Has it ever dawned on you that the last thing they wanna hear is your rambling about some phantom divine being and what this being done to you. They wanna listen to it with as much interest as a detailed description of a fat blokes, who really suck at whiping his ass, hemorrhoids and the problems they cause him

If you don't want to hear all kinds of opinions, then you probably shouldn't be on a religion forum. I don't agree with the your rambling beliefs, but I sure do listen and try to see where you are coming from. And, I do believe that I am from America, and I have freedom of speech. I can talk... you don't have to listen. I can write... you don't have to read.

It would confirm that you're right, that's what....

I know it would confirm that I'm right, if everything could be proven historically. That's a given. But, then, faith wouldn't be necessary. It wouldn't mean much to believe in something that had a list of facts. I believe in the law of gravity, because it can be proven, but does that make my belief in it special at all, no. I don't have to have faith to believe in gravity or any other scientifically proven fact, because it is proven. When it comes to God, you can't see Him physically and You can't prove that He created the world or that He sent His Son to die for us and rise again on the third day scientifically, but you can have enough faith to believe those things. And, that's what makes it so special. When people have enough faith to follow God even when the path is bumpy and unclear, it pleases Him.

First thing first MicahLynn, do you know the difference between peoples use of they and I ? Cause if you do why the hell do you respond with you to my use of they?

but I sure do listen and try to see where you are coming from

no you dont, cause whatever those who dont believe in your god got to say about it . You reply with theres something missing in your life crap. And now onto me and about my so called "rambling belief". Well beside that I dont believe in an almighty deity you really dont know what I believe cause I really never said what I truly believe in here.

You don't really say, which would make it rambling. You want to tell me? Because I will gladly listen.

And, no, I don't go knocking on peoples doors, but I would if I thought they would open up and listen.

what makes it rambling is all the talk your fellow believers do

Believing in something has to be better than believing in nothing. And, hey talk can be good. Luke 19:39-40 says, "Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to Jesus, 'Teacher, rebuke your disciples!' 'I tell you,' He replied, 'if they keep quiet, the stones will cry out.'" I'm not going to keep quiet when I know something so amazing! When you know the Truth, you don't want to keep it in, you want everyone you've ever met to know about it too.

Well, Blue Nocturne, I am glad to see that you have given this some thought, at least. I believe that all of those passages are true. Most of them already took place and you are reading to deep into them by saying they did not. You aren't interpreting the text exigetically. Some of them are references to His second coming, for instance the verse about Kings becoming silent. I'm sorry that you are so convinced that Jesus is not the Messiah that you'll do everything in your power to disprove the fulfillment of prophecy. When I read that passage in Isaiah, I think of Jesus, the perfect Son of God, fully divine and fully man, who came down to earth to suffer for the sins of the world that the world might one day truly bring glory to God, as it was created to do. I wish you could know that Messiah, the Only Messiah: Jesus Christ.

Right i mean they way Christians interpret it is better then the founders of the religion it self 🙄
