    What does this post have to do with Christianity?

    As I said, the post ended up going to the Old Testament.

    Please, let's try to keep this about Christianity.

    Can you do that? Seriously.

    - - - Updated - - -

    Once again, nothing about Christianity.

    Is it possible for you to keep on topic?

    BTW - you're wrong.

    Why might you ask. For the same reason you claim anomaly is wrong.

    Correct.
    No it isn't. That "religion of peace" practices what Mohammad said it should
    practice.
    Jesus wasn't a prophet. He IS God incarnate. That "religion of peace" doesn't
    acknowledge that fact.
    Seriously? The Qua'ran isnt' based on Judaism, it's based upon what Mohammad
    decided it would be based upon
    Correct, except about the Eucharist. The Eucharist is the Lord's Supper. Period.
    It has little or nothing to do with what's significant about Salvation, which is what the
    New Testament is all about.

    Are you Roman Catholic?
    I disagree. They need to recognize, i.e. understand, that Jesus is the only
    answer. There isn't another.

    Christianity isn't based upon works. Nobody can save themself.

    Not true. I've never made a bizarre refutation. Not once. You, on the othe hand,
    make bizarre, I dare say refutaions because they aren't, statements because you
    don't understand Christianity. There's nothing bizarre about that because the truth
    isnt' bizarre.
    Where does Jesus approve of bloodshed, child killing, burning, stoning, genocide?
    I mean besides never.

    You've never, ever, made an accurate post about Christianity. Not once. You're hell
    bent on making up your own denials with no evidence whatsoever. Facts be damned.

    Your next fabricated and facts be damned denial in 3... 2... 1...

    Which you haven't done. Why is that?
    No it isn't how Christianity started. Who told you that? Can you provide
    evidence of your inaccurate statement? I'd like to see it.
    Not true. Can you verify your incorrect statement?
    That "religion of peace" started the Crusades. I'm glad you brought it up.
    You ARE familiar with the Crusades and how that "religion of peace" began
    it's murderous "crusade" against Byzantine, Greece and North Africa and
    later Jerusalem? I think not.

    Pride are for those who extremely will deny the truth at all cost and falsely claim God is not good. Our salvation is in God's hands not yours.

    Beware of imitation and fake brands that is why your vacuum cleaner failed. God has no vested interest that is why God's Kingdom is not of this world. Atheist have lots of vested interest and Christians stand in their way.

    Yes God is above all of those that is why there are so many who wants to destroy God.

    Bible writers were holy gifted men and we get to know them through their exemplary life, knowledge, truth, integrity, honesty and spirituality.

    No spiritually holy man will make false claims about God only false spiritual men will do that.

    It is not just an insult to claim humans are apes it is not true in fact I am sure of the apes or monkey can communicate with you they'll tell you to stop claiming they are humans or humans evolved from them. The theory that humans evolved from apes started from colonial Europe to exert colonial European superiority over their none European colonies. In fact Africans, Orientals, Americans, Malays they do not share or accept white colonial Europe's claim that all humans evolved from apes. That is why modern science today have started to change that concept that humans and apes evolved separately from single source.

    The church and science has no conflict at all. The church has been and will always be leading the way in the advancement of science.

    They believe in God or not is of their own choice with or without my sharing of truth.

    They demand that we accept their misguided science we only share true science.

    There is no genealogy that fits humans evolving from apes or apes from humans. Remember the simple argument or logic with several ape species and human races from which ape did each human race evolved from? And if there was a single ape that evolved to produce several other ape species and other human races then who, what is this single ancestor of both ape and humans? How about the creatures such as cats, dogs, fish, birds did they evolved also from this single ape? Or did they all evolved according tot heir own kind?

    Everyone can believe according to their will and we are here to share the truth only. In fact you yourself can I say....an impediment to believers and have no need to explain why not believe in Genesis, but every reason to tell others to not to believe in it.

    God is for real there is nothing for me to falsely project anything negative about God.

    Truth is itself will do a good job that is why your false claims have all been debunked. Cut and pasted actual Biblical verses not your false claims.

    An amateur apologist is all is needed here.


    It is silly for anyone to claim the Bible is not actual history that is why I share with you Biblical historicity.

    Your post is clear I don't need to assume anything.


