "proud" is appropriate in the context that you used it, but I understand how comforting it can be. That part of it can be a good thing. It is all the other arbitrary, but potentially harmful crap that I don't like about religion.
Fishqueen1972 5 months ago
@Fishqueen1972 If he was an atheist, he wouldn't sing songs like this, but it wouldn't matter, because he'd still be loved by Christians anyway due to the fact that God loved us while we were yet still sinners. With all due respect, but Christianity is NOT a religion: it is a way of life, and I really wish you'd consider it, because you have nothing to lose and everything to gain. And I'm not talking about going to church. I'm talking about developing a close, personal relationship with Christ.

@BarrelsPolesandJack I have considered it already and looked into it. I can't make myself believe in something that my brain interprets as nonsense. Not even as a kid.

And I always thought the Isaac & Abraham made this God character out to be psycho.

Also, religion can lead to things like bans of gay marriage which is not fair nor civil in a free society. Banning gay marriage is harmful to people and children.

@Fishqueen1972 Just something to think about: if God doesn't exist, then why would COUNTLESS numbers of people die for Him? People won't die for something that they aren't sure is true.
BarrelsPolesandJack 5 months ago
@BarrelsPolesandJack First off, the majority of people who claim to believe in God fight for their life as if this is the only life they are going to get. Secondly, just because someone believes something to be true doesn't make it true. People have been willing to die for things besides God. And if they believe in an afterlife then they believe they aren't really dying, correct? This is not the kind of world/reality I would expect of omnipotent God.
Fishqueen1972 5 months ago
@Fishqueen1972 Again, if God didn't exist, people wouldn't give up their life for Him on a daily basis. There are people dying RIGHT NOW for His sake. People AREN'T going to die for something that they're not sure is real. It's common sense.
BarrelsPolesandJack 5 months ago
@BarrelsPolesandJack First off, many people are KILLING right NOW FOR HIS SAKE. So does that mean that God wants people to kill? No offense, but you need to take some critical thinking classes. It doesn't matter how many people believed that the sun revolved around the earth. It doesn't matter how many people believed the earth was flat. Human beings can be wrong. Your point makes no sense, let alone common sense.
Fishqueen1972 5 months ago
@Fishqueen1972 No, because the Bible doesn't condone murder. There is no one killing for God, and no proof of it, either. And I think what I'm saying makes PLENTY of sense. People just don't die for someone who they aren't 100% sure exists. They just don't.
BarrelsPolesandJack 5 months ago
@BarrelsPolesandJack If they believe God wants them to do it then they are killing for God. Do you not understand the concept of believing in something that isn't true? Do you not understand the idea that human beings can be wrong and not even know it? Human beings are limited and fallible. There is no evidence for god. I would not expect a world or Universe to be like it is if there was a good omnipotent God. I just wouldn't. You should check out the videos of youtuber called KNOWNNOMORE.
Fishqueen1972 5 months ago
@BarrelsPolesandJack Here is my second response. I hate to tell you this, but many people believe in God that are not Christians. Christianity isn't the only representation of God believers. Fact, there have been thousands of religions in human history. Fact, your NT Bible has only been around 2,000 and humans have been around for at least 100,000 years.Besides, it does say in the Bible to stone your disobedient children. I consider that murder. Why does the Bible say that?
Fishqueen1972 5 months ago
@Fishqueen1972 That was true until Jesus Christ's sacrifice on the cross eliminated the need for such actions. Nowadays, however, I think stoning your kid when they're disrespectful to you might actually make kids think twice about how they act, but I digress. True, there ARE other religions, but the one thing that they DON'T have is Jesus Christ, who is the only way to Heaven. Those who claim God told them to murder are not real Christians and believed a lie that Satan concocted. He does that—
BarrelsPolesandJack 5 months ago
@BarrelsPolesandJack Murder is murder. A BLOODY sacrifice doesn't change that. If a devil does exist, it is so obvious the Bible was inspired by it. Although the BIble has a FEW good concepts that a kindergartener could figure out, it is also filled with immoral barbaric filth.
Fishqueen1972 5 months ago
@Fishqueen1972 —((cont.)), you know. Yes, humans are flawed, and each and every one of us are born into sin after what Adam & Eve did in the Garden of Eden. You say there is no evidence of God, and yet, in the Bible, it clearly depicts certain places that DO exist, to this day. How do you explain the places in Israel where Jesus was said to have been? ALL of the places that the Bible depicts? And what about the fact that they actually FOUND Noah's Ark?
BarrelsPolesandJack 5 months ago
@BarrelsPolesandJack If God created Adam & Eve and they sinned and he doesn't like it, then you don't make it so they can procreate only to create more sin. Is your God retarded? People don't create themselves, they are forced into existence. No one asked to born as descendents of Adam & Eve. The creator is responsible for his creation. If a scientist creates a monster, you don't blame the monster, you blame the scientist. This is simple logic.
Fishqueen1972 5 months ago
@BarrelsPolesandJack Thirdly, all the places and people of Mohammad existed, does it make what Mohammad said true. If that is the case then Islam is true. The same logic applies to Joseph Smith and the mormon religion and so on and so on. Prove to me that Noah's Ark was found. You just can't say it. You have to provide evidence. Just because people and places existed in a book doesn't prove the accuracy of the events. You can believe want you want via faith, but proof isn't something you have.
Fishqueen1972 5 months ago
@Fishqueen1972 My God is the only One who proves His love all throughout scripture. As for Noah's Ark, I saw the news report on it when I was younger. I can't remember which mountain they found it on, but I DO remember seeing it on TV. You can deny God all you want, but I am living proof that He exists. I have a personal relationship with Him, I know His Word, and the more I read it, the more I have come to know Him, and He is NOT as you say He is. There is NOTHING immoral about Him or His Word.
BarrelsPolesandJack 5 months ago
@BarrelsPolesandJack Again, I believe the Bible was manmade. Most of the stuff in the Bible is ignored in modern times so obviously it isn't moral.I am not insulting your God. I don't believe in God. I am criticizing man's description of him.They did an experiment with school children.They replaced the Lord of the Bible with a human general & asked if this general in the story was moral. The results were not flattering. Why is that if the Lord were human then people would consider him immoral?
Fishqueen1972 5 months ago
@Fishqueen1972 And again, the Bible was written by men INSPIRED by God, who let His Spirit move through them back then. He can't do that in today's society (well, I mean, He can, but I think He's realized there's no point in it) because people would be deemed crazy and institutionalized. God is NOT human, and His ways are not our ways, nor are they for us to understand. God cannot be compared to anything because He is God, the LORD Almighty, the Absolute Authority of the universe.
BarrelsPolesandJack 5 months ago
@BarrelsPolesandJack So if God created the Universe just to create souls in order for him to torture these souls after bodily death then would you be ok with that? Seriously, if God is God and he enjoys torture then it is ok for him to do what he wants? And you said that "His ways are not our ways, nor are they for us to understand." Then what is the point of your religion? See, you can't come up with logical answers. You have to resort to non-sensical answers that actually refute yourself.
Fishqueen1972 5 months ago
@Fishqueen1972 That's not how God is. I have already explained that to you. You just don't understand it, and you CAN'T understand it until you come to know Him personally. End of discussion. Have a nice life.

