Proof that Jesus exists not existed

Started by Trickster16 pages

The point being made is that even though you may be convinced that Christianity is 100% correct, most of the people you quote the Bible to don't agree with you.

You have given no evidence as to why the Bible is correct, nor why you believe it (except "look around you"😉. Many other religions could be just as right as yours. If you prove that the Bible is 100% correct, then feel free to quote passages from it as fact. The thing is, you can't.

(On a side note, I don't think you can say that when somebody says something like "holy shit", they are taking the name of the Holy Spirit. And when people say something like Goddamn, they aren't hating God, rather they are calling upon to God to damn whatever it is they are talking about.)

Some believers just accept what they are taught by religious leaders and don' t go any further. A person who is so devoid of real standards is hardly in any position to ask why other people don' t agree with their religion. Some do engage in some critical thinking, but they apply their skepticism principally to other religions and much less to their own. They engage in a clear double-standard which doesn' t seem to bother them. Whatever skepticism is applied to another religion, it should be applied to one' s own as well. People are inclined to overemphasize evidence that favors their beliefs, and ignore evidence that disconfirms their beliefs. It' s difficult to be critical of what you believe, but it is important to try.

He didn't have to, He gave that assignment to the apostle Paul.

1 Thessalonians 4:13-18
13 But I do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning those who have fallen asleep, lest you sorrow as others who have no hope. 14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who sleep in Jesus.
15 For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who are asleep. 16 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. 18 Therefore comfort one another with these words.

Yeah, Paul the HERETIC!!!.............Jesus though may have been edited was talking about the second coming.......not a secret Rapture where we will be left behind.......That is a later teaching that came into effect in the latter 1800's................

So what you are saying is you are a worshipper of Paul them..........Of course you are........it's called the Pauline Doctrine.....Not the words of Jesus. And what I have said Jesus never taught a secret Rapture.....

Many unbelievers will continue what they do even during the time of God's Judgements on a unbelieving earth:

But the rest of mankind who were not killed by these plagues, DID NOT REPENT of the works of their hands, that they should not worship demons and idols of gold, silver, brass, stone, and wood, which can neither see nor hear nor walk. And they DID NOT REPENT of their murders or their sorceries of their sexual immorality or their thefts.

Revelation 9:20-21

Sad isn't it?

You will never see it happen. Your children will never see it happen. Their children will never see it, and their children will never see it.

Buddha was 300 years before Jesus. Some say that Jesus was a reincarnation of Buddha, but I don't think so.

The teachings of the Lotus sutra, written 300 years before Jesus, agrees with the teaching of Jesus. The truth is the truth.

To each their own level of understanding. You cannot understand the truth, because you and I are the truth.

The Bible--God's Holy, Infallible, living Word--was never intended to be a scientific textbook, but a revelatory work designed to disclose God's will for humanity. In addition to this His (God's) plan for our salvation.

Then why do people argue for creatonism? God speaks to us via the bible not to communicate scientific fact, but issues of morality.

how about finding things to disprove the bible?
it can't be done.