    The Bible is what it is, it is the way, the truth;
    Abraham Lincoln: In regard to this Great Book, I have but to say, it is the best gift God has given to man. All the good the Savior gave to the world was communicated through this book. But for it we could not know right from wrong. All things most desirable for man's welfare, here and hereafter, are to be found portrayed in it

    Your false claims about the Bible required attention that is why as a Christian I need to speak out. The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.

    The Bible has become stronger century after century.

    I don;t need to convince you of anything you have already made up your own mind.

    If zealots are the only that will insist they are the only one that know about the Bible then does this mean you are all wrong with your claims about the Bible?

    Christianity started with Jesus Christ.
    With out Jesus Christ no Christianity.

    The Crusades were instrumental in saving Western civilization.

    What did Jesus ever do that qualifies him as God? He just did a couple of magic tricks. Now if he was still wiggling on the cross after 2,000 years you might have a point for discussion.

    Christianity started with Paul preaching that Jesus rose from the dead. That's the whole point of Christianity.

    The Crusades were useful in disrupting further muslim conquests in Europe but the expulsion of the muslims and Jews from Spain was just as important. When the Turks didn't come to the aid of the muslims in Spain it signified the end of effective Islamic military power.

    When Jesus returns in Revelation he kills all life and destroys the Earth. Then he throws most of humanity into the lake of fire. He's not a nice character.

    That is so silly! If such a creature as God exists and if he created the whole cosmos and everything in it how could such a puny insignificant thing as man destroy such an entity? Such an idea that man could destroy a real God creature is insane. But what man can do is to destroy all of the fakes, the imaginary gods created by con men to fool gullible superstitious people. There are countless stories in the Bible where "prophets" were able to destroy people's favorite deities because those creatures were not real gods.

    My reply certainly isn't just a personal one. Ask millions of Jews. In fact, ask historians.

    Prostitution has always been with us and was accepted in the old world. Prostitution is not illegal in the UK, and until last year it was not illegal in Canada. So much for Christianity making things better.

    How could anyone back then worship Satan when Satan wasn't even known to exist. It was only when Christianity demoted HaSatan into an enemy of God that we have the devil - Satan.

    Who are you to dictate what someone should believe. The verse you quote had nothing to do with the devil who was unknown at that time.

    You really need to do more study.

    so you wouldn't believe them.

    you do realise what an awkward position this puts you in as someone who believes their deity will come back at some point, don't you? you either believe people when they claim god gives them messages or you don't. you're in no position to differentiate a lie from the genuine article - and content is no indicator. what are you going to do?

    definitely too dim.

    WarRen quote

    I had a vacuum cleaner that failed. But is was neither imitation or fake. It was the genuine article and accepted as the genuine article when I registered it for guarantee. However as you have failed to present many knowledgable answers the question remains - What are you? You have little knowledge of the real Bible and Mitt relies heavily on GotQuestions. And GotQuestions answers are questionable in the light of the Tanakh teaching.

    One day a highly specialised computer is going to give us the answer to the Ultimate question. When will man destroy himself? I hope it's not tomorrow, I'm meeting my son for a game of pool.

    Science is flexible, religion is not....or the kill gays parts of the Bible would have been removed many years ago. Flexible is good...inflexibility is not.

    Many have, you ignore.

    Yes it is, read the entire bible.

    It is true, prove me wrong.

    Does it matter who started it? The crusaders were nothing like what Jesus taught.

    You don't get a free pass with this bologna!

    If it's wrong today then it was wrong yesterday... and instead of encouraging people "back then" to behave in these manners this god of yours should have done the right thing and inform them that burning and stoning folks was just plain wrong! This god is a psychopath!

    I'm not even going to address the rest of this nonsense as it is so far beyond ridiculous... and you will continue to make up excuses for this god's psychopathic behaviors.

    It's simple you will never convince any reasonable person that an all knowing, all loving god that created the entire universe has an excuse for allowing and or encouraging any behavior that is psychopathic and plain wrong regardless of the time period it took place in!

    If this god is so stupid as to think it was ok at any time to burn or stone people to death it is no god worth worshiping and you are wasting your time with the whole silly shenanigans !

    Oh I do apologize... I had no idea that christianity had come to it's senses and completely threw out the Old Testament part of it's religion.

    Good for them it's about time they came half way to their senses!