@BarrelsPolesandJack I understand the concept of GOODNESS. And I can imagine a perfect being. The version of God based on the OT & NT just doesn't cut it for me and I have given good reasons that you have not logically refuted. That being said. If you are happy with your subjective personal belief system then fine. I don't have a problem. I was just being honest. As long as people don't force it on me, then we can celebrate what we do have in common. HUmanistic ideals.
Fishqueen1972 5 months ago
@Fishqueen1972 If you understand what true goodness is, then you understand God. That being said, faith is not logical. Heck, LIFE is not logical, so I don't know what you're looking for as far as "logic" goes. Just like beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so is logic. There is no need to refute something that I know is true with evidence that you can't (and don't want) to see.
BarrelsPolesandJack 5 months ago
@BarrelsPolesandJack Good is super. Good is natural. Good is just not supernatural. Sorry. Girl. I don't believe you have superhuman powers to have special knowledge of things you can't possibly have. You have not provided empirical evidence. And no, there are objective laws of logic such as the law of non-contradiction and law of self identity. OT God is god of war and God of peace as the Bible says. That violates the law of non-contradicition. It is logically impossible for that to be true.
Fishqueen1972 5 months ago
@Fishqueen1972 And one more thing: ALL proof is man-made, because that's just the way humans are; so, in a way, nothing any of us says is neither viable nor plausible, becase we all see what we want to see. You can choose to see the Bible and my God as something not worth giving your life to. As for me, I'm going to stick with the only One who will NEVER let me down, is always there for me, and has a placed picked out just for me in His kingdom!

@BarrelsPolesandJack To respond to this, the scientific method actually resolves this issue. Gaining knowledge thru the scientific method works & it is willing to admit when it is wrong unlike religion. You don't see scientists meeting every Sunday holding eachother's hands to have faith that gravity will work. I wasn't trying to convert you away from your religion. It would be pointless. The human character is to self centered. Just look at your post. "ME" "ME" "ME". I can't compete with that.

The bible is full of contradictions. Prove to me that gos exists, without using the bible as a reference. It is impossible.

Sorry if that offends you, but regarding the concept of the greatest conceivable being. The OT God fails miserably.

Four common sense reasons why I think there is no god; A) Total absence from the natural world. No sign of a god, before, during or after, natural disastres B) The absolute absence of favoritism towards believers. Even chruches need lightning-rods to protect them from god. C) The absence of any reaction, when crimes are committed in his name. D) The suffering of the innocent. One could accept that the guilty must suffer, but children ???

@tallliza I understand why you think these things. But I know for a fact that God exists. I can't point to someone in the sky and say "hey look, its God." but I can point to specific situations where God is seen. The reason bad things happen is because God gave us a gift..called free will. We are able to choose our actions. And for the favoritism, would you like a God who has favorites? I wouldn't. God loves all of us. We all sin. No one is any better than anyone else. Hope this helps. :)

Kris is one anointed person. In one year his entire world was changed once he won American Idol last May 2009. His brother said in a past interview that when Kris first tried out for American Idol (in June of '08), he lost his voice and couldn't sing. However, when he finally got the chance to audition, God healed him and he was able to sing miracuously. It's so amazing at how God works, to see him use Kris in such a huge limelight. Kris is incredible.

Didn't know that Kris is a Christian !
I too was mad when Kris won the Idol, but now am very glad that he won. Great are His ways and plans......so much above ours....
I hope that Kris uses his talent and the stage provided to him to sing for God's glory

this song always makes me cry thinking about the people I helped in Alabama. We just made a dent there but God is gonna do so many more great things there. We sang this song there too and it was so awesome the whole room was feeling God move.

i will always admit Adam had the better voice, but Kris had the better musicallity, and the better heart, and im not saying that becuz Adam is gay, im saying it becuz Adam is crazy (which is seen at his live performances and his music videos) and Kris is with God

AMEN! an "idol" that is a rightful one for this country! One who is not afraid to show his love for the Lord of the Earth, and one who will sing Christian songs! Kris, I stand behind you and applaud you for being a role model for so many!

sorry dude, I'm from Little Rock and don't know him personally, but I know his family and friends and he's a legit devoted christian. Too bad people feel that way. Jesus called it: The world will hate christians like Kris because the world hated Him first.
